I can feel the pressure coming down on me
People say that im not destined to suceed
But i have the faith i need to carry on
And i will find the strength in me to prove them wrong

It isn't for the thrill
It isn't for the prize
It's all about a fight to stay alive
Knowing that the dream can still survive

Chorus
When you're out there on the edge
And the odds you face are life and death
You've got to have the heart of a champion
When your time is running out
And everybody sees youre going down
You've got to have a heart of a champion
When your backs against the wall
And your rival thinks your gonna fall
You've got to have a heart of a champion

come on, listen!
I have been through thick and thin and every vice
Standing in the winners circle has its price
I have learned to fight the good fight to the end
And if i had to i would do it all again

And when the sun goes down
I wont fear the night
I will keep my head towards the sky
Knowing that the Lord is on my side

Chorus

Heart of a champion
Come on
Heart of a champion
Heart of a champion

And when the darkness falls
I wont fear the night
I will keep my head toward the sky
Knowing that the Lord is on my side

Chorus
