Superstar

Mom, dad,

I'm getting over my anger
'cause I understand now, I didn't understand nothin' at all
and I probably still don't
except maybe for this....
I do love you!

You are my superstar
You inspire me, by being who you are
You spoke so many words so true
I realize now
I owe so much to you

Tried to plan my escape in so many ways
Been counting all the hours in my endless kiddie days
Waiting for the chance to prove to you
I can do it better then you did or ever will do
But then the day came
I saw I don't know shit
Things comin' my way
I have a hard time dealin' with
But in my low low downs
I learned what I know now
How did you do?
How did you pull through?
I'm not even half way of where you got to

You are my superstar
You inspire me, by being who you are
You spoke so many words so true
I realize now
I owe so much to you

Hey you there living somewhere far away
I blamed you 'cause you wouldn't give me any time of day
You left me turned your back on your family
The love I had for you became you getting no respect from me
But then the day came, I saw the man in you,
ain't it senseless to keep blame,
I guess you did what you thought you had to do
In my low low downs
I learned what I know now
How did you do?
How did you pull through?
I'm not even half way of where you got to

You are my superstar
You inspire me, by being who you are
You spoke so many words so true
I realize now
I owe so much to you

You are my superstar
You inspire me, by being who you are
You spoke so many words so true
I realize now
I owe so much to you

for all the violence and cries...
I apologize!
Pretending I could never read the pain inside your eyes,
But I did and I know I caused drama.
But I was just a stupid kid longing for both her mama and her papa.
In this game where I thought I could make the rules,
I learned that ego-tripping is a path chosen by fools!
You had something, next to that...
I ain't got nothing going on
Except excuses to my unborn kid [that] I [just] couldn't carry on.

You are my superstar
You inspire me, by being who you are
You spoke so many words so true
I realize now
I owe so much to you

You are my superstar
You inspire me, by being who you are
You spoke so many words so true
I realize now
I owe so much to you
