I am a mountain

I am a tall tree, oh

I am a swift wind

Sweeping the country

I am a river

Down in the valley, oh

I am a vision

And I can see clearly

If anybody asks you who I am

Just stand up tall, look 'em in the face and say

I'm that star up in the sky

I'm that mountain peak up high

Hey I made it, hmm

I'm the world's greatest

I'm that little bit of hope

When my back's against the ropes

I can feel it, hmm

I'm the world's greatest

I am a giant

I am an eagle, oh

I am a lion

Down in the jungle

I am a marching band

I am the people, oh

I am a helping hand

I am a hero

If anybody asks you who I am

Just stand up tall look 'em in the face and say

I'm that star up in the sky

I'm that mountain peak up high

Hey I made it, hmm

I'm the world's greatest

And I'm that little bit of hope

When my back's against the ropes

I can feel it, hmm

I'm the world's greatest

In the ring of life

I'll reign love (I will reign)

And the world will notice a king (oh, yeah)

Wherever it's darkest

I'll shine a light (shine a light)

And mirrors of success reflect in me (me)

I'm that star up in the sky (oh, yeah, yeah)

I'm that mountain peak up high (high)

Hey I made it (said I made it)

I'm the world's greatest (I'm that little bit)

I'm that little bit of hope (of hope, yeah)

When my back's against the ropes (I can)

I can feel it (feel it)

I'm the worlds greatest (whoa)

I'm that star up in the sky (star up in the sky)

I'm that mountain peak up high (oh yes I am)

Hey I made it (I done made it)

I'm the world's greatest

I'm that little bit of hope (I'm that little bit of hope, yeah)

When my back's against the ropes (when my back's against the ropes)

I can feel it (I can feel)

I'm the world's greatest (I saw the light)

I'm that star up in the sky (at the end of the tunnel)

I'm that mountain peak up high (believe in the pot pf gold)

Hey I made it (at the of the rainbow)

I'm the world's greatest (and faith was right there)

I'm that little bit of hope (to pull me through, yeah)

When my back's against the ropes (used to be lock doors)

I can feel it (now I can just walk through)

I'm the world's greatest

Can you feel it?

(Can you feel it?) He's the greatest

(He's the greatest) Can you feel it?

(Can you feel it?) I saw the light

(He's the greatest) At the end of the tunnel

(Can you feel it?) Believe in a pot of gold

(He's the greatest) At the end of a rainbow

(Can you feel it?) And faith was right there

(He's the greatest) To pull me through, yeah
