Artist : Katy Perry Lyrics : Roar Album : Prism Released : 2013 Website : https://www.katyperry.com/ 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 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, 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 (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 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 oh oh oh oh oh oh You'll hear me roar 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 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 You're gonna hear me roar 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 You're gonna hear me roar
