Shooting Star by KNoWTe Lyrics
[Intro]
Check, check. 1-2, 1-2
Yeah
That sound's right
[Verse 1: KNoWTe]
People seem to like when I rap about my problems
The only problem is I like to pretend that I don't got 'em
Doesn't solve 'em
Only builds 'em up
Until I'm ready to snap and feel like giving up
I'm not even a friend to myself
So I like to keep my distance
Just for instance, when I see a mirror I don't see my image
They say I'm acting different
My love is inconsistent
The world is feeling twisted
Like when the beat is clipping
Distortion of my vision
Please don't say I'm gifted
Cause then I'll take that ribbon
Use it just to end it
Then I think of my brother, like will he go through what I did?
All we have is each other, so then I think I want to live
But it's hard now, they're a flight away
The other is not okay
So then I gotta stay strong for my family's sake
Miss another birthday cake
But I got paid, so great
As long as I get that "A,"
Then it makes up for what I missed
But that's just what I wish
So then I sit and reminisce about
The time's when home was where we lived
Now we're all a part
You say home is where we are
So tell me why I fall apart every time I see a shooting star
[Chorus 1: Maxlorie]
Everything that I did
And everything that I do
Everything that I worked for is in the past
Everything that I did
And everything that I do
Everything that I worked for is in the past
[Verse 2: KNoWTe]
I know I got my father's anger and my mother's stress
Sometimes I never feel attached and live inside my head
Sometimes I wonder was it worth it all the tears I shed
You know my biggest regret is living with regret
I don't want to waste a single second on what I don't believe in
Sorry if what I don't believe in is the thing you're teaching
I must have missed your chapter or forgot to read it
I didn't hear your question, may you please repeat it?
(Please repeat it.)
What do I want from my life?
What do I want to achieve?
Kind of funny, thought I had it figured out, 16
6 years later instead of chasing a dream I'm chasing paper
Cable, stable, label, not a major label
But you labeled me and my family half-breeds
(Dam)
[Chorus 2: Maxlorie]
Everything that I did
And everything that I do
Everything that I worked for is in the past
Everything that I did
And everything that I do
Everything that I worked for is in the past
[Outro: Maxlorie]
(Shooting star, yeah)

Yeah
