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 the ground
You held me down, but I got up
(hey)
Get ready, ′cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now
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
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion
And you′re gonna hear me roar
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, but I got up
(hey!)
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice
You hear that sound
Like thunder, gonna shake the ground
You held me down, but I got up
(hey!)
Get ready, ′cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now
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
Louder, louder than a lion
′Cause I am a champion
And you're gonna hear me roar
You're gonna hear me roar
(You′ll hear me roar)
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
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion
And you′re gonna hear me roar
You're gonna hear me roar
(You′ll hear me roar)
You're gonna hear me roar
