Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'll be the last one standing
Two hands in the air, I'm a champion
You'll be looking up at me when it's over
I live for the battle, I'm a soldier, yeah
[Verse 2]
I'm a fighter like Rocky
Put you flat on your back like Ali
Yeah, I'm the greatest, I'm stronger
Paid my dues, can't lose, I'ma own ya
Eh-eh
[PreChorus]
I've been working my whole life
And now it's do or die
[Chorus]
I am invincible, unbreakable
Unstoppable, unshakeable
They knock me down, I get up again
I am the champion
You're gonna know my name
You can't hurt me now, I can't feel the pain
I was made for this, yeah, I was born to win
I am the champion
[Verse 3]
When they write my story
They're gonna say that I did it for the glory
But don't think that I did it for the fame, yeah
I did it for the love of the game, yeah
[Verse 4]
And this is my chance I'm taking
All them old records I'm breaking
All you people watching on the TV
You go ahead and put your bets on me
Eh-eh
[PreChorus]
I've been waiting my whole life
To see my name in lights
[Chorus]
I am invincible, unbreakable
Unstoppable, unshakeable
They knock me down, I get up again
I am the champion
You're gonna know my name
You can't hurt me now, I can't feel the pain
I was made for this, yeah, I was born to win
I am the champion, oh-oh-oh
[Verse 5]
Born champion (Luda!)
The C is for the courage I possess through the drama
H is for the hurt, but it's all for the honor
A is for my attitude, working through the patience
Money comes and goes, so the M is for motivation
Gotta stay consistent, the P is to persevere
The I is for integrity, innovative career
The O is optimistic, open, and never shut
And the N is necessary 'cause I'm never giving up
[Verse 6]
See, they ask me how I did it, I just did it from the heart
Crushing the competition, been doing it from the start
They say that every champion is all about his principles
Carrie!
[Chorus]
I am invincible, unbreakable
Unstoppable, unshakeable
They knock me down, I get up again
I am the champion
You're gonna know my name
You can't hurt me now, I can't feel the pain
I was made for this, yeah, I was born to win
I am the champion
[Bridge]
I'm a champion, yeah
Surpassed all rivals
It's all about who wants it the most
I am the champion
Fight for what we believe in
That's what champions are made of, yeah
[Outro]
I am the champion
