(Quavo!)
Lifestyle on camera
Hundred thousand dollar chandelier
They tried to turn me to an animal
But white people think I'm radical
Supermodels think I'm handsome
You might think I'm too aggressive
But really I think I'm too passive
'Til I pull out the chopper, start blastin'

1500, all in singles (straight up!)
Throw it up, watch it fall and drop
'Round and 'round they go
'Round and 'round they go (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Pray for me
I'm about to hit the 'Ye button
I don't wanna say nothin' wrong
But it'd be wrong if I ain't say nothin'
Imagine if I ain't say somethin'
Wouldn't none these niggas say nothin'
I done lost and made money
Now I'm makin' somethin' they can't take from me
And I'm fresh out of debt in this muhfucka!
And they still ain't ready yet for a muhfucka!
Yeezy might have to go and put his Louis on
I'm 'bout to go Gucci in the Gucci store

It's Gucci!
Fresh out the feds in this mothafucker
And they still ain't ready yet for a muhfucka
Gucci Mane and I'm 'bout to put my Yeezys on
Now that Gucci home, it's over for you Gucci clones

1500, all in singles (straight up!)
Throw it up, watch it fall and drop
'Round and 'round they go
'Round and 'round they go
Champions, we run the city
Number one, they fallin' from the top
'Round and 'round they go
'Round and 'round they go (straight up)

Look, I say a prayer for my enemies
They cannot slow down what's meant for me
Funny how they come around like I can't see through they secret identities
Lately, it's all about Zen in me
Subtractin' the negative energy
Fuck with the family, turn your ass to a memory
My niggas keep it a century
I blow the check up, nigga, detonation
Kill 'em one by one, Final Destination
Top my destination
I got guardian angels all around a nigga, that's deflectin' Satan
I'm a mothafuckin' champion
This right here the fuckin' anthem
I can't dap you without hand san'
I don't know where your dirty ass hands been
I wake up to like a hundred texts
Championship team, but we can't cut the net
She all off in my jersey lookin' underdressed
I'm finna buy this bitch a Honda CRX
With

1500, all in singles (straight up!)
Throw it up, watch it fall and drop
'Round and 'round they go ('round and 'round it go, 'round and 'round it go)
'Round and 'round they go
I'd rather be strapped and ride with a pole
Than to get down in a hole

I took a nap in the pulpit
I never like how a suit fit
I got a pocket full of money
It got me walkin' all slew-foot
I'm on my wave like a cruise ship
In that hoe mouth like a toothpick
Anyone get in my way
Nothin' to say, I tote 'em choppas like pool sticks
I wear pajamas to Ruth's Chris
Couldn't walk a mile in my new kicks
I'm comin' from the apartments
We never had our damn pool fixed
Walk in the mall with my new bitch
Tell her to get the whole rack
My new bitch gon' pull me a new bitch
Then pull me a new bitch
See that is a snowball effect
I got gold on my neck
Lookin' like a Super Bowl on my neck
I got a mansion full of marble floors
It look like I could go bowl in this bitch
Versace logos on bowls in this bitch
Like I'm a serial killer
I put the real in gorilla
I did this shit for my niggas, yeah

1500, all in singles (straight up!)
Throw it up, watch it fall and drop
'Round and 'round they go ('round and 'round it go, 'round and 'round it go)
'Round and 'round they go
Rather be strapped and ride with a pole
Than to get down in a hole
Champions, we run the city
Number one, they fallin' from the top
'Round and 'round they go ('round and 'round it go, 'round and 'round it go)
'Round and 'round they go
Rather be strapped and ride with a pole
Than to get down in a hole

Reach for my chain is suicide
The car I drive fit two inside
They mad at 'Ye 'cause he all in the neighborhood
But he let them goons inside
Let's fuck up the neighborhood
Let's fuck up the neighborhood
Buy every house in this bitch
You know that the money good
My wrist in the kitchen go 'round and 'round
Play with the kid, I'ma gun you down
The roof on that Wraith in the lost and found
Official trap shit let me slow it down
Way more shit than a Pamper
All we rock is bandanas
Whips so nasty, no manners
I just got head in a Phantom

She say she don't want a chump, baby want a champ
She say money make her cum, Gucci make her damp (Gucci)
1017's the Squad, Gucci Mane's the stamp
And he don't never sleep, he's a fuckin' vamp
I heard your bitch ridin' on the bus, you don't give a damn
My bitch drive a Lamb', you should call her ma'am
I love my Auntie Jane, but fuck Uncle Sam
I'm a walkin' money machine, check my Instagram
Niggas never test the kid so I don't have to cram
My city treat me like a king, I should wear a crown
And I don't really fuck around
I gave my bitch two mil' 'cause she stuck around

1500, all in singles (straight up)
Throw it up, watch it fall and drop
'Round and 'round they go ('round and 'round it go, 'round and 'round it go)
'Round and 'round they go
Rather be strapped and ride with a pole
Than to get down in a hole
Champions, we run the city
Number one, they fallin' from the top
'Round and 'round they go ('round and 'round it go)
'Round and 'round they go




Rather be strapped and ride with a pole
Than to get down in a hole

Overall Meaning

The song "Champions" by Kanye West featuring Travis Quavo, Big Sean, Yo Gotti, Gucci 2 Chainz, and Desiigner is a powerful anthem of victory, boasting pride in the achievements of the Roc-A-Fella Dream Team. The first verse opens with "Time after time, I've done my sentence, but committed no crime," and this could be interpreted as a metaphor for the resilience and perseverance that the Roc-A-Fella Dream Team has exhibited in the face of adversity. They may have faced setbacks and challenges, but they have not let these things define them or hold them back. Instead, they have refused to be defeated and have continued to push forward, inspiring others to join them on their journey to greatness.


The chorus of the song, which repeats the words "We are the champions," reinforces this idea of triumph and success. It is a call to arms for those who have struggled and overcome, urging them to stand tall and celebrate their victories. The song is also notable for its many references to hip-hop legends, such as B.I.G., 2Pac, and Scottie Pippen, as well as its bold declarations of superiority over other labels and artists.


Line by Line Meaning

Time after time
Despite facing hardships multiple times,


I've done my sentence
I have gone through tough times


But committed no crime
I haven't done anything wrong


And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We plan to keep moving forward and succeeding


We are the champions, my friend
We have achieved success and victory


And we'll keep on fighting, to the end
We will continue to work tirelessly towards our goals


No time for losers
We don't have time for failure


Cause we are the champions, of the world
We have achieved unparalleled success
