Diamonds Lyrics

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond

Find light in the beautiful sea
I choose to be happy
You and I, you and I
We’re like diamonds in the sky

You’re a shooting star I see
A vision of ecstasy
When you hold me, I’m...

    THE SONG IS ABOUT LUCIFER

    Lucifer means light bringer.

    And the devil was cast from heaven to earth & fell like LIGHTNING, which she cunningly calls diamonds.

    The illuminati strikes again and people still believe this song is about chris! rhianna sold her soul to the devil! this song is about her love for him! diamonds refers to the diamond in the center of the satanic pentagram that she and other rockafeller members often make with their hands. finding light refers to findin knowlege or enlightenment beyond this land(a known illuminati principle). you and i is her and satan shining like diamonds in the sky is being above the rest of the world. notice that she says he "is" a shooting star,not that he is "like one" suggesting that she views satan as a celestial or "higher being". See a vision of ecstacy when u hold me refers to all the material possessions and money promised to her by satan and when u hold me means the literal hold he actually has on her. she feels the energy of the sunrays means she feels his pressence overcome her and knowing they would become "one refers to satan possessing and being in her. palms rising to the universe is symbolic of satan rising up in her as she uses more elicit drugs and alcohol he possesses her more. and lastly, we will never die means she and satan will live forever as long as he lives in and possesses her. wake up people! the illuminati use popular artists and other forms of media as aplatform to reach the masses quickly and most fall for it like robots chanting the "catchy" hooks that they program us to repeat. lets not condemn ourselves by allowing these satanists to infiltrate our minds and the minds of our children.

    I think the comments made by /on dec 8, nov 6, nov 4, and both nov 8, also 0ct 17 are the most accurate! Yes saten is real and some twisted people worship him, but I don't know if this song is talking about him. Yes the son of God is coming back to earth like a blazing star, but i don't think this song is talking about that either. Like a famous tv pastor once said "can i just eat my hamburger and enjoy it." Meaning sometimes we should just enjoy live and things in it and stop trying to read into everything and made it evil or bad!.....i.e. the song is beautiful, it talks about something special to Rihanna, who is a beautiful caribbean Artist!...How 'bout we just accept it as that!!!!

    It's illuminati. Those who are disagreeing did not look further into the subject and don't understand this at all. I know what Rihanna was referring to in Diamonds, now that its been clearly defined to me. SHE'S A DEVIL WORSHIPPER!!! She said so herself and that's the truth. I'm being dead serious. Those words really came out of her mouth. Although I still like her music, in an innocent way rather than a religious way. No, I'm not say that I'm an atheist because I'm not. Actually, I believe in Jehovah God. I listen to music as if the words are meaningless in the artist's true meaning in the words. I don't search for meaning, I just care if it sounds good. I won't let the words in music in the industry influence me, unless it's Holy music. This is not naivety, it's the truth. Plus, I already know that I'm gonna get negative comments about this, but I don't care. And I believe that every person has their own opinion that they probably hold strongly of and probably believes they're right and anyone who isn't on there side is an imbecile and knows nothing, but you really have to know your stuff before you try to say you're right and disprove someone. I have evidence. It's a YouTube video about illuminati in the industry. I don't have a link but the video is called "Satanism in the Industry". I don't know the exact words but it says something like that.

    Why is there crazy people allways saying that a smash hit from who ever artis , have to be about SATAN, the ones that are sick about that is them cuz the can only look for that. Despite all that i think the first comment is the best.

    rihanna mentioned that before diamonds her favourite song was umberella,so wierd. i get that she doesnt write most of her songs but its so wierd how the songs she chooses to sing have kinda like the same meaning or the same lyrics . shez always singing about something shining, lights , diamonds.apparently the diamond sign is the same as the jay-z sign. and whats up with the whole Egyptian themes like the pharoah tattoo she has and most of her live perfomances (iheart perfomance) etc are best on the same theme ... one thing is for sure, you dont just do things for the sake of doing them,, there is always a reason behind. WHATS THE REASON BEHIND? what happened to music? the quickest way to get to people (every person) is thru music. best be careful.

    Phosphorus has revealed himself to her, and this song is her acknowledgment to the world that they now have a contract.

    The many drug references imply that she discovered his light through her entheogenic experiences.

    The music video includes many symbols of him, and the horse and war scenes symbolize the turning over of history and the time of the morning star.

    People that claim Rihanna is a devil worshipper are so stupid! You over analyze the lyrics. Shit if you refer every song to the Bible Everyone is a devil worshipper. Get over yourselves people. The damn song is self explanitory. No need to bring up this whole Satan thing. this song was for Grand Dolly

    This is a beautiful song however if you do watch the video at the end. The position she is in as if she had been crucified....as did Jesus...only her crucifixion was in the water..I am not sure what the true meaning of this song is but would like to know
