"champion" lyrics

blackwave. & Jordan Mackampa Lyrics

"champion"

Always been your favorite
Always been the greatest
In your eyes, any challenge I could face it
In your mind, only winning no defeat, any leap I would make it
Most often I did but sometimes I didn't
Banging my head against the ceiling that you set for me

To break and jump through
To do what you couldn't do
And make me a champion
Could never be number two
Did exactly what you want
Cuz you been the number one on my list
The one that I wanted to be impressed

I'ma be a champion
That's what you always told me
I'ma be the best of the best
Like you told me to be
But if I fail will you still be proud?
Pick me up when I'm on the ground?
Or did I let you down?
Did I let you down?

Mom's did it different
With different vision
Fighting her own fights
Providing, the mission
Racing both of our races
Gave me all the equipment
All imaginable tools
A place we could live in
Talking her talk
I wasn't the best listener
Living my damn life
I drew my own picture
Doing all in her power
Swear ain't no competition
Been giving me everything
On that every day shit
Man shit had me trippin'
Hating the feeling
That the part that was missing
One that she could never fill in
Cuz she wasn't you
She wasn't you
And to tell you the truth, still put the blame on you
For everything I did, everything I do
Cuz the path that you paved
Is how I move
So before we get back around and I'm back with you

I'ma be a champion
That's what you always told me
I'ma be the best of the best
Like you told me to be
Three point fade, I'ma hit the shot
Figure out a way I can beat the clock
And give it all I got
I'ma give it all I got

Who am I trying to impress?
You, or the voices in my head?
All these expectations
Gotta lay them to rest
The more that I try
The more the question rises
Am I doing it for me?
Why is it so hard to see?
Through the morning mist
As the hours pass
The daylight comes shining through
Everything that was hiding soon
Will rise and make room
For the sun like the moon
And if I never try
I only lose

I'ma be a champion
That's what you always told me
I'ma be the best of the best
Like you told me to be
And even if life doesn't go your way
I'ma still love you just the same
'Cause you're number one
You're still number one

I'ma be a champion, champion
'Cause you're number one
You're still number one
I'ma be a champion, champion
'Cause you're number one
You're still number one
