Lil Star - Kelis

There is nothing special about me

I am just a lil star

If it seems like I'm shining brightly

It's probably a reflection of something you already are

I forget about myself sometime

When there's so many other around

When deep inside you feels 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 'em 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 lil star

If you try to reach out an touch me

You'll see 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 'em 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 lil star

I've been running and jumping but barely

Getting getting over the bar

I plan on being much more than

I am but that's in do time

But until then I'm guilty

And being humans my crime

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 'em 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
