Lyrics
I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath, scared to rock the boat and make a mess.
So I sat qui et ly,
a greed po lite ly.
I guess that I for got I had a choice.
I let you push me past the break ing point.
I stood for noth ing,
so I fell for ev ’ry thing.
You held me down, but I got up.
Al read y brush ing off the dust.
You hear my voice, you hear that sound like thun der gon na shake the ground.
You held me down, but I got up.
Get read y ’cause I’ve had e nough.
I see it all, I see it now.
I got the eye of the ti ger, a fight er, danc ing through the fire.
’Cause I am a cham pion and you’re gon na hear me roar
loud er, loud er than a li on ’cause I am a cham pion and you’re gon na hear me roar.
Oh,
oh.
You’re gon na hear me roar.
Oh,
oh.
You’re gon na hear me roar.
