“Champion” by COAX – A Song Feature

 

     “Champion” triggers daydreams of attending a COAX concert when the song is performed. The anthem invites audience participation. The song gives the false impression that its anthemic nature and power vocals are the attractions. But 54 seconds into “Champion,” the instruments flex their musical muscle.  
 
     COAX describes “Champion” as “a gritty, guitar-driven anthem inspired by that overpowering feeling of wanting more from life and stopping at nothing until you get it.” COAX is a trio based in the UK and comprises Andy Muscat (guitar, vocals), Ben Kennedy (drums), and Chris Swan (bass).

Lyrics of “Champion” by COAX
I've been down so long I could give up
The cold inside makes me shiver
The tears they flow like a river
 
And I've tried so hard just to make it
To the point where my fingers are breaking
I don't know how much longer I can take it
 
So please don't take this personally
Cause baby this is personal to me
 
See my passion, see my fire
See this champion, see his desire
And I know that nothing matters to me
No nothing really matters but this victory
 
I could drown in the blood that I'm shedding
Is this hell or the start of Armageddon?
And I won't stop 'til I'm dead and buried
 
There's a glory that’s mine for the taking
And I know that my faith has been shaken
But I'm sick to death of all the waiting
 
So please don't take this personally
Cause baby this is personal to me
 
See my passion, see my fire
See this champion, see his desire
And I know that nothing matters to me
No nothing really matters but this victory
See my fire
See my fire
 
My blood, sweat, tears and pain
I won't give up today
[3 times]
 
See my passion, see my fire
See this champion, see his desire
And I know that nothing matters to me
No nothing really matters but this victory
See my fire
See my fire
See my fire
See my fire
