Kelis - Lil' Star

There is nothing special about me
I am just a little star
If it seems like I'm shining, it's probably
A reflection of something you already are
I forget about myself sometimes
When there's so many others around
When deep inside you it feels the darkest
That is where I can always be found
That is where I can always be found
That is where I can always be found

Just keep trying and trying
It's just a matter of timing
Though the grinding is tiring
Don't let them stop you from smiling
Just keep trying and trying
Sooner or later you'll find it
It's surprising how inspiring
It is to see you shining
'Cause in the dark of the night
You're all I can see
And you sure look like a star to me

There is nothing special about me
I am just a little star
If you try to reach out and touch me
You'll see that I'm not really that far
I may not be the brightest
Nor am I the last one you'll see
But as long as you notice
That's just fine with me
Everything's just fine with me
Everything's just fine with me Just keep trying and trying
It's just a matter of timing
Though the grinding is tiring
Don't let them stop you from smiling
Just keep trying and trying
Sooner or later you'll find it
It's surprising how inspiring
It is to see you shining
'Cause in the dark of the night
You're all I can see
And you sure look like a star to me

There is nothing special about me
I am just a little star
I've been running and jumping
But barely getting over the bar
I'll never be much more than I am
But that's in due time
But until then I'm guilty
And being human's my crime
Just being human that is my crime
Being human that is my crime

Just keep trying and trying
It's just a matter of timing
Though the grinding is tiring
Don't let them stop you from smiling
Just keep trying and trying
Sooner or later you'll find it
It's surprising how inspiring
It is to see you shining
'Cause in the dark of the night
You're all I can see
And you sure look like a star to me
