[Intro]
[grand piano melody, soft string pads]

[Verse 1]
[breathy female vocals]
Listen to your heart
[flute counter-melody]
Before the noise, before the name
I was just a person trying to breathe
I learned to walk through judgment's fire
And still believe in me

[Verse 2]
[staccato strings enter]
I've been talked over, talked around
Treated like I wasn't standing there
But every time they wrote me off
I found a louder truth to wear
They drew my limits in the sand
But hearts don't follow lines like that

[Chorus]
[full orchestra enters, cinematic percussion]
Listen to your heart
It knows the road they said you'd never take
Listen to your heart
It beats louder than the world can break
Listen to your heart
When they doubt the person you are
[vocal belt]
Heart will never stray too far

[Verse 3]
[piano and strings continue, woodwinds enter]
I've watched the mighty fall alone
The gentle judged for how they shine
I've seen the famous trapped in cages
Their human selves left behind
They drew my limits in the sand
But hearts don't follow lines like that

[Chorus]
[orchestral swell, heavy percussion]
Listen to your heart
It knows the road they said you'd never take
Listen to your heart
It beats louder than the world can break
Listen to your heart
When they doubt the person you are
[vocal belt]
Heart will never stray too far

[Bridge]
[dramatic brass and strings]
Some are broken by expectations
Some are wounded for who they love
But every story has a heartbeat that's worth defending
Worth rising above

[Chorus]
[climax, crash cymbals]
Listen to your heart
It knows the road they said you'd never take
Listen to your heart
It beats louder than the world can break
Listen to your heart
When they doubt the person you are
[sustained high note]
Heart will never stray too far

[Outro]
[music decrescendo, piano returns]
When the echoes fade away
I'm still standing where my truth began
The moment I learned the only voice I need
Is the heart that knows who I am
[final piano chord, strings fade]
