Lyrics

[Chorus] If you say what you mean, and mean what you say, ah-ah If the person you are and who you portray, ah-ah-ah If you're living your life without looking in, ah-ah That's where it all begins (That's where it all begins) [Verse 1] Keeping up with the Joneses ain't gon' ever get you anywhere Same job, same car, is that who you really are? Deep inside you know in your heart everybody is a star We all want a love bizarre, ah As we travel along this road of ours [Pre-Chorus] You already know (Already know, yeah) The way you must go (You can go your own way) The moment is now Open your eyes (Hey, yeah) [Chorus] If you say what you mean, and mean what you say, ah-ah If the person you are and who you portray, ah-ah If you're living your life without looking in, ah That's where it all begins (That's where it all begins, yeah) [Verse 2] So it's up to you, what you gonna do now that you have no excuse? This is the day that was made for you, yeah, yeah What if you really walked in light of the love you really are And you knew that you were a superstar? Would all of that stuff be more than enough To be anything you want? [Pre-Chorus] You already know, already know, yeah The way you must go, you can go your own way The moment is now (The moment's right now, yeah, yeah) You have arrived (Right here, hey, yeah, oh) [Chorus] If you say what you mean, and mean what you say, ah-ah-ah (Gotta mean it, oh, oh, oh) If the person you are and who you portray, ah-ah (Do you know who you are?) If you're living your life without looking in (Oh, oh, oh, oh) That's where it all begins (That's where it all begins) If you say what you mean, and mean what you say, ah-ah-ah (What you mean, yeah) If the person you are and who you portray, ah-ah (Do you know who you are?) If the love that you seek doesn't start from within (Within, within) That's where it all begins (That's where it all begins, that's where it all begins) [Pre-Chorus] You already know (Already know) The way you must go (The way you must go) The moment is now (Hey, yeah, hey) You have arrived (Right here, yeah, yeah, oh, ooh, hey) [Chorus] If you say what you mean, and mean what you say, ah-ah-ah (Do you mean what you say?) If the person you are and who you portray, ah-ah (Do you know who you are?) If you're living your life without looking in That's where it all begins (That's where it all begins, yeah) If you say what you mean, and mean what you say, ah-ah-ah (Do you mean, yeah, yeah, yeah) If the person you are and who you portray, ah-ah (Do you know who you are? Hey) If the love that you see don't start from within (From within, yeah, yeah, oh) That's where it all begins (That's where it all begins, that's where it all begins) [Outro] Do you know who you are? (You already know in your heart everybody is a star)
