Roar    (2013)

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
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
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
Oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-ho-oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-ho-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, but I got up
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
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
Oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-ho-oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-ho-oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
You're gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
You'll hear me roar
Oh-ho-oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-ho-oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
You're gonna hear me roar

Roar-or, or-or, roar-or, or-or, roar-or

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
Oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-ho-oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
Yeah
Oh-ho-oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
You're gonna hear me roar
Oh-ho-oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
Oh-ho-oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
You'll hear me roar
Oh-ho-oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
You're gonna hear me roar
