Superstar

Every 
super 
star       
has 
a 
scar; 
i 
can't 
even 
count 
mine, 
yet 
a 
star 
must 
shine:  
a 
star 
must 
rise,           
a 
must 
be 
wise.
Not 
take 
darkness 
for 
light, 
tho' 
death 
gives 
life, 
Tho' 
you 
can 
not 
share: 
i 
know 
you 
care. 
I 
know 
you 
see, 
i 
know 
you 
can 
feel. 
My 
power 
makes 
me 
weak, 
but 
i 
must 
speak. 
Weak 
but 
not 
tired, 
rejected 
but 
not 
fired.   
I 
am 
here 
for 
good, 
where 
the 
great 
once 
stood. 
Yes 
i 
do 
belong. 
So 
correct 
me 
when 
wrong.
