ettrick shepherd - stars lyrics

[hook]
on my sleeve is where i wore my heart
journeyed through the dark, gave it all for this art
going hard and tryna get far
so i hope when i depart i’m written in the stars

[verse 1]
when i think about my death i only think about one thing
will people remember me when those church bells ring?
and my legacy especially
will they forget the name hogg like they always do the second g
makes me wonder too – i wonder who will be there to die next me
i wonder – how will they remember me?
as a man who stood on stage and wrecked mcs
the man who came with lyrical complexity
the dope mc, the poetry
when you listen to this you know it’s me
and hopefully they noticed me
the way he knew what to write and approach the beat
the way he never gave up on his hopes and dreams
the way he went to waste but never went away like the
waves and never caved, forever stayed
just wanted centre stage
found himself a vehicle and engine for his rage
but one day there’ll come a time for the chapter to change
and as they turn the page i’m nothing but a star in the motherf-cking sky

[hook]
on my sleeve is where i wore my heart
journeyed through the dark, gave it all for this art
going hard and tryna get far
so i hope when i depart i’m written in the stars

[verse 2]
sometimes it can be hard to believe that this
started with me, wearing my heart on my sleeve
confessed i was nothing but a mess
cos i couldn’t digest all the facts that i addressed
my purpose on this earth is to
disperse every verse
it’s a blessing and a curse
f-ck the haters, i’ma dive in to this craft head first
i manifested this sh-t to become true
punch through, punch on and never undo
never stop, never break, always give, never take
always learn from mistakes just like i always say
i’m free of deceit with everything that i’ve said
though i accept – at times i haven’t been morally correct
i hope those i meet remember me when i’m dead
as the rapper who rapped and never took a breath

[hook]
on my sleeve is where i wore my heart
journeyed through the dark, gave it all for this art
going hard and tryna get far
so i hope when i depart i’m written in the stars

[verse 3]
in the booth, speak nothing but the truth
depression diffused, my mind and i have a truce
i know one day, we’re all gonna be old
so i’m not gonna live my life runnin’ after gold
this is my f-cking world, it’s time i took control
but there are me things i can’t seem to resolve
the least i can do is put my 2 cents in the bowl
so others don’t feel like they’re living in the cold
so they know that i’m here tryna set an example
the stampede of hate came but i wasn’t trampled
i lived through the doubt and you can do the same
a candle to a flame to a star in the motherf-cking sky

[hook]
on my sleeve is where i wore my heart
journeyed through the dark, gave it all for this art
going hard and tryna get far
so i hope when i depart i’m written in the stars
