Rihanna: Diamonds Meaning
Song Released: 2012
Diamonds Lyrics
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 diamonds basically means that after being lonely for so long, she found who she wanted(chris brown) and knew that they would be together, despite all that they have gone through. and now she is choosing to be happy and live life with love. and how happy he makes her. and how she feel alive when she's with him. and how she is lucky to have found him.
examples are; "find light in the beautiful sea, i choose to be happy." the sea is a dark place, which could also be referred to as life, and she found a light, which makes her happy. meaning, she found love so she is choosing to be happy. "you're a shooting star a see, a vision of ecstasy." shooting stars a rare, and she found someone who she loves a lot and who loves her a lot back. and a vision of ecstasy, basically meaning joy, bliss, excitement, etc. -
I'm just gonna concentrate on two lines from this song - 1) "Find light in the beautiful sea." Reading from the Bible in Ezekiel 28:3 JEHOVAH was talking about Lucifer to Ezekiel when HE said, "You think you are God sitting on the throne of a god on your island in the midst of the seas." Now taking "light" from the line in her song, we also know that the name Lucifer means "light bearer", so this 'simple' statement from Rihanna means that she has found Satan/Lucifer and she sees 'eye-to-eye' with him and they're beautiful, also remembering that Lucifer was created as an exceedingly beautiful creature. 2) "You're a shooting star I see." Also from the Holy Bible, in Luke 10:18, Jesus Christ was talking to His disciples when He told them that He saw Satan fall from Heaven like a flash of lightning - self-explanatory really. They are much more hidden connotations in this song it's scary - Rihanna, what have you done? It's not too late, GOD can save you!

shes talking about satan! her songs have hidden messages which allows u to think its about love when really it aint..listen to the lyrics of umberella snm! people are blind and niaeve they need to understand what the music industery is about
-
She could be using "Shine bright like a diamond" as a simile for stars in the sky.
-
She sold her soul, she singing about her faith with the wicked one.
-
Aren't the song about her grandmother Dolly?
-
This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

You are all wrong, The song represents something she has seen in a vision. It is the God of living waters, He has diamonds of light that radiate throughout his body. He is revealing himself to her, He has looked through the spectum of time and opened her eyes to truth. He is the creator and the one who planted the seed of life. He is the one that reveals the coming catastrophe of this world. We will soon roll over, And start over with a new King, Destined for greatness, Sharing his vision with the new world. Prepare yourselves, the time is near.

This song is about her relationship with Chris Brown. This is not the first time she has referred to herself and Brown as "diamonds" as she did so in the Calvin Harris song We Found Love when she referred to them as "yellow diamonds in the light", another song obviously about Brown. Rihanna is telling Chris to shine bright in his fame. Her emotions are as deep as the sea, and after all the pain she has through with him she still found her light and chooses to be happy by keeping a friendly relationship with Chris Brown despite all the strong opinions the media voices about her decision to remain in contact with him. Her referring to him as a "vision of ecstasy" is a play on the words as it is no secret she and Brown partook in the recreational use of the drug together as was seen in her video for We Found Love. When he holds her she feels more alive and they both are shining like diamonds or stars in the sky. She knew right away that they would connect and that this connection would be deeper than any love she has ever felt. She wants them to just go on loving each other tonight and to be on the same page with that love, eye to eye, in the way they feel and make love with each other. Moonshine and Molly are drugs. Moonshine is a type of very strong liquor that is homemade in the South and Molly is a street-name for the drug ecstasy. They are doing these drugs together and dancing, arms up with palms in the sky, to the universe. Under the influence of these drugs they feel as though they are stronger and better than when on their own, without drugs or each other so she wants them to continue to do what it takes to shine like a star, or, in Rihanna's and Chris' case, a superstar on the planet. Superstars on the planet eventually die and are forgotten, they will never be as immortal as a shooting star in the sky, as Rihanna hopes. That's just my thoughts.

I feel like this song talks about the difficulties of a relationship when u find that special someone. It talks about being so in love that nothing else matters in the world. because the person is so perfect for her. They;re simple perfect for each other in every possible way! This song reflects on things such as "your a shooting star i see" which are said to be lucky and rare."When you hold me alive" is referring to the way he makes her feel when shes with him. She feels alive inside happy.
