Songfacts®:

  • The American release of Tinie Tempah's debut album, Disc-Overy replaced several tracks that were on the original UK release of the set. This emotionally charged Stargate production is one of the new songs on the repacked US disc.
  • The song is a duet with Ester Dean and finds Tempah opening up about a failed relationship, while the fragile American songstress expresses her pain, singing, "Does it make you happy/ To see me down/Does it make you dead to see me drown."
