Song Lyrics

I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath
Scared to rock the boat and make a mess

So I sat quietly, agreed politely
I guess that I forgot I had a choice

I let you push me past the breaking point
I stood for nothing, so I fell for everything

You held me down, but I got up (Hey!)
Already brushing off the dust

You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder, gonna shake your ground

You held me down, but I got up
Get ready 'cause I've had enough I see it all, I see it now

I got the eye of the tiger, the fighter
Dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna hear me roar!

Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna hear me roar!

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

You're gonna hear me roar!

Now I'm floating like a butterfly
Stinging like a bee I earned my stripes

I went from zero, to my own hero

You held me down (Oh), but I got up (Oh)
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder, gonna shake the ground

You held me down (Yeah!), but I got up (Oh yeah!)
Get ready 'cause I've had enough (I've had enough!)
I see it all, I see it now

I got the eye of the tiger,

A fighter (Oh yeah!)
Dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion (Ooh!),
and you're gonna hear me roar (Roar!)

Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion (Yeah!), and you're gonna hear me roar!

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (Oh yeah!)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

You're gonna hear me roar!

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (You'll hear me roar!)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

You're gonna hear me roar!

Roar, roar, roar, roar, roar!

(I got the eye of the tiger), a fighter
Dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna hear me roar (Oh louder!)

Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna (hear me roar!)

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (Yeah!) (Ooh yeah!)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (Woah!)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (You'll hear me roar!)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (Oh yeah!)
You're gonna hear me roar!
