Written In The Stars

Tempah explained: "'Written in the Stars' is a real passionate track about the sort of struggle that I've had to face." (Source Written in the Stars Songfacts).

[Hook: Eric Turner] Oh, written in the stars A million miles away, a message to the main, oh Seasons come and go, but I will never change And I’m on my way (Let's go!) [Verse 1: Tinie Tempah] Yeah, you’re listening now They say they ain't heard nothing like this in a while That's why they play my song on so many different dials Cause I got more fuckin' hits than a disciplined child So when they see me everybody brrrap, brrraps Man I’m like a young gun fully black Barack I cried tear drops over the Massive Attack I only make hits like I work with a racket and bat Look at my jacket and hat, so damn berserk So down to earth, I’m bringing gravity back Adopted by the major, I want my family back People work hard just to get all their salary taxed Look, I'm just a writer from the ghetto like Malorie Blackman (Where the hell's all the sanity at?) Damn I used to be the kid that no one cared about That's why you have to keep screaming 'til they hear you out [Hook: Eric Turner] Oh, written in the stars A million miles away, a message to the main, oh Seasons come and go, but I will never change And I’m on my way [Post Hook: Eric Turner & Tinie Tempah] Oh, oh, oh, oh (oh) Oh, oh, oh, oh (oh) Oh, oh, oh, oh (oh) Oh, oh, oh, oh (oh) [Verse 2: Tinie Tempah] Yeah, I needed a change, when we ate, we never tipped Because we needed the change, I needed a break For a sec, I even gave up believing and praying I even done illegal stuff and was leaded astray They say that money is the root to the evilist ways But have you ever been so hungry, it keeps you awake? Mate, now my hunger would leave them amazed, great It feels like a long time coming, fam Since the day I thought of that cunning plan One day I had a dream, I tried to chase it But I wasn’t going nowhere, running man I knew that maybe someday I would understand Tryna change a tenner to a hundred grand Everyone's a kid that no one cares about You just gotta keep screaming until they hear you out [Hook: Eric Turner] Oh, written in the stars A million miles away, a message to the main, oh Seasons come and go, but I will never change And I’m on my way [Post Hook: Eric Turner & Tinie Tempah] Oh, oh, oh, oh (oh) Oh, oh, oh, oh (oh) Oh, oh, oh, oh (oh) Oh, oh, oh, oh (oh) Oh, oh, oh, oh (iSHI) Oh, oh, oh, oh (Eric Turner) Oh, oh, oh, oh (Let's go) [Outro: Eric Turner] Oh, seasons come and go, but I will never change And I’m on my way
