Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yep, it's B5
Yep, let's go
Yeah, come on

When you wish upon a star (when you wish upon a star)
Your dreams will take you very far, yeah, yeah yeah yeah
When you wish upon a dream (when you wish upon a dream)
Life ain't always what it seems, oh yeah

Yeah, come on
Once you see your light so clear
Yeah, come on
In the sky so very dear, oh

Bring it back
You're a shining star no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be
Truly be

Yeah, it's B5
Get it, get it

Shining star come into view
Shine its watchful light on you, yeah
Gives you strength to carry on
And make my body big and strong

On an adventure to the sun
'Cause I'm awake, and just begun
Thought I had to stir the mood
That's it now, I got my own, yeah

So if you find yourself in need
Why don't you listen to these words of heat?
Be a child, you're free of sin
Be some place, oh, yes I can

You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be, truly be

Shining bright to see what you can truly be, truly be

You're a shining star (uh, yeah) no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be, truly be
You're a shining star (uh, yeah) no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be, truly be
You're a shining star (uh, yeah) no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be, truly be

Shining star for you to see, what your life can truly be




Shining star for you to see, what your life can truly be
Shining star for you to see, what your life can truly be

Overall Meaning

DJ R.V.B's song "Shining Star" is about the power of hope, dreams and aspirations. The lyrics reflect the idea that anyone, no matter who they are, can be a "shining star" and achieve greatness. The opening lines "When you wish upon a star, your dreams will take you very far" are a reference to the famous Disney song "When You Wish Upon a Star" from Pinocchio. This phrase, along with "When you wish upon a dream, life ain't always what it seems" illustrate that the path to achieving one's dreams can be difficult, but if you hold onto hope, you can go far.


The next verse expands on this idea, stating that when you see your light shine clear in the sky, you are a shining star, no matter who you are. This is a metaphor for finding your purpose and passion in life, and using it to shine and standout. The chorus repeats the phrase "you're a shining star no matter who you are" to reinforce the idea that anyone has the potential to achieve greatness.


The second half of the song encourages the listener to be free of sin, and to find their place in the world. It affirms that we all have a purpose, and that we must find it in order to truly shine. The song ends with the repetition of the phrase "Shining star for you to see what your life can truly be" as a powerful affirmation that we all have the potential to be great.
