The Greatest Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I will go to sleep now
With you on my mind
Smiling at your attempts
To shrink me to your size
Review my life, define me
It's all just in your eyes
Nothin' makes me weak now
I've learned to survive
[Chorus]
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will bе the greatest, grеatest, greatest
[Post-Chorus]
I will be loved (I will be)
I will be loved (I will be, I will be loved)
I will be loved
[Verse 2]
I've been gettin' out my mind
Feel like I've been left behind and
Nothin' over here defines me
Come find me, oh
Tryin' to escape the light
But I'm runnin' out of time and
Nothin' over here defines me
Come find me, oh
Everything is open now
But I will never let it take me
They will only know the fake me
I'm snakin'
Was I ever really down?
I don't understand the fightin'
Nothin' over here excites me
Come find me
[Chorus]
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
[Post-Chorus]
I will be loved (I will be)
I will be loved (I will be, I will be loved)
I will be loved
[Verse 3]
Underestimate you now
But I will never let them break me
They will only know the fake me
They thank me, oh
But they will try to bring you down
I don't understand the fightin'
Nothin' over here excites me
Come find me, oh
No one gets to know your name
'Til death is better kept a secret
Love is where the blood runs deepest
The steepest
Who am I to throw you blame?
Nothin' really left inside me
Nothin' over here defines me
Come find me
[Chorus]
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
[Post-Chorus]
I will be loved (I will be)
I will be loved (I will be, I will be loved)
I will be loved (I will be)
I will be loved
[Outro]
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, greatest, greatest
I will be the greatest, I will be the greatest
