The Star

Snippet

“What Is Love? I have met in the streets a very poor young man who was in love. His hat was old, his coat worn, the water passed through his shoes and the stars through his soul” ― Victor Hugo

Scripture

Then the Lord spoke to Job out of the storm. He said:

Who is this that obscures my plans

    with words without knowledge?

Brace yourself like a man;

    I will question you,

    and you shall answer me.

“Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?

    Tell me, if you understand.

Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know!

    Who stretched a measuring line across it?

On what were its footings set,

    or who laid its cornerstone—

 while the morning stars sang together

    and all the angels[a] shouted for joy?  Job 38:1-7

Song

Written in the Stars by Tinie Tempah

[Chorus - 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

[Verse 1 - Tinie Tempah]

Let's go

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

Because I got more f_________ hits than a disciplined child

So when they see me everybody brrrrraps, brrrrrraps

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 the 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

[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/written-in-the-stars-lyrics-tinie-tempah.html ]

People work hard just to get all their salary taxed

Look, I'm just a writer from the ghetto like Malorie Blackman

Where the help or the sanity at? Damn

I used to be the kid that no one cared about

That's why you have to keep screaming till they hear you out

[Chorus]

[Verse 2 - Tinie Tempah]

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

They say the money is the route to the evilest 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 change a ten into a hundred grand

Everyone's a kid that no one cares about

You just got to keep screaming till they hear you out

[Chorus]
