Risin' up, back on the street
Took 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 happened too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger. It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And his fortune must always be eye of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds still we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive

Risin' up straight to the top Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance. Now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive
