Jessi (제시) – STAR

Everyday I see the stars
Shining bright into my life
Oh yeah, Oh yeah
Fought this battle on my own
Found my strength in love I feel
Everything I do is real for you
For you

애초에 짜인 Plan 따윈 없었지
내 뛰는 심장이
쓴 대본 대로 해
난 몰라 뭐가 있는지
저 언덕 뒤엔
가보면 알아 난
그냥 걸었지
날 첨 발견한 교회 합창단
피아노 치며 노래하던 11살
Ma mama said one day u gonna be a star
내게 필요했던 건 단지 그 한마디
떠나 보금자리 꿈 한 다발 어깨에 메고
건너 태평양을
열다섯에 용기 내어
멀리 온 이곳은
내 부모님의 Home
온도에 비해
좀 얇았던 내 옷
무더운 어느 여름 서울 밤은 차
방에 혼자 누워 난 물어 여긴 어딜까
내 진심 어린 거짓말
잘 지내 엄마 걱정 마 Don’t worry ma

Everyday I see the stars
Shining bright into my life
Oh yeah, Oh yeah
Fought this battle on my own
Found my strength in love I feel
Everything I do is real for you
For you

바뀐 환경
모든 게 다 처음
지금 보다 훨씬
서툴렀던 한국어
낯설어
날 더 낯설어 하는 너
그래도
난 허리 펴고 걸어 나처럼
탄 내 피부 탈색 머리 대조되지
더 빛나지 동그라미 금빛 링 귀걸인
직접 찢은 내 청바지 이건 내 design
못 떨어 가식 없지 버르장머리
You could blame it on the cds my brother bought me
Lauryn hill 윤미래 and the new Ashanti
Road to success but my vision foggy
그때 오빠가 바꿔줬지
흐린 날씨
아빠가 사준 첫차
타고 여기까지 왔지
많은 실수도 있었지
알아 완벽하진 않지
나 다시 되돌아가더라도
I’ll never change this is Jessi everyday

Everyday I see the stars
Shining bright into my life
Oh yeah, Oh yeah
Fought this battle on my own
Found my strength in love I feel
Everything I do is real for you
For you

Love if you love
Ima Love if you don’t
Ima love if you won’t
Ima love Ima love when I see you

Love if you love
Ima Love if you don’t
Ima love if you won’t
Ima love ima love when I see you

Everyday I see the stars
Shining bright into my life
Oh yeah, Oh yeah
Fought this battle on my own
Found my strength in love I feel
Everything I do is real for you
For you

I never ad a plan to plant the seed
I just followed the rhythm of my heart
And went with the beat
I don’t even know what’s coming for me next,
Right behind the hill
But i just went and climbed that bitch
Like I’m Jack and Jill
I first found my love for this in the church choir
Was only 11 playin’ the piano, didn’t think I’d get far
Ma mama said one day u gonna be a star
And that’s all I needed to hear
I left my hometown with a dollar and a dream
I gathered my courage and crossed the pacific
At the age of 15
Far from home
Landed in the motherland thinkin’ it’d be better
Just to find out
I’m living in a cold world with a thin sweater
Summers hot as hell but still it got me freezing
Alone in my room asking where I am but nobody knows
Don’t worry ma, told you I was cool
Those white lies were for you

Everyday I see the stars
Shining bright into my life
Oh yeah, Oh yeah
Fought this battle on my own
Found my strength in love I feel
Everything I do is real for you
For you

Environment Changed
Everyday a new experience
You think my Korean’s bad now?
You should’ve heard me back then, that shit was serious
I thought they were strange
But they thought I was stranger every time I passed by
But still
I just did me and walked around with my head up high
You can see the contrast; my tan skin, my hair light
And plus my gold hoop rings make me shine bright
Torn jeans yeah that’s my design down to every stitch
I refuse to be fake I’d rather be that bitch
You could blame it on the cds my brother bought me
Lauryn hill, Yoon Mirae and the new Ashanti
Road to success but my vision foggy
Thought the rain would never stop
But my brothers changed the forecast
My daddy bought me my first car
And my drive is what got me far
Yeah I know I ain’t perfect
Made a lot of mistakes thus far
If I had to do this all over again, there’d be no other way
I’ll never change this is Jessi everyday

Everyday I see the stars
Shining bright into my life
Oh yeah, Oh yeah
Fought this battle on my own
Found my strength in love I feel
Everything I do is real for you
For you

Love if you love
Ima Love if you don’t
Ima love if you won’t
Ima love Ima love when I see you

Love if you love
Ima Love if you don’t
Ima love if you won’t
Ima love ima love when I see you
