I Always Wanted A Brother

3:35Have you ever wondered why you look up at the sky for answers? Or why flowers in the wind are effortless and eloquent dancers? Or what forms the rings in the trees, turns a pine from a seed? What's passed down generationally to you? (And to me?) And why our eyes all look like microscopic galaxies? Have you ever wondered why you look up at the sky for answers? Well, you don't have to look too hard We're here for all your question marks If you're tryna figure out just who you are (Don't look far) In the sky, in your front yard In your heart and in the scars If you really wanna know just who you are You're a star, yes Boom, did we just blow your mind? (Uh-huh) Well, I've known the entire time When it comes to the universe, we're all shareholders Get that through your system (solar) See, we were all just little nebulae in a nursery From supernovas, now we've grown into our history We're taking why's right out of mystery closure Now, we're taking in all the star exposure We eat the leaves, and they eat the sun See, that's where all the balls of gas come from Hey, you still look like you're hanging on by a strand But if you just see the mushrooms, then you'll understand So your dust is my dust? Fantastic (huh!) Well, you don't have to look too hard It's all around and not too far If you're tryna figure out just who you are (You're a star) Do you know you're a work of art? Even in the deepest dark If you really wanna know just who you are (I'm a star!) Here's a little fun allegory That gets me excitatory This might sink in in the morning We are our own origin story If I'm explaining this poorly Well, I'll let star do it for me It's all quite revelatory We are our own origin story You don't have to look too hard It's all around and not too far If you're tryna figure out just who you are (You're a star) No matter where you end or start We're all each other's counterparts If you really wanna know just who you are I'm a star (whoo!) Ooh, I'm a star Watch out, world, here I are (hey, hey) You know who's lookin' sharp? (Who?) Me, I'm a star (whoo!) Ooh, you're a star Watch out, world, here you are (hey, hey) You know who's lookin' sharp? (Who?) You! You're a star Hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo
