Perspective

Hall of Fame*

They are champions in their domain, leaders and entrepreneurs shaped out of pure grit and unconventional ideas

Yeah, you could be the greatest
You can be the best
You can be the King Kong
Banging on your chest
 
You could beat the world
You could beat the war
You could talk to God,
Go banging on his door
 
You can throw your hands up
You can beat the clock
You can move a mountain
You can break rocks
You could be a master
Don’t wait for luck
Dedicate yourself and you go find yourself
 
Standing in the hall of fame
And the world’s gonna know your name
‘Cause you burn with the brightest flame
And the world’s gonna know your name
And you’ll be on the walls of the hall of fame
 
You can go the distance
You can run the mile
You can walk straight through hell with a smile
You could be the hero
You could get the gold
Breaking all the records that thought, never could be broke
 
Do it for your people
Do it for your pride
How you ever gonna know if you never even try?
Do it for your country
Do it for your name
‘Cause there’s gonna be a day
 
When you are standing in the hall of fame
And the world’s gonna know your name
‘Cause you burn with the brightest flame
And the world’s gonna know your name
And you’ll be on the walls of the hall of fame
 
Be a champion,
Be a champion,
Be a champion,
Be a champion
