White Jesus Part I / II

I’ll ride your diamond
Ride it rough
Don’t matter
Taste imitation crushed
Ride your diamonds
Ride it uncut
Don’t let that gem catch you crying
Ride your diamond

Ride the ice
Frosty ice
Well, she’s frosty, yeah
She’s just my type
Do you wanna do it?
Come on
It’s a doom, doom, doom
Go back to my tomb
Where we can do it
Yeah, do it
Let’s do it
Ow, I’ve got that tombstone feeling between the sheets
Stone heads
Stone heads
Stone heads
Stone file

I’m rock that’s burgers and shines
Able best friend to the sharing-kind
Ride your diamond
Ride it rough
You can shotgun but you’ll never get enough
Rough diamonds
Ride it
Ride it hard
Keep on guzzling
But you’ll never fill an empty heart
Ain’t got no diamonds
Ain’t got no stones
I’m standing at the counter all the alone
Ride your diamonds
Does that jewel make you drool
Make you salivate
Can you crack that safe
Ride your diamonds
Ride your, ride your, ride your diamonds
Yeah, ride that precious piece, mount that diamond back
keep thrilling with that diamond bit till it cuts class
Ride your diamond
Ride your, ride your, ride your diamond
Ride your diamond
Ride
