Champion (The Official Anthem Of The Commonwealth Games 2022)

[Verse - UB40]
Whatever race, colour or creed
We all share the same dream to succeed
If you have the power and the speed
With the will to lead
You can be the number one champion

[Chorus - UB40]
Higher, faster, further, stronger
Bigger, better deeper, longer
If you taken on the best
And you've risen to the test
You can be the number one champion

[Verse - UB40]
It's from the moment you rise
To when you stеp on that starting line
Just one thought passes through your mind:
"Today is gonna bе all mine"
It's not about win or lose
To always better yourself is the path you choose
Put one foot forward and do what whatever you were meant to

[Gilly G]
Welcome to my city: Birmingham
Calling all my Commonwealth fam
Summertime when the city haffi ram
We heading to the Alexander Stadium
Come follow me jamboree
Commonwealth: the people's party
Rise up and stand 'pon your feet (Wo-ah!)
'Cos we've come for compete!

[Dapz]
Play your position, play your part, play it smart
You can stand your ground or you can fall apart
You can stop and start or be consistent from the start
Hard work beats talent if talent don't work hard
Put trust in your vision, no it ain't no facade
Came to leave your mark
Been ready from "on your marks"
'Cos you can be the number one champion

[Chorus - UB40]
Higher, faster, further, stronger
Bigger, better deeper, longer
If you taken on the best
And you've risen to the test
You can be the number one champion

Higher, faster, further, stronger
Bigger, better deeper, longer
If you taken on the best
And you've risen to the test
You can be the number one champion

Higher, faster, further, stronger
Bigger, better deeper, longer
If you taken on the best
And you've risen to the test
You can be the number one champion
