[verse 3]
reason they say if you don't stand for nothin, you'll fall for anything
cause of that there i see the whole game on the ground
watchin what works, we all chasin' a hit
instead of takin a risk, so we changin' our sound now
now we all chase jewels, big trucks, and income
all that and then some, chase whateva trend come (but)
at least till the trends done (but)
but that don't change within none (yeah)
and i'm not sayin' to not have a Benz son, rings that shiny whateva things timely
those things help to unwind me (but)
but naw those things don't help define me
aim at the baiscs, aim you can make it
cause even when the whole game seems tainted
i'm a star without the chains and the bracelets
cause that fly shit is (inside of me)

[chorus]
i'm just tryin to be me
cause there's only one me
strip away material, (and i'm serious, hey)
cause seriously
these things don't make me
nothing can break me (no they can't)
i shine (of course) because a star is inside of me

[outro]
a glow is coming from my heart
open yours and find a star
(hey)
(hey)
