Roar - Katy Perry (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 the ground You held me down, but I got up (hey) Get ready \u0027cause I\u0027ve had enough I see it all, I see it now I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter Dancing through the fire \u0027Cause I am a champion, and you\u0027re gonna hear me roar Louder, louder than a lion \u0027Cause I am a champion, and you\u0027re gonna hear me roar Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You\u0027re gonna hear me roar Now I\u0027m floatin\u0027 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 \u0027cause I\u0027ve had enough I see it all, I see it now I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter Dancing through the fire \u0027Cause I am a champion, and you\u0027re gonna hear me roar Louder, louder than a lion \u0027Cause I am a champion, and you\u0027re gonna hear me roar Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You\u0027re gonna hear me roar Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (you\u0027ll hear me roar) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You\u0027re gonna hear me roar Roar, roar, roar, roar, roar I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter Dancing through the fire \u0027Cause I am a champion, and you\u0027re gonna hear me roar Louder, louder than a lion \u0027Cause I am a champion, and you\u0027re gonna hear me roar Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (yeah) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You\u0027re gonna hear me roar Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (you\u0027ll hear me roar) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You\u0027re gonna hear me roar
