All Star
Dwight Howard Lyrics

Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
Someone once warned me that life is going to be tough

I hate the sharpest tool in the shed
I am not a clever person

She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
The person described earlier was making a silly hand gesture

In the shape of an L on her forehead
The hand gesture was in the shape of an 'L' on the forehead, which is a symbol of loser

Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Time keeps moving forward relentlessly

Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
I followed society's expectations without questioning them and started working hard right away

Didn't make sense not to live for fun
It is irrational to not enjoy life

Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
You can gain intelligence but still be foolish

So much to do so much to see
The world holds endless possibilities

So what's wrong with taking the back streets
Why not try a different path to reach your destination?

You'll never know if you don't go, go
You will learn nothing if you do not try new things

You'll never shine if you don't glow, glow
You will not stand out if you do not put in the effort

Hey now you're an all star get your game on, go play
Now that you have succeeded, it is time to continue to push yourself

Hey now you're a rock star get the show on get paid
Now that you have reached stardom, you must put on a performance and get rewarded

And all that glitters is gold
Not everything that looks good on the surface is truly valuable

Only shooting stars break the mold
Only the exceptional can truly break free from the norm

It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
This place is impressive, but it may get even more difficult

You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older
You may be prepared now, but you need to be ready for future challenges

But the meteor men beg to differ
Some experts disagree with the popular opinion

Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
Evidence exists that contradicts popularly held beliefs

The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The situation may become dangerous soon

The waters getting warm so you might as well swim
The environment is changing, so it is better to adapt and move forward

My world's on fire how about yours
I am struggling, how are you doing?

That's the way I like it and I'll never get bored
I prefer to live my life with intensity and challenge

Come on, kids [Incomprehensible]
Encouragement to the younger generation

Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas
Someone once asked me for money for fuel

I need to get myself away from this place
I need to escape from my current situation

I said yep what a concept
I agreed with the idea that change is necessary

I could use a little fuel myself
I could use some help too

And we could all use a little change
Everyone needs some positive change in their lives

You're an all star but you gotta believe
You may be successful, but you must continue to believe and work hard
