[Verse 1: Travis Scott]
Close your eyes and let your brain jet (Jet)
Pop off the plane and speaking in that accent
Dreams so serene, when it happens
But no lows, keep the model walking in Manhattan (Ha)
This what you dream when you're about to get up
You jumping, four walls in the place, you get stuck
You feel it's a sin in the wind, just to win
When you win, it's for real, so baby how you feel?
Do you feel this?
[Verse 2: Chris Holloway]
You see your hands, you don't wanna let it go
But the stress is too much to hold on
You don't wanna leave, just another sad song
So many questions that you're better off leaving alone (Alone)
But you don't (Don't), but you don't (Yeah)
[Chorus: Chris Holloway]
Dream big when you wish up on a star, who you are?
If you know, let me hear you say, let me hear you say I
I just dreamed girl, you know who you are
You're the shining star girl, you know who you are
You know who you are
[Verse 3: Travis Scott]
Dream, a figure of imagination
A picture perfect thing that you never ever seen (Seen)
When you looking in the sky and you see that's up (That's up)
Wondering why every dream wanna seem so far (Ha)
It feels so good but life sets so hard
It may seem so fraud, the guards just can't guard
To regard (To regard) the applause from the floors
Keep your head down, don't be scared now (Look)
[Verse 4: Chris Holloway]
Too much to lose, too much to prove
But looking back, you better act
The one shot for you to take this
But your mind stressed out, your heart racing (Racing, racing)
Now it's all or nothing
Took your life, by the end we make it something
You gotta girl, you got what it takes to be a winner, girl (Yeah)
[Chorus: Chris Holloway & Travis Scott]
Dream big when you wish up on a star, who you are?
If you know, let me hear you say, let me hear you say I
I just dreamed girl, you know who you are
You're the shining star girl (The Shining star)
You know who you are
You know who you are
[Refrain: Chris Holloway]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 5: Chris Holloway]
It might be a long way to go
But you gotta lean, I'll steal the show
Who do you think that y'all payment for
Tonight, now let's see what y'all came to do
Your sure sex shortie, all depends on you (All depends on you, oh)
[Chorus: Chris Holloway & Travis Scott]
Dream big when you wish up on a star, who you are?
If you know, let me hear you say, let me hear you say I
I just dreamed girl, you know who you are
You're the shining star girl (The Shining star, yeah)
You know who you are
You know who you are
