Stars

When I was young, I figured if I became a star
 Maybe they wouldn't seem as far
 Maybe I wouldn't dream as hard
 Wanna stop, but all I hear is that applause
 I'm addicted to the energy it causes
 I wanna relive it every minute, that star
 Know I'm a shine despite all of my hardships
 I consider them lessons instead of losses
 My old Nikes wouldn't fit, so I tossed 'em
 They wasn't fit for the fire I had to walk through
 A lot of disappointments, a lot of promises
 A lot of niggas fell off, they lack confidence
 They had a dream but didn't know how to conquer it
 It's not your accomplishments, it's what's inside of us
 A star is a star and it shines regardless
 Of the money and the fame, it's what's in your heart
 So many stars
 So many stars, so many stars
 Which one to choose, which way to go
 Each one's a song for me
 So many stars to see
 So many stars, so many stars
 Which one to choose, which way to go
 Each one's a song for me
 So many stars to see
 Even if I reach the clouds, I'll by flyer than 'em all
 See, the thing about stars, they shine, some even fall
 So, you're forced to watch 'em, listen to 'em in your car
 Even at home on your screen, you can seem them from afar
 I be nervous at times, admit I get butterflies
 When the crowd yells "Ho! " it's a natural high
 Still after every show, I'm tryin' to see at least a grand
 Meltin' mic stands from LA to Japan
 Me and Ex on a mission, so respect intuition
 Blessed with a vision, obsessed with writin' lyrics
 I guess, it was written in the sky like a scripture
 Back in time, history, never said it was mine
 Now we rackin' up arenas, emceein', kickin' rhymes
 Labels wanna give me some G's, that's just fine
 A star is a star and it shines regardless
 Of the money and the fame, it's what's in your heart
 So many stars
