Some people have to learn
Some people wait their turn
Some people have to fight
Some people give their lives
They wanna hold you back tell 'em pee off.
Whenever they say you can't take the c off.
I remember when they told me i wouldn't be famous,
Now my dream and reality's simultaneous.
And, work your own way to the top
If they put you on a pedestal, they can take you off.
And there's a higher level than the top
You gotta make more, don't make do with what you got
Yeah, so go and get it in sunny
Not everybody get's a second chance at getting money
Or even getting lucky,
So you gotta fill the hunger in your tummy.
I'm always pushing myself to the limit
Making sure I stay ahead,
You made me who I am
From the words you said.
Some people have to learn
Some people wait their turn
Some people, but not me
I was born champion.
Some people have to fight
Some people give their lives
Some people don't believe
But I was born a champion
But I was born a champion
But I was born a champion
This gon' be the realist shit I ever wrote
Off the records, no cameras forget a quote
Some of my family doing good, most doing dope
I'm from Virginia where they hang them nigga's by a rope
I used to see my momma getting beat down
Is that the real definition of me now?
I fell off, back on my feet now
Heading to the sky, can't even see down.
Award shows, I pour my heart out
And people still study trynna point my flaws out.
And I be lying if I say it ain't get to me
But I'm a champion, legend, history.
I'm always pushing myself to the limit
Making sure I stay ahead,
You made me who I am
From the words you said.
Some people have to learn
Some people wait their turn
Some people, but not me
I was born champion.
Some people have to fight
Some people give their lives
Some people don't believe
But I was born a champion
But I was born a champion
But I was born a champion
Ok, no one wants to help, I guess you're on your own
Build the foundation with the bricks they've thrown.
In a black and white world true colours show
Change if you want, everybody grows
And life's like an ill, but try an' get a hold
Opinions ain't facts take 'em in an' let 'em go
You made me who I am
From the words you said
Some people have to learn
Some people wait their turn
Some people, but not me
I was born champion.
Some people have to fight
Some people give their lives
Some people don't believe
But I was born a champion
Some people have to learn
Some people wait their turn
Some people, but not me
I was born champion.
Some people have to fight
Some people give their lives
Some people don't believe
But I was born a champion
But I was born a champion
But was born a champion.
