Written in the Stars Lyrics
Oh written in the stars
A million miles away
A message to the main
Seasons come and go
But I will never change
And I'm on my way
Lets go
Yeah
You're listening now
They say they aint heard nothing like this in a while
Thats why they play my song on so many different dials
Cause I got more hits than a disciplined child
When they see me everybody braps braps
Man I'm like a young gun fully black Barrack
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 Im just a writer from the ghetto like Malorie Blackman
Where the hells all the sanity at
Damn, I used to be the kid that no one cared about
Thats why you have to keep screaming til they hear you out
[Chorus]
Oh Written In The Stars
A Million Miles Away
Tinie Tempah Written In The Stars
A Message To The Main
Seasons Come And Go
But I Will Never Change
And I'm On My Way
Yeah, I needed a change
When we ate we never took because we needed a change
I needed a break
For a sec I even gave up believing and praying
I even done the legal stuff and was leaded astray
Now money is the root to the evilist ways
But have you ever been so hungry that 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
Trying to turn a tenner to a hundred grand
Everyones a kid that no-one cares about
You just have to keep screaming until they hear you out
[Chorus]

i like the reference to teardrop by massive attack.
correction: "Mars is the closest thing to us besides the moon, then Venus."
You're right, reading a book really is clearly difficult when you see idiots try to claim that mars is closer to the earth then venus.

interesting song, love the title

Brilliant song. Yes it can refer to an athlete. But it refers mainly to someone who is rejected from the world but has a mission, a destiny "written in the stars". Now let me explain... This is about a man who as a child was beat up and neglected. Why? Because no one never understood him. Massive Attack is used to refer to the 90's, a song he listened to, while cuting himself from the outside world, to hide from whomever rejected him. Why did they reject him? Because he was poor. Considered crazy when he really is a genius. Understands what everybody doesn't. Now the only way he now has to be valued is through his work "racket and bat" (metaphor). The jacket and hat stand for the position he has. "I used to be the kid that no one cared about / That's why you have to keep screaming till they hear you out" is what proves my point. Now, even when he did the good, the "legal" would lead him astray. Now, he's making money, but he used to starve. He dreamt about it and acheived it. And that's it.
When we ate we never tipped because we needed the change
I love that he references Malorie Blackman. I was obsessed with the Noughts and Crosses books when I was a little younger!
i love this song and the video.
James, don't you think if someone is going to make a space ship they should do a little research of their own instead of taking a musicians word for it?
This comment is hilarious. I LOLed.
I think this song can represent rising athletes in the ranks, such as a star baseball player.
