Champion lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm alive again
More alive than I have ever been
And now I'm climbing, climbing to the top to win
And nothing's gonna stop, stop me in the end; victorious

[Pre-Chorus]
And every day that I awake
I say a prayer and I give thanks
That I'm alive and I am glad
That I've been given one more chance
My eyes are open, now I see
The powers dwelling within me
I've done the deeds, I've cleared my head
Now I am clean, back from the dead

[Chorus]
Whoa, I rise above it all, and I'm not coming down
Whoa, because a champion is what they call me now
And I'm not backing down, I will stand my ground
Whoa, because a champion is what they call me now

[Verse 2]
Look how far I've come, the wars that I have won
I think out loud, victorious and proud
The years behind, the tears I try to hide
This pain won't last, time to remove this mask
[Pre-Chorus]
My eyes are open now I see
The powers dwelling within me
I've done the deeds, I've cleared my head
Now I am clean, back from the dead

[Chorus]
Whoa, I rise above it all, and I'm not coming down
Whoa, because a champion is what they call me now
And I'm not backing down, I will stand my ground
Whoa, because a champion is what they call me now

[Post-Chorus]
Wait, stop, stop, hold on, hold on, hold on

[Verse 3]
I got this new head on my shoulders, and I'm looking for justice
So gladly seeking out b*tches that decided to talk sh*t
You want conflict? Well, I got it and I ain't gonna stop
Until I drop or take that motherf*cking place on top
Ain't given it back when I take that place, as a matter of fact, let's cut to the chase
Gonna take that spot on top of the list quick, call it statutory rape
You want some beef? Better bring a fork 'cause I'm never gonna pass the torch
Gonna keep going with the flows exposing you hoes to show you I'm more important
A little bit of dirt mixed with the mud, a little bit of rock mixed with a thug
Got a good heart inside my chest and a little bit of gangster in my blood
Been to jail, I've been to prison, went to hell and had a vision
Was presented with decision to change how I was living
Gotta give it up, gotta give it back, I've had enough, gotta get intact
As a matter of fact, gotta get these kats in check and stack these f*cking racks
Gotta get that cheese, gotta get that bread, gotta get that dough, gotta get ahead
Gotta cut no slack to these motherf*cking punks that held me down, back from the dead, go
[Breakdown]
Yeah

[Chorus]
Whoa, I rise above it all, and I'm not coming down
Whoa, because a champion is what they call me
Whoa, I rise above it all, and I'm not coming down
Whoa, because a champion is what they call me now
And I'm not backing down, I will stand my ground
Whoa, because a champion is what they call me, a champion is what they call me now
