Man, man, look at the sky All the stars, man The stars is beautiful tonight Look at 'em Ghetto superstar (superstar), that is what you are (that is what you are) Coming from afar (coming from afar) Reaching for the stars (reaching from the stars) Run-away with me, to another place (get on up) We can rely on each other, uh-huh (yeah) From one corner to another, uh-huh Uh, yeah, yo, yo Some got hopes and dreams, we got ways and means The supreme dream-team, always up with the schemes From hubcaps to selling raps, name your theme My rise-to-the-top floatin' on this cream Who the hell wanna stop me? I hated those who doubted me A million ReFugees with unlimited warranties Black Caesar, datin' top divas Diplomatic legalese, no time for a Visa They just begun, I'ma shoot them one-by-one Got five sides to me, somethin' like a pentagon Strike with the forces of King Solomon Letting bygones be bygones, and so-on and so-on I'ma teach these cats how to live in the ghetto Keepin' it retrospective from the get-go Lay-low, let my mind shine, like a halo Politic with ghetto senators on the d-low Ghetto superstar, that is what you are Coming from afar (uh-huh) Reaching for the stars Run-away with me, to another place We can rely on each other, uh-huh From one corner to another, uh-huh One, two, and you don't stop, yo My eyes is sore, bein' a senator behind closed doors Hittin' truth to the seafloor The rich go north, ignore the tug-o'-war While the kids are poor, open new and better drug stores So I became hardcore, couldn't take it no more I'ma reveal everything, change the law I find myself walkin' the streets Trynna' find what's really goin'-on in the streets Yeah, yeah, yeah, yo Now, every dog got his day, needless to say When the chief away, that's when them cats wanna play I told you: Mess-around, you fools like Cassius Clay Stretch my heater, make you do a pas de bourree Kick your balls like Pelé, pick 'em doing ballet Peak like Dante, broader than Broadway Get applause like a matador Cry, yelling: Ole! Who the hell wanna save me?, From B.K. To Cali Ghetto superstar (come on, uh), that is what you are Coming from afar Reaching for the stars Run-away with me to another place We can rely on each other, uh-huh From one corner to another, uh-huh Yeah, yeah, yeah Just when you thought it was safe in the commonplace Showcase Your Finest is losing fast in the horse race Two-faced getting defaced-out, like Scarface Slow your roll, money, let me put on my screwface Well, I'm paranoid at the things I say Wondering what's the penalty, from day-to-day I'm hangin' out, partying with girls that never die You see, I was picking on the small fries, my campaign tellin' lies I was just spreadin' my love, didn't know my love— Was the one holdin' the gun and the glove But it's all good, as long as it's understood It's all together now, in the hood Ghetto superstar, that is what you are Coming from afar Reaching for the stars Run-away with me, to another place We can rely on each other, uh-huh (Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh) From one corner to another, uh-huh (yeah) (All-stars) Ghetto superstar, that is what you are Coming from afar Reaching for the stars Run-away with me (sing it, baby), to another place (sing it, baby) We can rely on each other, uh-huh From one corner to another, uh-huh (Uh-huh, yeah) (Ooh, ahh)
