Country music singer-songwriter Carrie Underwood's working mom advice is what many women all over the world need to hear.
Carrie Underwood‘s working mom reflections are very much needed— especially during the chaos of the holiday season. The country music superstar, entrepreneur, and mother of two recently got real with BuzzFeed.
“I feel like we all have our own challenges and struggles, it’s just different for each person. But we are all stretched. Right? We are all stressed out and always trying to make the best of everything,” Carrie pointed out about all working mothers.
While Carrie is always on the go with her career, she knows she’s being a great role for her sons, 4-year-old Isaiah and 10-month-old Jacob. As fans know, the boys and husband Mike Fisher joined the star on her The Cry Pretty Tour 360.
“I feel like Isaiah and Jacob are going to grow up and hopefully be like, ‘Man, mom was still mom, but she did what she loved as well.’ I feel like that’s the best way to set an example for them.”
Although mom guilt can be incredibly hard to deal with at times, Carrie keeps it real: “As working moms, we have to do the best we can, and cut ourselves some slack.”
“The Champion” Lyrics
I’ll be the last one standing
Two hands in the air, I’m a champion
You’ll be looking up at me when it’s over
I live for the battle, I’m a soldier, yeah
I’m a fighter like Rocky
Put you flat on your back like Ali
Yeah, I’m the greatest, I’m stronger
Paid my dues, can’t lose, Imma own ya, ay
I’ve been working my whole life
And now it’s do or die
I am invincible, unbreakable
Unstoppable, unshakeable
They knock me down, I get up again
I am the champion
You’re gonna know my name
You can’t hurt me now
I can’t feel the pain
I was made for this, yeah, I was born to win
I am the champion
When they write my story
They’re gonna say that I did it for the glory
But don’t think that I did it for the fame, yeah
I did it for the love of the game, yeah
And this is my chance I’m taking
All them old records I’m breaking
All you people watching on the TV
You go ahead and put your bets on me, ay
I’ve been waiting my whole life
To see my name in lights
I am invincible, unbreakable
Unstoppable, unshakeable
They knock me down, I get up again
I am the champion
You’re gonna know my name
You can’t hurt me now
I can’t feel the pain
I was made for this, yeah, I was born to win
I am the champion, oh
Born champion, Luda
The C is for the courage I possess through the drama
H is for the hurt but it’s all for the honor
A is for my attitude working through the patience
Money comes and goes so the M is for motivation
Gotta stay consistent, the P is to persevere
The I is for integrity, innovative career
The O is optimistic, open and never shut
And the N is necessary ’cause I’m never giving up
See they ask me how I did it, I just did it from the heart
Crushing the competition, been doing it from the start
They say that every champion is all about his principles
Carrie
I am invincible, unbreakable
Unstoppable, unshakeable
They knock me down, I get up again
I am the champion
You’re gonna know my name
You can’t hurt me now
I can’t feel the pain
I was made for this, yeah, I was born to win
I am the champion
I’m the champion, yeah
Surpassed all rivals
It’s all about who wants it the most (I am the champion)
Fight for what we believe in
That’s what champions are made of
I am the champion
