In August's song "Make you a Star," the singer is addressing a hypothetical lover and asking them what they would do for him to impress him. He describes the atmosphere, and how the lovers feel about each other, leading up to the chorus, where he tells her that he will make her a star. August is promising to bring out the superstar in her, with lights, camera, and action. He will even direct her if need be. He promises to provide her with satisfaction. The second verse is where he takes charge and tells her he will teach her how to do things his way. He starts by asking if she's down to use her imagination, and get a little freaky. He asks if she's okay with adding a few extra people to their fun. In the last verse, he addresses the listener, as passionate to the idea, and tells her he can see that she wants him, and that he's up for anything.
