We Would Be Champions (Early Mix)

about

Inspiration can come from anywhere. And when you are in quarantine, it has to. In this case, I was watching a documentary (or rather, had it on in the background while zoning) about Michael Jordan. His story challenges any and everyone to reflect on his own situation: whatever it is that drives you, actually take some time and do it. No prior setback can be a permanent excuse.

lyrics

We Would Be Champions

remember i said
we would be champions.
live life with no regrets.

if you've got no reputation
words won't mean a thing
no song can be written
for someone too scared to sing

remember i said
we would be champions.
live life with no regrets.

all day long i'm dreaming
then i'm wide awake in bed
i guess you can't sleep forever
it's morning, the baby's crying
it's time to leave

remember i said
we would be champions.
live life with no regrets.

you said that you're still hungry
for something more than this
phone calls over dinner
how's life? it is what it is

got no reputation
words won't say a thing
no song can be written
for someone too scared to sing
all day long i'm dreaming
then i'm wide awake in bed
i guess you cannot sleep forever
and if i'm not living
i might as well be dead.

remember i said
we would be champions.
live life with no regrets.
