Alan Z - Star [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Intro:
I got a question for everyone tryna make it
(Steal for it, lie for it)
What would you do to get famous?
(Kill for it, die for it)

Chorus:
If you’re looking for the lights, camera, action (Take 1, Take 2)
If you’re looking for the lights, camera, action (Take 3, Take 4)
I can turn you to a star, star, star, star
Lemme show you who you really are (Repeat)
If you’re looking for the lights, camera, action (Take 1, Take 2)
If you’re looking for the lights, camera, action (Take 3, Take 4)
I can turn you to a star

Verse 1:
All I really want is a platform of influence
Cuz it feel like I ain’t been movin’…
Forward like I should, like I’m being held back
By invisible forces of hate that the wind blew in
A little bit of a boost to let me know
If you’re really grinding, there’s a silver lining
Even at the point of breaking down, when it’s all weighing down
On your shoulders, man it feels like I’m in…such a rut
Even when I’m in the lab, with a pen and pad, knowing I got hits for days
How many house parties do I gotta rock
And perform in till you listen to the Kid N’ Play?
Cuz I can be a voice for the ugly ducklings, wallflowers, underdogs
I know you can see what I’m going through
And I know you can feel my hunger, Lord

Bridge 1:
If you want devotion I can give you that
I just need a sign to know if this is the right path
I just need the fame now, if you get me on
Lord, I promise I’ll do anything you want
If you turn me to a star, star, star, star
And then I heard a voice that said...

Chorus

Verse 2:
If it wasn’t for the women and the groupies though
That come with the hit records and movie roles
I wouldn’t be doing no music
All I want for my birthday is a big booty ho
No strings attached, but she’ll bring it back
With a friend or two that look Meagan Good
To give it up for my crossover mass appeal
And credibility to get a pass in every hood
Dishing out revenge, and I’ma serve it cold
Don’t really care if the price of it’s worth my soul
I just wanna run up on my enemies
Anyone that disagree, they can be the first to go
Cuz it feels like I just hit the worst of lows
Only thing that can change it is dollar signs
Let me trade you my integrity for celebrity status
On the dotted line for a spot to shine

Bridge 2:
If you want my heart and soul, you can have all that
Even if it takes eternity to pay you back
I just need the fame now, if you get me on
I’m your puppet, I’ll say anything you want
If you turn me to a star, star, star, star
And then I heard a voice that said...

Chorus
