"The Edge....there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over."

I think this is my chance. My Chance to move away.

I was at the age that I could move away.

Today was Friday so that meant it was open mic at the café.

Everbody would go there because they love to hear me sing.

It was always the regular costumers that would come and double the tips for me.

Once I perform my last song, I'll grab my tip and paycheck money and then leave.

"All I'm singing is three songs and then I'm leaving okay" I said to Marie.

Marie is my boss and the owner of this café. She's nice to me when she wants to or is in a good mood.

So I started with my song called "Roar".

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, your hear that sound

Like thunder, gonna shake your 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

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, you hear that sound

Like thunder, gonna shake your 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
