  • Ever since I was a kid I've been dreaming about this
    First day of practice I was thinking about this
    Picture on the news, yeah they see about this
    Even in the paper they gon' read about this
    Cause all of my life, training day and night, I'm preparing to fight
    For everyone I believed in
    I was going insane, they were screaming our name
    While were spraying champagne
    There's nothing nobody can say

    Cause today is the day
    Is the day that I have always dreamed of forever
    When you call me, you call me the champ of the world
    I can raise my hands
    I can scream I'm the best in the world
    Whole world all my blood, sweat and grind
    Was all for this time

    Lap after lap, mile after mile
    Push up after push up, everybody count it out
    Everybody up, now we back down
    All my pain and sweat was for this moment right now
    All from different places well we came with each other
    We came together as a team,
    But we're leaving as brothers
    Standing next to one another while we hold up our colors
    I'm gon' look in to the camera and tell my mama I love her

    Cause today is the day
    Is the day that I have always dreamed of forever
    When you call me, you call me the champ of the world
    I can raise my hands
    I can scream I'm the best in the world
    Whole world, all my blood, sweat and grind, was all for this time

    Today is the day
    Is the day that I have always dreamed of forever
    When you call me,
    You call me the champ of the world
    I can raise my hands
    I can scream I'm the best in the world, whole world
    All my blood, sweat and grind
    Was all for this time

    Today is the day, Is the day that I have always dreamed of forever
    When you call me, you call me the champ of the world,
    I can raise my hands, I can scream I'm the best in the world
    Whole world, all my blood, sweat and grind
    Was all for this time Writer/s: Andrew Thielk, Cornell Haynes, Edward J. Montilla
