What's My Name Muhammad Ali

What's my name (Muhammad Ali) By Michelle Morris 11/04/2021 I chose my own name and became a legend; I refused to play your game and you tried to break me; You lost because I rose and became the greatest; I am a hero to the world - made it better regardless. What's my name? Can you say it? What's my name? I am the greatest! What's my name? Don't have to fake it! What's my name? I am the favourite! I float like a butterfly and sting like a bee; I am a boxer and a poet - I am the best a man can be! I am a leader, I keep rising; I am courage and integrity surviving; I am the hope of future leaders and Create a legacy of believers. What's my name? Can you say it? What's my name? I am the greatest! What's my name? Don't have to fake it! What's my name? I am the favourite! I am the best of my sport, The greatest comeback, proven worth; I chose to be Muhammad Ali, Avoided war and political evil; I became a legend in my time, Stand up for family and home, what's mine; No matter what, they'll remember me, For my courage helped set men free. What's my name? Can you say it? What's my name? I am the greatest! What's my name? Don't have to fake it! What's my name? I am the favourite! Don't count the days, make the days count - One of my mottos that I spoke about; Philanthropist and courageous warrior, Civil rights and all freedom honoured; I embraced all that I could be and Lived a life as a man so free; Moved mountains politically and Left a legacy that's pure and real. What's my name? Can you say it? What's my name? I am the greatest! What's my name? Don't have to fake it! What's my name? I am the favourite! © Michelle Morris, 2021
