[Verse 1] I used to bite my tongue Fold my edges down Walked on eggshells Soft Just to keep the peace around Kept my colors in my pocket So I wouldn’t shine too loud But the quiet started screaming Now I’m stepping through the crowd [Pre-Chorus] Every scar I tried to cover Spells my name in silver ink I’ve been living in the margins Closer to the edge than I think [Chorus] I got a wild heart Beating like thunder No more hiding in the dark I’m pulling me from under I’m done asking for permission This is my own new religion I got a wild heart Brave and unbroken Every fear I ever had Consider it spoken I’m done shrinking who I am I was born to take this stand [Verse 2] I see the girl in old photos Smiling But her eyes look tired Holding on to every “maybe” Like a match that never fired Now I’m dancing in the mirror In the jeans that make me bold Saying “love You are the story You don’t need to be controlled” [Pre-Chorus] Every “no” I ever swallowed Turns to fuel inside my chest I’ve been training in the shadows Now I’m running with the rest [Chorus] I got a wild heart Beating like thunder No more hiding in the dark I’m pulling me from under I’m done asking for permission This is my own new religion I got a wild heart Brave and unbroken Every fear I ever had Consider it spoken I’m done shrinking who I am I was born to take this stand [Bridge] I’m not afraid of lonely (oh) Lonely taught me how to stay When the world felt heavy I became my own escape Every step A little louder Every breath A quiet vow If I ever start to doubt it I’ll remember this right now [Chorus] I got a wild heart Beating like thunder No more hiding in the dark I’m pulling me from under I’m done asking for permission This is my own new religion I got a wild heart Brave and unbroken Every fear I ever had Consider it spoken I’m done shrinking who I am I was born to take this stand [Outro] Wild heart Wild and steady I’ve been waiting Now I’m ready (oh) Wild heart Can’t be tamed This is me I say my name
