CHAMPIONS

(Album: Cottonwood 2 - 2023)

Ayy, man
Everybody stand up if you ever had your back up against the wall and had to fight back (d.a. got that dope)
This yo' anthem (Yeah)

My view from the top of the moon (Space)
I can see the whole world sitting in my hand, amazing view (Let's go)
We finna break the rules (Let's go)
And we gon' make 'em too (Make 'em too)
I can't fall or slip, I gotta stand tall, that's what a leader do (A leader do)
Follow me, I'm leading you (One, two, three, let's go)
Ayy, we finna turn up
Crank up the heat in here, they finna burn up
Told 'em I'm coming, I'm here
Tell 'em they time up
I said it one, I'ma say it again, "This here be my year" (This here be my year)
I ain't gon' show no fear
I know that I'm built, too equipped for what God want me to do
I'm number one, not the two
It ain't no way I'ma lose (Way I'ma lose)
I had to struggle, but it made me harder (Made me harder)
I made it far, but I wanna go farther (Wanna go farther)
This not for me, this for my son and my daughter, my family tree in that order (In that order)
I'm the chosen one, I'm wearing that jacket (Wearing that jacket)
I was down, now I'm up
Now I was the underdog, now look who be laughing
I'm better than who you gassing, and

The champions (Champions), the champions (Champions)
Ayy, we gon' ball never fall, the champions (Champions)
The champions (Champions), the champions (Champions)
Ayy, we gon' ball, never fall, I put my head up
And told 'em, "Crown me"
My ring finger got a rock on it, rock on it
I put my head up
And told 'em, "Crown me"
My ring finger got a rock on it, rock on it, rock on it

Threw dirt on my name, tried to bury me (Bury me)
Threw salt on me like they was seasoning
Now, this my season
Weathered every storm that was in my way, but promise you, it wasn't easy (Wasn't easy)
Took some patience and grieving
I was believing when no one believe me (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
I was believing when no one believe me (Let's go)
Now they got to see me from the nose bleed or the front row
I don't care what seat
Dreams to reality, I'm too real for reality TV
Remember I was piss poor, now I'm writing this song from a balcony
Told 'em, "Watch out for me"
But they ain't see me coming, now they road kill (Road kill)
Know what long nights on that road feel like
Keep pushing, even though we don't feel right (It don't feel right)
Blood, sweat, and tears just to live life
Talked to God even when I didn't see light (Didn't see light)
Still talk to Him when it got bright
Dark days, but made for the spotlight
We paid, now mama can sleep tight

Champions (Champions), the champions (Champions, told 'em crown me)
Ayy, we gon' ball never fall, the champions (Mm-hmm)
The champions (Champions), the champions (Champions)
Ayy, we gon' ball never fall, I put my head up
And told 'em, "Crown me"
My ring finger got a rock on it, rock on it
I put my head up
And told 'em, "Crown me"
My ring finger got a rock on it, rock on it, rock on it

So we put our head up
Ring finger got a rock on it, rock on it, rock on it
So we put our head up (Ayy, yeah-ah)
Ring finger got a rock on it, rock on it, rock on it
So we put our head up
We gon' ball, never fall
Got a rock on it, rock on it

The champions, the champions
Ayy, we gon' ball never fall, the champions
The champions, the champions
Ayy, we gon' ball never fall, I put my head up
And told 'em, "Crown me"
My ring finger got a rock on it, rock on it
I put my head up
And told 'em, "Crown me"
My ring finger got a rock on it, rock on it, rock on it
