Lyrics Analysis

My song I analyzed was "Eye of the Tiger" by the Survivors. The song was used and is known for the movie series Rocky. The lyric s of the song represents a person who stands up and works really hard in what he does.The first verse is someone who did something but failed the first time. This is repeated over and over again until he succeeds. He trades in passion for glory also he still fights for passion too.

The chorus is pretty much an underdog story when the person fights. Eye of the tiger refers the fierceness of a person in battle. Eye of the tiger is also talks when he stalks his enemy and watching them at night. Also in the chorus there is a fight in which he wins. The person is the underdog in the lyrics.

The other verses is about how he is going to approach the enemy. Out in the heat, the person faces him and staying hungry about his fight. The last verse is when he is defeated with his guts in the toilet. They fought the distance and the better person won the fight. The song fades with “the eye of the tiger”.
