歌词
Momma told me I'ma be a star one day
妈妈告诉我，我总有一天会成为小明星
Woke up in the morning and kissed my face
早晨醒来，她亲亲我的脸颊，说：
"Time to go,you're too special
「是时候出发了，你这个小家伙」
To lay around my house and take up space
「你太特别，不要在屋子里无所事事」
You're gonna do something for the human race
「你要为了人类作出点贡献」
You didn't get my eyes but you got my face
「虽然你没继承我的眼睛，但你的脸很像我」
Now go find some dream to chase"
「好了，现在去追逐梦想吧！」
Momma told me I'ma be a star one day
妈妈告诉我，我总有一天会成为小明星
Went to all the games that I didn't play
我会接触形形色色的事物
Said,"Stay strong,it won't take long
妈妈说，「坚强点，一切都很快就会过去」
You started off slow but you'll get there quick
「你可能出发得不早，但你一定会成功地到达」
Zip that coat so you don't get sick
「记得拉上拉链，不要感冒了」
Believe in yourself,boy,that's the trick
「记住，我的孩子，成功诀窍在于相信你自己」
You're building this thing up brick by brick"
「你正在一块砖一块砖地垒起你的大厦」
She would pick me up from practice
妈妈会在我下了课外班之后把我接回家
And she'd take me home from school
还会把我从家送到学校
She made me believe in magic
她让我相信魔法的存在
She knew Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy,too
她给我讲圣诞老人和牙仙子的故事……
Momma told me I'ma be a star one day
妈妈告诉我，我总有一天会成为小明星
Cried a little bit when I went away
但在我离开的时候，她偷偷哭了
I grew up,and all that stuff
成长或许意味着分别吧
She told me I need to pick up my phone
她告诉我要记得接电话
If it doesn't work out,"you can come back home"
要是有什么问题，「那就回家吧」
Knew I couldn't go 'cause I'm too grown
但我知道我已经是大人了，我不能再回去了
Gotta figure this out alone
我需要独自面对生活的问题了
But she helped me move to my apartment
话虽如此，妈妈还是来帮我搬家了
In the the center of downtown LA
那是在洛杉矶的市中心
Hugged me and said,"You're just getting started
她给了我一个大大的拥抱，说：
I know that my star will find a way"
「你的旅途才刚刚开始，但我知道我的小明星一定会找到他的星轨」
