Superstar
Mom, dad,
I'm getting over my anger
"cause I understand now, I didn't understand nothin' at all
and I probably still don't
except maybe for this....
I do love you!
CHORUS:
You are my superstar
You inspire me, by being who you are
You spoke so many words so true
I realize now
I owe so much to you
VERSE 1 :
Tried to plan my escape in so many ways
Been counting all the hours in my endless kiddie days
Waiting for the chance to prove to you
I can do it better then you did or ever will do
But then the day came
I saw I don't know shit
Things comin' my way
I have a hard time dealin' with
But in my low low downs
I learned what I know now
How did you do?
How did you pull through?
I'm not even half way of where you got to
CHORUS
VERSE 2:
Hey you there living somewhere far away
I blamed you "cause you wouldn't give me any time of day
You left me turned your back on your family
The love I had for you became you getting no respect from me
But then the day came, I saw the man in you,
ain't it senseless to keep blame,
I guess you did what you thought you had to do
In my low low downs
I learned what I know now
How did you do?
How did you pull through?
I'm not even half way of where you got to
CHORUS x2
VERSE 3:
for all the violence and cries...
I apologize!
Pretending I could never read the pain inside your eyes,
But I did and I know I caused drama.
But I was just a stupid kid longing for both her mama and her papa.
In this game where I thought I could make the rules,
I learned that ego-tripping is a path chosen by fools!
You had something, next to that...
I ain't got nothing going on
Except excuses to my unborn kid [that] I [just] couldn't carry on.
CHORUS x2
