Lyrics

I Wanna Be On Top
© 2006 Will Stanley

I've been singing since I was two
Spent my youth in dirty bars, just playing the blues
I'm sure, that I've got what it takes to
Be a star, when I get my breakthrough
In the meantime, I keep paying my dues
I've waited and been patient
Now it's time to show I'm hell-bent
Chorus: I wanna be great, I wanna hit the heights
I know that success, won't happen overnight
I'm willing to work, 'til I get it right
And nothing will make me stop
I'll try to be smart, I'll try to be shrewd
When things are looking down, I'll change my attitude
Every single mistake, will help me improve
Cuz I wanna be on top

The greatest thrill on this earth
Is a crowd of fans screaming for all their worth
I can't wait till I'm in that limelight
Belting out a tune with all my might
I'll show 'em all, I'm substance not hype
I'm bound and I'm determined
To make it clear that it's my turn.
Chorus: I wanna be great, I wanna hit the heights
I know that success, won't happen overnight
I'm willing to work, 'til I get it right
And nothing will make me stop
I'll try to be smart, I'll try to be shrewd
When things are looking down, I'll change my attitude
Every single mistake, will help me improve
Cuz I wanna be on top
Bridge: My daddy told me always live your dream
Even though it won't always be peaches and cream
You've got the skill, and the desire
Let everybody watch, as you catch fire.

I wanna be great, I wanna hit the heights
I know that success, won't happen overnight
I'm willing to work, 'til it's right
And nothing will make me stop
I'll try to be smart, I'll try to be shrewd
When things are looking bad, I'll change my attitude
Every single mistake, will help me improve
Cuz I wanna be on top
