Talib Kweli

Talib Kweli - Oh My Stars lyrics

(feat. Musiq Soulchild)

[Kids Rapping]

I'm freestyling, for me, myself and I

I write them on the paper til it gets sky high

I say goodbye, to all the bad things I've done

I start a new beginning, at this is how it begun

From, KRS-One to Talib Kweli

Now I'm the best superstar on BET

And MTV, better yet I'm known universally

I am the key, to being the best MC

The prophecy, the one and only

A timeless masterpiece, I ain't the least

I'm the best, cause God said so

I'm just trying to express my lyrical flow

[Talib Kweli with Musiq Soulchild harmonising throughout]

Yo, yo

It feel good, it feel so damn good, it feel

It feel good, it feel so damn, uh

It feel good, it feel so damn good, it feel

It feel good, yo, yo, yo

It feel good, it feel so damn good, it feel

Baby tell me how it feel when I always keep it real

It feel good, it feel so damn good, it feel

Yo, now how it feel? Yo

[Verse 1 - Talib Kweli]

It feel good, it feel so damn good, it feel

Khalil brought the fly shit, I brought the hood appeal

Notes from the piano is falling out the sky

Like angels losing their wings so they see how it feel to cry

Babies have babies for the welfare coupons

Dudes on the radio rapping, them cats is lukewarm

I get up on it, spit up on it like a new born

The family structure ruptured, there's living proof like a group home

B-Boy being a man, throw a suit on

Stepping out hotter than ??? when the soup's on

My son like "Daddy, I be missing you when you gone"

I said I gotta go so I can stack chips like Lou Corn

I ask my daughter how I look, she fixed my hat so I can wear it cool

Cause she's like "That's what they wear in school"

Then she asked me "Daddy, you know any superstars?"

I looked at her and said "Stop being silly, that's what you two are"

I say it now and I've said it before

And you can trust me on this cause I've been through it y'all

Follow your heart and you can do it dog

Baby you're a star...

[Musiq Soulchild]

All of the days...

All of the days, of my life I spent on trying to find

Yet another way to show you how, how special you are

There ain't no body, that can take that away from you

No matter what...

Even though...

[Verse 2 - Talib Kweli with Musiq Soulchild harmonising throughout]

Yeah, yo, yo, yo

And even though mummy and daddy might fight all through the night

Argue and fuss, you a part of us that we've got to get right

I don't love you to death, cause I love you to life

And you a teenager, you might not want my advice

You might be full of spite, think you're grown, still a tyke

And say things that cut like a patient under the knife

I say this, cause I was once a teenager too

And respect for my peers is really all that I related to

But I made it through, you gonna make it too

So much I wanna say to you...

[Talib Kweli - Repeat until fade]

Baby you a star, that's what you are to me

You know I can tell? Cause you a part of me
