A Star Lyrics by RatFace

The Rat’s Tale

2017

Verse 1 (RatFace):

Am i the only one feeling pressure from peers?
They are dragging me down and making me fear
Failing myself and everybody else round here
But they never listen to the struggle that we're

Expressing all the time 'bout being on top
See we gotta be good at things we are not
Even if i hate it, expected to shop
For revisions books on subjects they want

Me to study but i can't find
The time to revise for such pointless things in my life

Instead i make music and spread it, get it?
I've actually made something out of it yet it

Never seems to get ingrained in your brain
That this talent and skill could help win The Games

Instead of just living an average lifestyle
Could be out there producing and right i'll

Start with the fact, you'd be stuck in your house
While i'm out doing shows with my name in your mouth

And i'm talking in general, not just music
So much talent but we chose not to use it

Thinking that we gotta get good grades
Thinking that we gotta open gate

But the gate's already open
You've already found it
Just gotta follow it
Not work around it

Bridge (RatFace):

Don't let the pressure get to ya
Just do what you want
Try your best then you can't disappoint
Yourself cause you've given it all that you've got
Just give it what you got and do what you can
Things don't always stick to the plan but you need to understand

Hook (Hyde):

Everybody came from a star
So why you stressing 'bout a grade, hey?
Some things do not matter you can save you, save your
Time and effort for something that's greater, yeah

Work hard
Stay up
Dream big
Way up

Don't be stressing 'bout a grade
Don't be stressing 'bout a grade

Work hard
Stay up
Dream big
Way up

Don't be stressing 'bout a grade
Can't be stressing 'bout a grade

Verse 2:

Look i ain't saying give up in your lessons
Just don't be stressing 'bout some of this irrelevance
If you got a vision of a mathematician
There is no point worrying 'bout some textile stiching

People gonna expect an A* regardless
If it drives you into the late darkness
You gotta say forget it then become heartless
Nobody can force you to run mental fartlek

Like if you don't wanna learn no astronomy
Focus on something else like Biology
No point wasting time on it honestly
Do what you love and maybe, yes possibly

You could have been a prodigy and never even knew it
But leaving it to late you will hate that you blew it
Could drop an 8 into a 6, follow through, pursue it
That's my advice it's up to you and go and do it

It's your decision only you can make
Just make sure you know what's at stake

You could lose everything if you don't study hard
At the same time you could follow dreams, travel far

How about a mix of two? study for what you need
Drop everything else that doesn't seem

Like it can benefit the way you wanna live
Cause if it don't fit, no point in learning it RAHH

Bridge (RatFace):

Don't let the pressure get to ya
Just do what you want
Try your best then you can't disappoint
Yourself cause you've given it all that you've got
Just give it what you got and do what you can
Things don't always stick to the plan but you need to understand

Hook (Hyde):

Everybody came from a star
So why you stressing 'bout a grade, hey?
Some things do not matter you can save you, save your
Time and effort for something that's greater, yeah

Work hard
Stay up
Dream big
Way up

Don't be stressing 'bout a grade
Don't be stressing 'bout a grade

Work hard
Stay up
Dream big
Way up

Don't be stressing 'bout a grade
Can't be stressing 'bout a grade
