Diamondback lyrics
by Julia Cole
[Verse 1]
Everybody told me it was mine to keep
Two karats with a halo, platinum setting
'Cause blowin' up my future shouldn't come that cheap
It ain't my fault we called off the wedding
[Pre-Chorus]
And it all went wrong
I was tryin' on a white dress
When it all went wrong
I was tryin' on a white dress
And you were movin' on
[Chorus]
You shed me like skin you were goin' through
I shoulda heard the warning like a rattle in the rocks
Thank God a "yes" ain't an "I do"
Your toxic kiss coulda killed me
Hidin' out, sneakin' and sleepin' around
You turned forever into better that I find out now
You're a dime a dozen, snake in the grass
I'm the dime that still gave the diamond back
[Verse 2]
Coulda made a pretty penny tradin' it up
But every time I spent a cent, I'd be thinkin' 'bout what you did
Slitherin' and slidin' in the DMs
You did the pleadin', I did the leavin'
[Chorus]
You shed me like skin you were goin' through
I shoulda heard the warning like a rattle in the rocks
Thank God a "yes" ain't an "I do"
Your toxic kiss coulda killed me
Hidin' out, sneakin' and sleepin' around
You turned forever into better that I find out now
You're a dime a dozen, snake in the grass
I'm the dime that still gave the diamond back
Still gave the diamond back
[Bridge]
When it all went wrong
I was tryin' on a white dress (White dress)
When it all went wrong
I was tryin' on a white dress
And you were movin' on
[Chorus]
You shed me like skin you were goin' through (Oh)
I shoulda heard the warning like a rattle in the rocks (Rocks)
Thank God a "yes" ain't an "I do"
Your toxic kiss coulda killed me
Hiding out, sneakin' and sleepin' around
You turned forever into better that I find out now
You're a dime a dozen, snake in the grass
I'm the dime that still gave the diamond back
I still gave the diamond back
I still gave the diamond back
