Lyrics

[00:00.00] Did you realize
[00:03.44] That you are a champion?
[00:04.50] Yeah right
[00:05.87]
[00:06.74] Yes I did, so I packed it up and brought it back to the crib
[00:09.64] Just a lil' somethin' show you how we live
[00:11.74]
[00:12.26] E'r'body want it but it ain't that se'ious
[00:13.65] Mmhmm, that's that sh*t
[00:16.79] So if you gon' do it, do it just like this
[00:19.48] (Did you realize
[00:20.15] That you are a champion?
[00:23.09]
[00:23.80] Yeah right)
[00:24.75]Verse 1:]
[00:25.09] You don't see just how wild the crowd is?
[00:26.80] You don't see just how fly my style is?
[00:29.00] I don't know why I need a stylist
[00:30.96] When I shop so much I can speak Italian
[00:33.04]
[00:33.73] I don't know I just wanted better for my kids
[00:36.09] And I ain't sayin' we was from the projects
[00:37.54] But everytime I want it, layaway or a deposit
[00:40.63] My dad'll say "when you see clothes close ya eyelids"
[00:43.35] We was sorta like Will Smith and his son
[00:45.50] In the movie I ain't talkin' 'bout the rich ones
[00:47.66] 'Cause every summer he'll get some
[00:49.99] Brand new hare-brained scheme to get rich from
[00:52.30] And I don't know what he did for dough
[00:54.45] But he'd sent me back to school wit' a new wardrobe and hey!
[00:57.08]Chorus 2: Kanye & (sample)]
[00:58.10] (Did you realize
[00:59.38] That you are a champion?
[01:00.33] Yeah right)
[01:01.11] I think he did, when he packed it up and brought it back to the crib
[01:06.29] Just a lil' somethin' show you how we live
[01:08.30]
[01:08.84] E'r'thing I wanted man it seemed so se'ious
[01:11.16] Mmhmm, that's that sh*t
[01:13.34] So if you gon' do it, do it just like this
[01:15.92] (Did you realize
[01:16.78]
[01:18.72] That you are a champion?
[01:20.41] Yeah right)
[01:21.18]Verse 2:]
[01:21.51] When it feel like livin's harder than dyin'
[01:23.14] For me givin' up's way harder than tryin'
[01:25.28] Lauryn Hill say her heart was in Zion
[01:27.67] I wish her heart still was in rhymin'
[01:29.62]
[01:30.28] 'Cause who the kids gon' listen to? Huh?
[01:33.29] I guess me if it isn't you
[01:34.98] Last week I paid a visit to the institute
[01:37.27] They got the crop out keepin' kids in the school
[01:39.62] I guess I'll clean up my act like Prince'll do
[01:41.77] If not for the pleasure, least for the principle
[01:44.18] They got the CD then got to see me drop gems
[01:46.57] Like I dropped out of P.E.
[01:48.18]
[01:49.96] They used to feel invisible
[01:51.15]
[01:52.19] Now they know they invincible
[01:53.95]Chorus 3: unknown singer & (sample)]
[01:54.99] (Did you realize
[01:55.73] That you are a champion?
[01:58.03] Yeah right)
[01:58.82] This is the story of a champion
[02:00.62] Rounders in the mob and they pop the guns
[02:02.72] Stand up stand up! Here he comes
[02:05.04] Tell me what it takes to be number one?
[02:06.54] Tell me what it takes to be number one?
[02:09.74] This is the story of a champion
[02:11.66]
[02:12.21] Rounders in the mob and they pop the guns
[02:14.58] Stand up stand up! Here he comes
[02:16.72] Tell me what it takes to be number one?
[02:19.32] Tell me what it takes to be number one?
