Cross My Heart Lyrics


[Preeya Kalidas - Chorus]Strobe Lights flashing in my eyes
living for this moment and now I realise
I’ll never tell a lie lie lie
I’ll never let em in I leave em 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
[Skepta Verse 1]I’ve been around the World and back
screaming more money more paper
been doing it major
even Walkers aint go this much flavour
they say I’m superbad 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 some of them are here out of fear
[Chorus][Skepta Verse 2]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 Ima still keep it 10 multiplied by 10
forgive me if I’ve been acting a little strange
I never 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 em all in
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
listen, 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
[Chorus]

The Veronicas is a band consisting of identical twin sisters Jessica Louise Origliasso and Lisa Marie Origliasso (born December 25, 1984 in Brisbane, Australia). Speaking with Songfacts in a 2011 interview, Jess Origliasso explained that in 2001 she and her sister moved to Los Angeles, California, United States: “We call it our temporary home. We're children of the universe, our real home is definitely Australia. We both have homes back in Australia. But as far as where we've spent the majority of our growing-up time for the last 7 years, it's been Los Angeles.”

Contrary to popular belief, the band name in fact did not come from a character in Archie Comics. In an interview with MTV, the sisters explicitly stated this about the band name:
"The name is something we thought about for a long time, and we wanted it to be a girl's name, but we didn't want it to be 'the Jesses. We were very conscious of not wanting to make it a twin thing, because we think that's really tacky. So one day we saw the movie 'Heathers,' and there's a line where one girl asks, 'Are you a Heather?' and Winona Ryder's character answers, 'No, I'm a Veronica,' and so we went with that, because she was this kind of cool, unique chick with an attitude."

Born to Italian (Sicilian) parents on Christmas Day 1984, they grew up in Albany Creek, (northwest of Brisbane, Australia) where they attended Ferny Grove State High School and Wavell State High School. At an early age the girls expressed interest in performing; they participated with small local papers in shows on television, radio and horses.

The girls were picked up by Warner Bros. Records/Reprise Records' Sire Records label in 2004, for a reported sum of 2 million dollars. The girls write their own songs, and have also written songs for other artists like t.A.T.u.'s "All About Us" and Australian Idol winners Casey Donovan's "What's Going On" & Kate DeAraugo's "Faded".

The Veronicas dislike being called a female duo. "We like being called a band or group. We don't want to be a pop duo group with two girls singing about relationships, we have everything that a rock band would have, so we are a band," says Lisa. The rest of the band consists of:

Jungle George - Guitar
Sherman - Bass
Vik Foxx - Drums

The Veronicas debut album, entitled "The Secret Life of...", was released in Australia on October 17, 2005, entering the ARIA Album charts at the position of #7. Since then, it has peaked at #2 and gone 4x Platinum. Due to the success of the album, five singles have been released in Australia.

The band's lead single "Hook Me Up" from their second album was added to Australian radio on August 27, 2007. "Hook Me Up" was produced by Greg Wells (Timbaland, Mika, OneRepublic). The Veronicas' second album, also titled "Hook Me Up", was released on November 3, 2007, containing 12 tracks. The album in its entirety was leaked on the internet 8 days before its initial release. "Untouched" is the second single off the album, and was made available in stores and online on December 8, 2007.

Lisa has previously dated singer Ryan Cabrera and recently her engagement to former Australian Idol contestant Dean Geyer was broken off.

Jess is currently dating Azaria from Sydney band The Follow, but has been spotted kissing with MTV VJ Ruby Rose, although it is reported that it was only a stunt.
