"I'm A Star" is a song, the fourth overall, in Disney's animated feature film Wish, sung by the movie's cast, including Valentino (Alan Tudyk), Asha (Ariana DeBose) and a group of forest animals and plants.

Asha is surprised when the star that she wished upon comes down and grants her the power that she seeks. It also grants the power of speech to her baby goat Valentino and the animals and plants of the forest. They sing about how they are all made of the same material as the star.

As part of "Wish Wednesdays", the song was fully released on November 8, 2023.[1]

Lyrics[]

Squirrel:
Have you ever wondered why you look up at the sky for answers?
Or why flowers in the wind are effortless and eloquent dancers?
What forms the rings in the trees turns a pine from a seed?

Female Tree:
What's passed down generationally, to you?

Sapling:
(And to me?)

Owl:
And why our eyes all look like microscopic galaxies?
Have you ever wondered why you look up at the sky for answers?

Ensemble:
Well, you don't have to look too hard
We're here for all your question marks
If you're tryna figure out just who you are

Chipmunk:
(Don't look far!)

Ensemble:
In the sky, and your front yard
In your heart and in the scars
If you really wanna know just who you are

Bear:
You're a star (Yes)

Male Rabbit:
Boom, did we just blow your mind?

Bunny:
(Uh-huh)

Valentino:
Well, I've known the entire time!

Female Rabbit:
When it comes to the universe we're all shareholders

Rabbit Ensemble:
Get that trough your system

Male Rabbit:
(Solar)

Turtle:
See we're all just little nebulae in a nursery
From supernovas now we've grown into our history
We're taking why's right out of mystery, closure
Now we're taking in

Ensemble:
All the star exposure!

Mice:
We eat the leaves and they eat the sun

Valentino:
See that's where all the balls of gas come from

Mushrooms:
Hey, you still look like you're hanging on by a strand
But If you just see the mushrooms then you'll understand

Valentino:
So your dust, is my dust?
Fantastic (Woo!)

Ensemble:
Well, you don't have to look too hard
It's all around and not too far
If you're tryna figure out just who you are

You're a star!

Ensemble:
Do you know you're a work of art?
Even in the deepest dark
If you really wanna know just who you are

Valentino:
I'm a star!

Male Tree:
Here's a little fun allegory

Female Tree:
That gets me excitatory

Raccoons:
This might sink in in the morning
We are our own origin story!

Rooster:
If I'm explaining this poorly
Well I'll let star do it for me

Mother Hen:
It's all quite revelatory

Baby Chicks:
We are our own origin story!

Ensemble:
You don't have to look too hard
It's all around and not too far
If you tryna figure out just who you are

Asha:
You're a star!

Ensemble:
No matter where you end or start
We're all each other's counterparts
If you really wanna know just who you are

I'm a star! (Wooh)
