Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Risin' up back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
I went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man with the will to survive
[Verse 2]
And many times it happened too fast
You change your passion for the glory
Don't lose your grip on dreams of the past
You gotta fight to keep them alive
[Verse 3]
It's the eye of the tiger, the dream of the fight
Risin' up to challenge our rival
The last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
Watching us all with the eye of the tiger
[Verse 4]
Face to face out in the night
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds till we take 'em to the street
We kill with the skill to survive
[Verse 5]
Yes, it's the eye of the tiger, it's the dream of the fight
Risin' up to challenge our rival
And it's the last known survivor who stalks in the night
Watching us all with the eye of the tiger
[Verse 6]
Rising up straight to the top
I got the guts, got the glory
I went the distance, not gonna stop
Just a man with the will to survive, yes
[Verse 7]
And it's the eye of the tiger, it's the dream of the fight
Risin' up to challenge our rival
It's the last known survivor stalking prey in the night
Watching us all with the eye of the tiger
[Verse 8]
The eye of the tiger
Yes, he's ready to fight, stalking prey in the night
And he's watching, of the tiger
