Ryan Caraveo Superstar Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am not a superstar
I write songs and pretend you the one with my stupid flaws
I am not a hero
Yeah, I'm laying right beside you, but I ain't really here, though
I am not a role model
Nah, I can not throw up any of the dope I swallowed
I am not an icon
I can buy a lot, but I cannot say bye to my bygones
I won't rule the kingdom
I make a living writin' melodies, and I can barely sing 'em
I'm more of a moron
I book shows, but I throw up every time before I go on

[Chorus]
I am no superstar
I am no superstar
I am not next, I am just a mess
Who paid for some cameras and threw me on a set
I am no superstar

[Verse 2]
I am not a symbol
Most days I can't assemble myself, plain and simple I am not a figure
Man, I couldn't count the times I had my finger on the trigger
I am not your darling
Getting played left and right taught me how to play your heartstrings
I am not an idol
I chase thrills like a high as a means of survival
I say I'm not selfish
But every line in this song starts with "I," I can't help it
I wanna be enormous
Or maybe I just need someone to tell me I'm important
[Chorus]
I am no superstar
I am no superstar
I am not next, I am just a mess
Who paid for some cameras and threw me on a set
I am no superstar

[Outro]
I am no superstar
I am no superstar
I am no superstar
I am no superstar
