Paper Tigers Lyrics by Jaci Velasquez

Paper Tigers

Heart pounds to the sound comin after me.
Step back. what is that? its a mystery.
Is it somethin? probly nothin.
Still I find a way to scare myself
til I remember this all feels familiar,
And I know better.

They are only paper tigers followin me
In the wild imagination of the make believe, oh.
And theres a fighter, a survivor arisin in me.
Im not afraid of paper tigers.

Night brings creepy things, and I hide away.
False fears disappear in the light of day. [light of day]
The sun is risin; Im realizin
The only thing to fear is fear itself.
Now I am certain that my beast of burden
Isnt worth the worry.

They are only paper tigers followin me
In the wild imagination of the make believe, oh.
And theres a fighter, a survivor arisin in me.
Im not afraid of paper tigers. oh [paper paper tigers] oh oh [oh oh]

They are only paper tigers followin me
In the wild imagination of the make believe.
And theres a fighter, a survivor arisin in me.
Im not afraid of paper tigers.

[they are only paper tigers] followin me yeah
[in the wild imagination] oh, theyre only make believe, wow
Theres a fighter, a survivor arisin in me.
Im not afraid, and I wont run away from paper tigers.
Ooo ooo
