Roar Songtext
von Katy Perry

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 the 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 (yeah)
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, oh, 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 (yeah)
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
