Lyrics For A-Star By Jayhood
Intro]
As people in general, we just grow up with a lot of self-hate, you know, and a lot of self-doubts; we do not accept who we are. But as soon as you start accepting who you are is when you realize that you’re a star. You know, because it’s a dark world. You know, I believe that God put us here so we can light it up; positivity. Everybody out here is a star!
[Verse 1]
Yo, legends never die but their bodies do
So my soul is bullet prove
I heard your pillow talk, but never tell the nigga truth
I ain’t trying to be spiritual
But I barely read the bible
‘Cause my verses are too biblical, lyrical, miracle
Treat the beat like it’s a criminal
Put it right behind bars
I can never kill your pain but I can bandage up your scars
I don’t care about your money, I care more about your heart
Spit an image of reality, what a beautiful art
[Hook]
So God, please! I’ve been on my knees
I’ve been on the ground for way too long, I can barely breath
Been chasing dreams, I can hardly sleep
Put that on my moms, I ain’t gotta stop until I’m free
So God, please! I’ve been on my knees
I’ve been on the ground for way too long, I can barely breath
Been chasing dreams, I can hardly sleep
Put that on my moms, I ain’t gotta stop until I’m free
[Interlude]
I’m the most thugest nigga out here
I’m the most…
I have no fear, I have no fear
I have only ambition and I want nothing
And I’d do anything to protect and feed my family
And these niggas represent a thread
‘Cause I worked too hard for this…
[Verse 2]
Yeah, don’t let them take away your happiness
My life is like a movie with temporary characters
These niggas rather see you fail and struggle hard to pay the bill
They’d rather see you hooked up on the pill
Than hooked up on the meal
They criticize my skills, tell me that my shit ain’t hard enough
Don’t need no validation, so let them talk
‘Cause I don’t give a fuck
Self-love, pockets looking skinny, man
I’m about to get them buffed up
My momma raised a king
I ain’t gon’ front, I ain’t no buster
I’m a damn star
