[Intro: John Cooper]
Ready, set, showtime

[Verse 1: John Cooper]
Heart of a lion is roaring in my soul
Truth is trapped like a fire in my bones

[Pre-Chorus: John Cooper]
Make my mark, no apologies
A day in the life, a revolutionary
Here we go, here we go, here we go

[Chorus: John Cooper]
My life, high life
King over my empire
Nothing’s gonna stop me
It’s show (Show) time (Time)
One chance, one shot
Talk is cheap, so what you got?
World is gonna watch me
It’s show (Show) time (Time)

[Post-Chorus: Jen Ledger & John Cooper]
Tonight’s the night we make history
You gotta fight to take victory
Showtime
Here we go, ready for not
Showtime
Here we go, what you got?

[Verse 2: John Cooper]
Scorpions, snakes and the devil on my heels
(Scorpions, snakes and the devil on my heels)
But I’m gonna get mine, it ain’t no big deal
(I’m gonna get mine, it ain’t no big deal)

[Pre-Chorus: John Cooper]

Got no time for your sympathy
A day in the life, a revolutionary
Here we go, here we go, here we go

[Chorus: John Cooper]
My life, high life
King over my empire
Nothing’s gonna stop me
It’s show (Show) time (Time)
One chance, one shot
Talk is cheap, so what you got?
World is gonna watch me
It’s show (Show) time (Time)

[Post-Chorus: Jen Ledger & John Cooper]
Tonight’s the night we make history
You gotta fight to take victory
Showtime
Here we go, ready for not
Showtime
Here we go, what you got?

[Refrain: John Cooper]
Make my mark, no apologies
A day in the life of revolutionaries

[Chorus: John Cooper]
My life, high life
King over my empire
Show (Show) time (Time)
My life, high life
King over my empire
Nothing’s gonna stop me
It’s show (Show) time (Time)
One chance, one shot
Talk is cheap, so what you got?
World is gonna watch me
It’s show (Show) time (Time)

[Post-Chorus: Jen Ledger & John Cooper]
Tonight’s the night we make history
You gotta fight to take victory
Showtime
Here we go, ready for not
Showtime
Here we go, what you got?
Showtime
Here we go, ready for not
Showtime
Here we go, what you got?
What you got?
