If I stand or if I fall, I'm still giving it my all
I'm blood, sweat, tears believer, I'm the man in the arena

It's not the critic who counts
Who shoots their mouth when the strong man stumbles
It's not about all the noise or the fingers that point
At the man with the ball when he fumbles
You say it's too tough, tell you to give it up
Been showing enough that you'll never make the cut
Get out of the way of those making the plays
When they say get ready to rumble
Yeah, get ready to rumble

So let them talk from the cheap seats
We're the ones making hearts beat
If you're winning or losing
Raise your hand, raise your hand
If I stand or if I fall, I'm still giving it my all
I'm blood, sweat, tears believer, I'm the man in the arena
I'm blood, sweat, tears believer, I'm the man in the arena

Everything they said trying to get in your head use it all to fuel your hunger
In the sweat in your eyes but you're still gonna rise
Getting back up only makes you stronger
Dedication, determination, put it all together it's a deadly combination
Feel the ground shake, feel the earthquake
Following the footsteps of the giant's way
Oh, the giant's way, yeah (let's go)

So let them talk from the cheap seats
We're the ones making hearts beat
If you're winning or losing
Raise your hand, raise your hand
If I stand or if I fall, I'm still giving it my all
I'm blood, sweat, tears believer, I'm the man in the arena
I'm blood, sweat, tears believer, I'm the man in the arena
Ooh, man in the arena, arena

The critics they may laugh, from the comfort of their couch
And the horse that you rode, but they re mistaken
If you got back up to fight, the glory is waiting
For the ones that step inside the ring

So let them talk from the cheap seats
We're the ones making hearts beat
If you're winning or losing
Raise your hand, raise your hand
If I stand or if I fall, I'm still giving it my all
I'm blood, sweat, tears believer, I'm the man in the arena
I'm blood, sweat, tears believer, I'm the man in the arena
