[Intro]
Every n******g is a star
[Verse 1]
I'm not sure anymore
Just how it happened before
The places that I knew
Were sunny and blue
I can feel it deep inside
This black n******g's pride
I have no fear when I say
And I say it every day:
[Refrain]
Every n******g is a star
Every n******g is a star
Who will deny that you and I and every n******g is a star?
[Verse 2]
I have walked the streets alone
Twenty years I've been on my own
To be hated and despised (Poor n******g)
No one to sympathize (Poor n******g)
But there's one great thing I know
You can say, "I told you so"
They've got a right place in the sun
Where there's love for everyone, and
[Refrain]
[Post-Refrain]
(Bright shining star) Every n******g's a star
(Bright shining star) Every n******g's a star
(Bright shining star) Every n******g's a star
Every n******g's a star (Yeah, yeah, yeah!)
[Bridge]
They've got a right place in the sun
Where there's love for everyone, and
[Refrain]
[Outro] x3
(Bright shining star) Every n******g's a star
(Bright shining star) Yes, every n******g is a star
