Skepta, Preeya Kalidas - Cross My Heart lyrics

Strobe lights flashing in my eyes
Living for this moment, now I realise
I'll never tell a lie lie lie
I'll never let them in
I leave them on the outside
(Boy Better Know)
I promise you, I promise you, yeah
(the truth)
I promise you, I promise you, yeah (Skepta)
Cross my heart until the day I die

I've been around the world and back
Screaming more money, more paper
Been doing it major
Even Walkers ain't got this much flavour
They say I'm super bad like McLovin
Now man are calling me family all of a sudden
And I'm like "Mum
How come you never told me that
I had all these cousins?"
This corner I'm standing in
Never felt claustrophobic when I came
In 10 minutes ago
Now my backs against the wall
It's a good job I'm tall
So I can always see clear
Even with all the smoke in the air
I know some are standing here
Cause of loving fame
But a lot of them are here out of fear
Strobe lights flashing in my eyes
Living for this moment, now I realise
I'll never tell a lie lie lie
I'll never let them in
I leave them on the outside
(Boy Better Know)
I promise you, I promise you, yeah
(the truth)
I promise you, I promise you, yeah (Skepta)
Cross my heart until the day I die

It's time to go straight back
To the top with them
They tried to stop me but I'm doing it again
And all my real friends know I'm a
Still keep it 10 multiplied by 10
Forgive me if I've been
Acting a little strange
I never ever knew that one song
Could make my whole life change
Last week I boarded six planes
But I can't complain
This is the moment I've been waiting for
Picked myself off the floor and now I get a
Warm welcome when I walked in the door
I'm with Boy Better Know let them all in
But there's a flip side to all things
So before you sign yourself up
To the high life
Make sure you read the small print please
Listen to me when I'm talking
The guy you're looking at right now is
The guy I was this morning
I never had a pen but I made a mark
Even when I top the chart
I'll be the same guy that I was at the start
I hope to die I cross my heart
Strobe lights flashing in my eyes
Living for this moment, now I realise
I'll never tell a lie lie lie
I'll never let them in
I leave them on the outside
(Boy Better Know)
I promise you, I promise you, yeah
(the truth)
I promise you, I promise you, yeah (Skepta)
Cross my heart until the day I die
