Eye Of The Tiger
Chris Meid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
So many times it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
It's the eye of the tiger
Face to face, out in the streets
Hanging tough, staying hungry
They stack the odds, still we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the eye of the tiger

Warner Music Germany COOL
René N
Pfui. Dislike
Eren AO
😂 Warner Music hat Humor. Das Lied hat keine Kraft und keine Seele. Es ist beliebig und austauschbar. Ja, es gibt mir Motivation - mir das Original anzuhören!
ND Schenk
Mit solcher Motivation hat man gegen Ivan Drago keine Chance.
Manfred Kraus
Motiviert? Ja, aber nur wenn ich den Original Song höre. Das hier ist ja wohl nur weich gespülter Mist! Hier sehe ich einen schlappen Rocky vor meinem geistigen Auge auf der Treppe rumhampeln zu dem Song und könnte direkt kotzen gehen. Bei dieser Version geht doch der ganze Sinn des Songs verloren.
