Lyrics

Champion

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Gave you my love and my affection all of the time

Thought you were the one

Thought you were the one, but you had to lie

Up in my house, straight to my place

Looking right through my eyes

Thought you were the one

Thought you were the one, but you had to lie, so

I'ma walk away, like a champion

Hold my head up high, like I'm on that throne

Made a mess of me in front of everyone

I'm done

I'd rather be, rather be lonely, yeah, lonely, yeah

I'ma walk away, like a champion

I'm much better off, now I'm on my own

Made a mess of me in front of everyone

I'm done

I'd rather be, rather be lonely, yeah, lonely, yeah

I'd rather be, rather be lonely, yeah, lonely, yeah

I'd rather be, rather be lonely, yeah, lonely, yeah

Four in the morning

Got a groupie calling your phone

Thought I was the one

Thought I was the one, but I'm not alone

Gave you forgiveness

Gave you one thousand second chances

Thought I was the one

Thought I was the one, now I'm going home

I'ma walk away, like a champion

Hold my head up high, like I'm on that throne

Made a mess of me in front of everyone

I'm done

I'd rather be, rather be lonely, yeah, lonely, yeah

I'ma walk away, like a champion

I'm much better off, now I'm on my own

Made a mess of me in front of everyone

I'm done

I'd rather be, rather be lonely, yeah, lonely, yeah

I'd rather be, rather be lonely, yeah, lonely, yeah

I'd rather be, rather be lonely, yeah, lonely, yeah

You were everything, everything to me

I do, anything, anything to be right there

Kissing and touching your body

Laying side by side

My house, watching, watching a movie

You be texting with one of your groupies

Gave you nothing nothing you've ever seen

But you let the love die, so

I'ma walk away, like a champion

Hold my head up high, like I'm on that throne

Made a mess of me in front of everyone

I'm done

I'd rather be, rather be lonely, yeah, lonely, yeah

I'ma walk away, like a champion

I'm much better off, now I'm on my own

Made a mess of me in front of everyone

I'm done

I'd rather be, rather be lonely, yeah, lonely, yeah
