Champion
Fireboy Dml Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm the best my generation ever seen
I came suddenly
I be like nepa bill
And ever since I never miss
I've been smashing
I've been killing everything
From Ikeja to Ojuelegba beach
Remember this
I'm a king
I'm a legend in the making
I'm a champion
Champion, champion
I'm a motherfucking champion
Remember this
I'm a king
I'm a legend in the making
I'm a champion
Champion, champion
I'm a motherfucking champion
Remember this
I'm a king
I'm a legend in the making
I'm a
Super good
Ay I been finding silver lining
Where them other say
I need patience in good time
And I've been reclining my designer
I've been grinding for my needs
But a way to give my nephew
Put them diamonds on my niece, shining
So dope that I purchased 88 keys
For my man to play a song
I call my eighty HD
With this baby face fine girls them really hate me
Give them belly eggs level ways deep
Every occasion I put money in safe, keep
Very impatient, be on time when you pay me
Very invasive when they hating
What they see
Made me a nation then they called me a stale king
Bill rings in
In my hands are raised
MGM grinding andale
Envy him now and my victory is just began
When you see me
Just know that you looking at a motherfucking champion
Champion, champion
I'm a motherfucking champion
Remember this
I'm a king
I'm a legend in the making
I'm a champion
Champion, champion
I'm a motherfucking champion
Remember this
I'm a king
I'm a legend in the making
I'm a average boy from the average street
With an empty pocket and a bag of dreams
Many things wey hin eyes don see
Many tears wey hin eyes don bleed
Through the rise and falls
I made it to the top
E no get anything wey you wan talk
Oh I'm a champion
Champion, champion
I'm a motherfucking champion
I'm a king
I'm a legend in the making
I'm a champion
Champion, champion
I'm a motherfucking champion
Remember this
I'm a legend in the making
I'm a
In "Champion," Fireboy DML boasts about being a king, a legendary figure, and a champion. He believes that he is the best and most exceptional person of his generation. He compares himself to a Nepa bill that "never misses." This line refers to the famous Nigerian electricity utility company that was notoriously known for never being available or always late but once it arrives, it is ever-present. Therefore, Fireboy compares himself to Nepa as a reference to his sudden rise and consistent success.
He continues to express his achievements by mentioning he has been "smashing" and "killing everything." Fireboy discusses his journey from Ikeja to Ojuelegba beach, two Lagos neighborhoods known for their hustle and bustle. He acknowledges that he has never been everywhere, but wherever he goes, he makes an impact.
The verse "I'm a average boy from the average street, With an empty pocket and a bag of dreams, Many things wey hin eyes don see, Many tears wey hin eyes don bleed, Through the rise and falls, I made it to the top, E no get anything wey you wan talk," stresses his humble beginnings while alluding that he has faced many challenges in his life before attaining success. Despite this, Fireboy believes he deserves the title of a champion, and nothing can change his status.
