Champion |
| Did you realize |
| That you were a champion in their eyes? |
| Yes, I did |
| So I packed it up and brought it back to the crib |
| Just a little something, show you how we live |
| Everybody want it but it ain’t that serious |
| Mhm, that’s that shit |
| So if you gon' do it, do it just like this |
| Did you realize |
| That you were a champion in their eyes? |
| You don’t see just how wild the crowd is |
| You don’t see just how fly my style is |
| I don’t see why I need a stylist |
| When I shop so much I can speak Italian |
| I don’t know, I just want it better for my kids |
| And I ain’t sayin' we was from the projects |
| But every time I wanted layaway or a deposit |
| My dad’d say «when you see clothes, close your eyelids» |
| We was sort of like Will Smith and his son |
| In the movie, I ain’t talkin' 'bout the rich ones |
| Cause every summer, he’d get some |
| Brand new harebrained scheme to get rich from |
| And I don’t know what he did for dough |
| But he’d send me back to school with a new wardrobe |
| Did you realize |
| That you were a champion in their eyes? |
| I think he did |
| When he packed it up and brought it back to the crib |
| Just a little somethin', show you how we live |
| Everything I wanted, man it seem so serious |
| Mhm, that’s that shit |
| So if you gon' do it, do it just like this |
| Did you realize |
| That you were a champion in their eyes? |
| When it feel like living’s harder than dyin' |
| For me givin' up’s way harder than tryin' |
| Lauryn Hill said her heart was in Zion |
| I wish her heart still was in rhymin' |
| 'Cause who the kids gon' listen to, huh? |
| I guess me if it isn’t you |
| Last week I paid a visit to the institute |
| They got the dropout keepin' kids in the school |
| I guess I cleaned up my act like Prince’d do |
| If not for pleasure, then at least for the principle |
| They got the CD, they got to see me |
| Drop gems like I dropped out of PE |
| They used to feel invisible |
| Now they know they invincible |
| Did you realize |
| That you were a champion in their eyes? |
| This is the story of a champion |
| Runners on their mark and they pop their guns |
| Stand up, stand up, here he comes |
| Tell me what it takes to be number one |
| Tell me what it takes to be number one |
| This is the story of a champion |
| Runners on their mark and they pop their guns |
| Stand up, stand up, here he comes |
| Tell me what it takes to be number one |
| Tell me what it takes to be number one |
| Did you realize |
| That you were a champion in their eyes? |
| Yes I did |
| So I packed it up and brought it back to the crib |
| Just a little somethin', show you how we live |
| Everybody want it, but it ain’t that serious |
| Mhm, that’s that shit |
| So if you gon' do it, do it just like this… like this |
| Did you realize |
| That you were a champion in their eyes? |
