Avery Wilson
For The Stars
[Intro: Dee-1]
To all my dreamchasers
From Dee-1
[Pre-Hook: Avery Wilson]
I know what it is
Determined to win
I'm shining, I'm finna change the world with my pen
I'm chosen I'm chosen I'm chosen I tell ya'
I'm golden I'm golden I'm golden I tell ya'
[Hook]
I'm shooting, I'm shooting for the stars
I'm shooting, I'm shooting you haters
I'm shooting for the stars
[Verse 1: Dee-1]
Butterfly, oh, oh, that's old
Let me see that tootsie roll
We just tryna' have a good time, partying, live to be old
Man, that would be cold, that would be cool, that would be wild
I'm just tryna' make my mama smile and my grandmama proud
One thing I know about my hood, the people ain't bad, we just ain't got it
You see a gangsta, but me, I see a king that's just misguided
You see a stripper, I see a queen who just don't know her worth
That's why we work, putting in work, waving at haters, they watching me surf
Ayyy
[Pre-Hook: Avery Wilson]
I know what it is
Determined to win
I'm shining, I'm finna change the world with my pen
I'm chosen I'm chosen I'm chosen I tell ya'
I'm golden I'm golden I'm golden I tell ya'
[Hook]
I'm shooting, I'm shooting for the stars
I'm shooting, I'm shooting you haters
I'm shooting for the stars
[Verse 2: Dee-1]
My big homie got me, I'm backed by the best
The humble don't stumble, He orders my steps
Tomorrow ain't promised, so I know I'm blessed
Yes, yes, yes, yes
All of my struggles are tests (I passed them)
My enemies know (Go ask them)
They want me to fail (I'm laughing)
Said I wouldn't make it (Look what happened)
My circle ain't big (Nope)
So, the love ain't fake (Nope)
Sometimes, to elevate, you got to isolate
So, all I want is for my people to see
We could be anything we want to be
If you need inspiration look at me
If you need motivation look at Dee
[Pre-Hook: Avery Wilson]
I know what it is
Determined to win
I'm shining, I'm finna change the world with my pen
I'm chosen I'm chosen I'm chosen I tell ya'
I'm golden I'm golden I'm golden I tell ya'
[Hook]
I'm shooting, I'm shooting for the stars
I'm shooting, I'm shooting you haters
I'm shooting for the stars
