Roar
Lyrics of Roar by Katy Perry
Verse
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
Pre-chorus
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
Chorus
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 the champion
And you′re gonna hear me roar
Hook
Ooh, ooh
You′re gonna hear me roar
Verse
Now I'm floating like a butterfly
Stinging like a bee, I earned my stripes
I went from zero to my own hero
Pre-chorus
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, got up)
Get ready ′cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now
Chorus
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
Hook
Ooh, ooh
You're gonna hear me roar (hey)
Ooh (you′ll hear me roar), ooh
You′re gonna hear me roar
Bridge
Roar, roar, roar, roar, roar
Chorus
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
Oh, louder, louder than a lion 'cause I am a champion
And you′re gonna hear me roar
Hook
Ooh (yeah), ooh
You're gonna hear me roar
Ooh (you′ll hear me roar), ooh
You're gonna hear me roar
