“You held me down, but I got up
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,
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,
You’re gonna hear me roar.”

Roar, written by Katy Perry, Lukasz Gottwald, Max Martin, Bonnie McKee, and Henry Walter
