American Authors – Champion lyrics

[Verse 1: Zac Barnett]
The crowd only cheers when the blood hits the floor
Win or lose, it doesn't matter, they'll just replace me
And the crowd will still be screamin' for more, oh
I need to believe that an angel like you can save me

[Chorus: Zac Barnett]
Strung out in the sun
You bring me life when I'm undone
In my colosseum, you're my champion
When I'm cold and numb
Please tell me that you'll never run
In my colosseum, you're my champion
Champion—'cause I need you here to stay
Champion—fight the lions in my way
When I'm cold and numb
Please tell me that you'll never run
In my colosseum, you're my champion (Champion)

[Verse 2: Beau Young Prince]
Protect me like my armor, I can't feel the pain (Yeah)
I'm out with my knights like we don't see the day (Oh)
This crown on my head, I feel like a king (Yeah)
If she hold it down, I treat her like my queen
If you take a shot in the dark—don't miss
I am on top like accomplishments
I'm winnin' like I never really learned how to lose
If she by my side I don't really have to choose
Carpe diem, yeah, we seizin' the day (Seizin' the day)
Graduated from the league like it's May (Like it's May)
I got trophies, accolades, I got stats
I been working hard, I feel like I'm next (Yeah)
She supportive from the side, yeah, she cheers
But we equals when we level on the field
In the world searching for something real
I'm a king and my crown crystal clear, yeah

[Chorus: Zac Barnett]
Strung out in the sun
You bring me life when I'm undone
In my colosseum, you're my champion
When I'm cold and numb
Please tell me that you'll never run
In my colosseum, you're my champion
Champion—'cause I need you here to stay
Champion—fight the lions in my way
When I'm cold and numb
Please tell me that you'll never run
In my colosseum, you're my champion (Champion)

[Bridge: Zac Barnett]
Oh, oh, oh-oh (Whoo), oh, oh, oh (Yeah), oh, oh, oh-oh
There ain't no turnin' back
Oh, oh, oh-oh (Yeah), oh, oh, oh (Whoo), oh, oh, oh-oh
There ain't no, there ain't no turnin' back

[Chorus: Zac Barnett]
Strung out in the sun
You bring me life when I'm undone
In my colosseum, you're my champion
When I'm cold and numb
Please tell me that you'll never run
In my colosseum, you're my champion
Champion—'cause I need you here to stay
Champion—fight the lions in my way
When I'm cold and numb
Please tell me that you'll never run
In my colosseum, you're my champion (Champion)
