  3. Roar Katy Perry

  4. 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
 Get ready 'cause I had enough
 I see it all, I see it now

  5. Got the eye of the tiger, the fire
 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 oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!

  6. 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, 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.

  7. Got the eye of the tiger, the fire
 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 oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!

  8. "Your biggest bully becomes yourself. Sometimes you gottafind that inner strength and stand up for yourself. That's why I wrote it, to find my own voice." Katy Perry, discussing the inspiration behind “Roar.”

  9. Mother to Son BY LANGSTON HUGHES Well, son, I'll tell you:Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.It's had tacks in it,And splinters,And boards torn up,And places with no carpet on the floor – Bare.But all the timeI'se been a-climbin' on, And reachin' landin's,And turnin' corners,And sometimes goin' in the dark Where there ain't been no light.So boy, don't you turn back.Don't you set down on the steps'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.Don't you fall now – For I'se still goin', honey,I'se still climbin',And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.

  10. Possible questions: Point of View How are these two texts similar in points of view, both in person and in perspective? Roar: First person, from the writer to someone who has criticized, kept him/her from being successful Mother to Son: first person, from a mother to a son providing advice about life. Tone/Mood Roar: Inspiring, triumphant, resilient Mother to Son: Encouraging, loving How does the imagery/figurative language enhance the mood of each text?
