Song: Eye Of The Tiger

Risin' up, back on the street
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
You must fight just to keep them alive

[Chorus:]
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

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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]


I chose this song as it tells us to carry on, and if we are determined to do something, we will be able to do it even though we are underdogs. It gives me some form encouragement to carry on what I am doing when I am down, especially for my academic results and my CCA canoeing. This song was the theme song for Rocky III, a boxing show. It showed an amateur boxer, training up and then defeating the world heavy weight champion. The inspirational movie was showed to us by our CCA teacher-in-charge as he wanted us to put in hard work and win this year's National School's Canoeing Championships. He told us that the gold trophy would not come easily as we have not won the title for quite some time already. I feel that this song really did inspire the canoe team as we worked harder since we watched the show.
