Man man, look up at the sky

All the stars man, the stars is beautiful tonight

Look at em!

Chorus: Mya

Ghetto superstar, that is what you are

Comin from afar, reachin 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

[Pras]

Uh, yeah, yo, yo

Some got, hopes and dreams, we got, ways and means

The surpreme dream team, always up with the schemes

From hubcaps to sellin raps, name your theme

My rise to the top, floatin on this cream

Who the hell wanna stop me, I hated those who doubt me

A million ReFugees with unlimited warranties

Black Ceasar, dating top skeezers

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

Lettin bygones be bygones, and so on, and so on

I'ma teach this cat, how to live in the ghetto

Keepin it retro-spective from the get go

Lay low, let my mind shine like a halo

P-P-Politic with ghetto senators on the deelow

Chorus

[Ol' Dirty Bastard]

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 of 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

Tryin to find what's really goin on in the streets

[Pras]

Yea, yo, yo, yo

Now every dog got his day, needless to say

When the chief away that's when them cats want to 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 Pele, pick em doin ballet

Peak like Dante, broader than Broadway

Get applause like a matador, cry yellin !Ole!

Who the hell wanna save me, from B.K., to Cali

Come on

Chorus

[Pras]

Yeah... yo, yeah

Just when you thought it was safe in a common place

Showcase your finest is losin fast in the horse race

Two faced, gettin defaced, out like Scarface

Throw your roll money, let me put on my screwface

[Ol' Dirty Bastard]

Well I'm paranoid at the things I said

Wonderin what's the penalty from day to day, I'm hangin out

partyin with girls that never die, you see I was

pickin on the small fries, my campaign tellin lies

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 understand

It's all together now, in the hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

Chorus

[Pras]

Uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh

Yeah

All Stars, yeah yeah yeah

Chorus

[ODB]

Sing it baby, sing it babyeeeeeeeeee

To another, aheoehahahahhhhhhhhh

Yeahhhh, heeeee, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
