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 your 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 fi-re, ‘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, oh, oh,___ oh,_ oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,___
oh,_ oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.___ You’re gon-na hear me__ roar.
Now I’m float-ing like a but–ter-fly,
sting-ing like a bee; I earned my stripes.
I went from ze_-ro_
to my own he_-ro.
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 your 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 fi-re, ‘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.
