Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm gonna learn how to fly
I'm gonna make it to heaven
Baby, remember my name!
Baby, look at me
And tell me what you see
You ain't seen the best of me yet.
I'll make you forget the rest.
I got more in me,
And you can set it free
I can catch the moon in my hand
Don't you know who I am?
Remember my name. Fame!
I'm gonna live forever
I'm gonna learn how to fly--high!
I feel it comin' together
People will see me and cry. Fame!
I'm gonna make it to heaven
Light up the sky like a flame. Fame!
I'm gonna live forever
Baby, remember my name
Remember, remember, remember, remember,
Remember, remember, remember, remember.
Baby, hold me tight
Cause you can make it right.
You can shoot me straight to the top
Give me love and take all I got to give
Baby, I'll be tough
Too much is not enough, no
I can ride your heart 'till it breaks.
Ooh, I got what it takes.
