I'm a Star (Live)

Someone give me a chance
And just watch me break through,
I deserve to be seen,
This dream feels way overdue.

I was born to perform
More than anyone knows.
I have passion and guts,
I want this and it shows.

I have fought, I have cried.
I've been broke, I've been bruised.
Yet at the end of the day
This life is what I still choose.

I am song, I am dance,
All I need is a break.
This is all that I am,
Someone give me the chance.

I am more than the average no one
One chance--
Just to prove to you I am someone.

Let me sing for you now
More than just 16 bars.
If you give me a chance
You'll discover a star.

I will risk everything
If that's what it takes.
I can be what you want,
I know all that's at stake.

All the strength and the will,
All the vigor and fight,
When I stand on that stage
Watch my spirit take flight.

There's a dream I anticipated
Just you wait--
'Cause you know I'll be celebrated.

I just need you to see
All the hope and the drive.
This is all that I know,
It's what keeps me alive.

I know everything I need to know,
I know every song.
Just give me a stage and strike the lights,
I will prove I belong.

I have dreamt wide awake,
I have dreamt with my heart.
All I need is a break,
So that the real dream can start.

'Cause I've worked way to hard
To be brushed off just yet.
Time to prove to the world
I'm someone not to forget.

I can't let all my dreams go nowhere.
I won't stop--
Till the day that I finally get there.

To see my name bright in lights
Up there on the marquee.
All I need from you now
Is to wake up and see
I'm a star,
A star.
