Fame Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Baby, look at me
And tell me what you see
You ain't seen the best of me yet
Give me time, it'll make you forget the rest
I've got more in me
And you can set it free
I can catch the moon in my hands
Don't you know who I am? Remember my name

[Chorus]
I'm gonna live forever
I'm gonna learn how to fly
I feel it coming together
People will see me and cry
I'm gonna make it to heaven
Light up the sky like a flame
Fame, I'm gonna live forever
Baby, remember my name

[Verse 2]
Baby, I'll be tough
Too much is not enough, oh
I can ride your heart 'til it breaks
Ooh, I got what it takes
Remember my name
[Chorus]
I'm gonna live forever
I'm gonna learn how to fly
I, I feel it coming together
People will see me and cry
I'm gonna make it to heaven
Light up the sky like a flame
Fame, I'm gonna live forever
Baby, remember my name

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Jessica Jaunich say about "Fame"?
Genius Answer

This song won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1980! I was inspired by Mree’s version of “Fame” and I remade another version for a girl who asked me to sing her senior solo. I love this song because I feel like it reminds you to be confident in who you are. We are all individually unique just by being ourselves and it’s so important to be confident in that. That’s what this song makes me feel I hope it does that for you too.
