Rock Star

I Wanna Be A Rock Star-------

Met a young kid once

who wanted to be a big time musician.

Wanted to make wonderful sounds.

Wanted all the money that goes along with it.

Wanted all the fame.

I told him, “Lotta people dream of the good life.

Lotta people dream of money and fortune and fame.

Often they are the ones who also like to say,

'If only things were different

I'd be happy

If only I had the time to do what I want

If only I had a little more talent

If only I looked a bit different

If only life smiled my way.'”

Told him, “You are who you are.

Nothing is going to change that.

And everything can't be rosy at every turn

because living is a challenge and that's a fact.

But you've got all that you need

to get what you want out of life.

You gotta believe in yourself

enough to try a few things.

You'll be surprised to find

how much of life turns your way.

The secret to success

has a lot to do with faith in yourself.

When you look in the mirror

you need to see a star shining bright

before you can be a star to everyone else.

You gotta find what is good in yourself

before everyone else will see the good in you.”
