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 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, 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 Already brushing off the dust You hear my voice, your 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, 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 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, oh, roar, oh, 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 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

"Roar" foi lançado em 12 de agosto de 2013 como single principal do álbum PRISM de Katy Perry.
A faixa alcançou o #1 na Billboard Hot 100 em 5 de setembro de 2013 e manteve o topo por duas semanas consecutivas, marcando o oitavo hit número 1 da artista nessa parada.
O videoclipe de "Roar" detém mais de 3,9 bilhões de visualizações no YouTube, sendo o vídeo feminino mais visto na plataforma até a data indicada.
O refrão faz referência à frase “eye of the tiger”, famosa da personagem Rocky Balboa em Rocky III (1982), e foi inspirada pela percepção de Stallone sobre a frase como um lema de coragem e determinação.
Katy Perry explicou que a canção surgiu de sua necessidade de se libertar de emoções contidas e de falar por si mesma, após terminar seu casamento com Russell Brand e após sessões de terapia.
O tema de "Roar" reflete uma declaração de autoempoderamento e a decisão de avançar para a próxima fase da vida de Perry.
