Champion Songtext / Lyric


Kanye West - Champion Songtext


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

Mmm hmm, 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 daddy'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 hare-brained scheme to get rich from

And I don't know what he did for dough

But he'd send me back to school wit' a new wardrobe and hey! hey! hey! hey!



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 lived

Everything I wanted man it seemed so serious

Mmm hmm, 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 livin'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 drop out keepin' kids in the school

I guess I'll clean up my act like Prince'll do

If not for the pleasure, least for the principle

They got the CD then got to see me drop gems

Like I dropped out of P.E.

They used to feel invisible

Now they know they invincible hey! hey! hey!



Did you realize

That you were a champion in their eyes?



This is the story of a champion

Runners on your mark and they pop the 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 your mark and they pop the 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

Mmm hmm, 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?
