Star Lyrics

Don't call me a star

Call me the comet that flew too far

Aimed for the sun and landed on the moon

Realized my mistake too soon

Cause all stars someday explode

Just like our sun when it gets old

But who are we to measure

It's still shining under all the pressure

My mamma always told me I would be somebody brilliant

But I'm afraid cause I'm just only one out of a million

I wish on every shooting star that my time to shine isn't too far

But I feel like I'm faltering

If my lungs are not my mind certainly is

Plagued with grades

Social charades and shit

I'm buying time with no dollar in hand

But it's about time that I took a stand

Don't call me a star

Call me the comet that flew too far

Aimed for the sun and landed on the moon

Realized my mistake too soon

Cause all stars someday explode

Just like our sun when it gets old

But who are we to measure

It's still shining under all the pressure

I only get one chance to get this right

My life is speeding past by the night

I'm only seventeen and I'm sick of dreams

The ambition to be breaking under the seams

The pressure to be perfect makes me sick instead

The days I'd rather die feel me with dread

If I get my wish

Will I make it last

Am I a one hit wonder

Some solar flare blast

People always told me I was gonna be great

But if I'm being honest I think I wanna wait

Fame sounds nice but like what I lead

I don't want my art to get away from me

Adult dreams don't fit on a teen

Fears are larger than they seem

And I know I'm not even that old

But I'm growing out of the mold

Don't call me a star

Call me the comet that flew too far

Aimed for the sun and landed on the moon

Realized my mistake too soon

Cause all stars someday explode

Just like our sun when it gets old

But who are we to measure

It's still shining under all the pressure

Gives life to everything around

So let's sit and listen to life's beautiful sound
