I'm A Star

Have you ever wondered why you look up at the sky for answers?
Or why flowers in the wind are effortless and eloquent dancers?
Or what forms the rings in the trees, turns a pine from a seed?

What's passed down generationally to you? (And to me?)
And why our eyes all look like microscopic galaxies?
Have you ever wondered why you look up at the sky for answers?

Well, you don't have to look too hard
We're here for all your question marks
If you're tryna figure out just who you are
(Don't look far)

In the sky, in your front yard
In your heart and in the scars
If you really wanna know just who you are
You're a star, yes

Boom, did we just blow your mind? (Uh-huh)
Well, I've known the entire time
When it comes to the universe, we're all shareholders
Get that through your system (solar)

See, we were all just little nebulae in a nursery
From supernovas, now we've grown into our history
We're taking why's right out of mystery closure
Now, we're taking in all the star exposure

We eat the leaves, and they eat the sun
See, that's where all the balls of gas come from
Hey, you still look like you're hanging on by a strand
But if you just see the mushrooms, then you'll understand
So your dust is my dust? Fantastic (huh!)

Well, you don't have to look too hard
It's all around and not too far
If you're tryna figure out just who you are
(You're a star)

Do you know you're a work of art?
Even in the deepest dark
If you really wanna know just who you are
(I'm a star!)

Here's a little fun allegory
That gets me excitatory
This might sink in in the morning
We are our own origin story

If I'm explaining this poorly
Well, I'll let star do it for me
It's all quite revelatory
We are our own origin story

You don't have to look too hard
It's all around and not too far
If you're tryna figure out just who you are
(You're a star)

No matter where you end or start
We're all each other's counterparts
If you really wanna know just who you are
I'm a star (whoo!)

Ooh, I'm a star
Watch out, world, here I are (hey, hey)
You know who's lookin' sharp? (Who?)
Me, I'm a star (whoo!)

Ooh, you're a star
Watch out, world, here you are (hey, hey)
You know who's lookin' sharp? (Who?)
You! You're a star
Hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo
