Champion |
| Success in life comes when you simply refuse to give up |
| On a mission so strong that obstacles like failure and loss only act as |
| motivation |
| I mean like, no one has the power to shatter your dreams unless you give it to |
| them |
| When something’s telling me to stop, I never do that in the name of love |
| Until I’ve given it my all and it just ain’t enough |
| See even if it’s getting realer than they say it was |
| Straighten up, who’s afraid of what? |
| Player get involved |
| Nah, you work hard 'til you’re better off |
| 24/7, 365, never off |
| Look at me, I’m nocturnal, I don’t sleep |
| My eyes heavy, bags and crow’s feet |
| But I won’t be stopped I go from tragedy to majesty |
| The victory has been woven into my tapestry |
| My adversary’s not cut from the same flag as me |
| That’s why the champion’s gonna be who it has be |
| This ain’t the type of opportunity that just appeared |
| I made it here because I shed blood sweat and tears |
| Forget the title, I forever have my sights on |
| This is where I become an American Icon |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| Cause real champions move like champions |
| And real champions prove that they’re champions |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| Cause real champions move like champions |
| And real champions prove that they’re champions |
| Listen, forward motion never fail |
| I learn to hustle, it’s part of a cautionary tail |
| Hard work is something I know very well |
| A lesson in a blessing out of each and every L, I ball |
| I fell in love with the game and never look back |
| My foundation and frame, they never shook that |
| Been trailblazing my name into the book that |
| Represent all the champs who had a chance and took that |
| And laser focus is the reoccurring theme |
| Forever coming to me like a reoccurring dream |
| If we weren’t kings, we’d probably be swimming up stream |
| Tryna make the devil come clean for the umpteenth |
| You know me as the global dean from the noble team |
| So convene and the whole regime shall be overseen |
| I’m a pillar like a column in the Pantheon |
| Competition I can’t see 'em, I’m champion |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| Cause real champions move like champions |
| And real champions prove that they’re champions |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| Cause real champions move like champions |
| And real champions prove that they’re champions |
| I’m gon' prove that I’m the champion |
| And if there’s something I can’t do, then it can’t be done |
| And I ain’t saying I don’t lose, I’m saying I’m the only one |
| And if it’s either I or you, you best believe there’s only gon' be one… |
| true champion |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| Cause real champions move like champions |
| And real champions prove that they’re champions |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| Cause real champions move like champions |
| And real champions prove that they’re champions |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| Cause real champions move like champions |
| And real champions prove that they’re champions |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| If you a champion, show me you a champion |
| Cause real champions move like champions |
| And real champions prove that they’re champions |
