Lyrics for Keke Palmer – The Greatest
What I want you to do
Is put your hands in the air right nowYou can push me to the edge
I’ll come back like an avalanche,
I’m ready
Got both my feet on the ground
The world is waiting for me
I’ll put the stars in the sky
In my hand and into my pocket
Build a castle way up high
Come down on a rocketThe best is yet to come for me
Out there somewhere
So put your hands in the air
If you ever dreamed this beforeI could be the greatest
Be the greatest,
You could be the greatest
Be the greatest
Be the greatest,
I could be the greatest of all
You could be the greatest of allI’ll make the impossible, believable
The unthinkable, to see.
I’ll drive right on a rainbow
And crash into my dreams
Be that diamond in the rough
To light up the whole wide world
Like I’m in a race
I’ll grab the torch
And run to victoryThe best is yet to come for me
Out there somewhere
So put your hands in the air
If you ever dreamed this beforeI could be the greatest
Be the greatest
You could be the greatest
Be the greatest
Be the greatest
I could be the greatest of all
You could be the greatest of allI have all the power to do what I want.
There isn’t anyone who can tell me I don’t.
I got it, I want it, I need it, I own it.
With the fire in my eyes.
No limits to the sky.
I’m flying so high.You know, you can be anything you want.
You hold the keys to your destiny
Like, you could be the greatestI could be the greatest
Be the greatest
You could be the greatest
Be the greatest
Be the greatest
I could be the greatest of all
You could be the greatest of all
