Champion
DjT.O Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am the champion (okay)
I am the champion (did it just get serious in here?)
Lights, cameras, action (I think it did)
Whenever I play

Now say, "We are the champions" (we are the champions)
We are the champions (we are the champions)
Now say, "We are the champions" (we are the champions)

We are the champions (we are the champions)

Okay Bob hit the stage now
Lights and cameras on
Yes I'm givin them want they want but no
I will not ever conform
'Cause I'm outside of the norm still
What a spectacular form
From the blood sweat and the tears shed
Every time I perform
And whenever your doin' your thang, yep
People gonna hate on it usually (that's right)
But I'm just as human as you I just look good while doin' it
And they telling me I have so much dough
I won't know what to do with it, hmm, well until then
I'ma continuin' maneuverin', because

I am the champion (quite a spectacular athlete)
I am the champion (if I do say so myself)
Lights, cameras, action (hahaha, seriously)
Whenever I play

Now say, "We are the champions" (we are the champions)
We are the champions (we are the champions)
Now say, "We are the champions" (we are the champions)
We are the champions (we are the champions)

I look in the mirror and laugh like
Look at what I've become
Everyone calls me Bob but I'm still my mother's son
And I'm lowkey when I'm out now, hell no, fame ain't fun
But I stay Live like NBA on yo' Playstation
And I entertain 'cause I'm in the game
It's easy to see I ain't into fame ('cause I ain't)
And the critics say that I imitate, but I really can't (Andre)
Please allow me to demonstrate, no matter what they say
I stay charged up like a triple A
(Really mane?) Really mane

I am the champion (I wake up and piss excellence)
I am the champion (all day)
Lights, cameras, action (please hold your applause)
Whenever I play (I'm kind of a big deal)

Now say, "We are the champions" (we are the champions)
We are the champions (we are the champions)
Now say, "We are the champions" (we are the champions)
We are the champions (we are the champions)

Hoo hoo you be too scared you need to go home
Hoo hoo you be too scared you need to go home
Hoo hoo you be too scared you need to go home
Ch'yeah you need to go home
Ch'yeah you need to go home

I am the champion (hey what can I say?)
I am the champion (hahaha)
Lights, cameras, action (please, no interviews)
Whenever I play (hahaha)

Now say, "We are the champions" (we are the champions)
We are the champions (we are the champions)
Now say, "We are the champions" (we are the champions)
We are the champions (we are the champions)

Whenever I
Whenever I play
Play
Whenever I

Whenever I play
Play
