[Verse 1] The ego shouts with thunder, Says I’m never enough. It builds its walls of anger, It feeds on fear and bluff. It tells me I must conquer, That I must stand alone… But the louder it gets, the farther I drift From the place I call my home. [Chorus] But there’s a gentle voice inside, Soft as a whisper, strong as the tide. It calls me back to love, it calls me back to peace, It breaks the chains and brings release. The ego fades, the truth will rise— I follow the gentle voice inside. [Verse 2] The ego loves confusion, It keeps the score of wrongs. It blinds me with illusions, It sings its empty songs. But in the quiet moment, When I lay my weapons down, I hear the Spirit speaking clear, And mercy is the sound. [Chorus] There’s a gentle voice inside, Soft as a whisper, strong as the tide. It calls me back to love, it calls me back to peace, It breaks the chains and brings release. The ego fades, the truth will rise— I follow the gentle voice inside. [Bridge] One voice cries for power, The other leads to grace. One voice leaves me empty, The other fills the space. I’m learning how to listen, I’m learning how to choose, And every time I follow love, I find I cannot lose. [Final Chorus – Lifted] There’s a gentle voice inside, Soft as a whisper, strong as the tide. It calls me back to love, it calls me back to peace, It breaks the chains and brings release. The ego falls, the Spirit guides— I follow the gentle voice inside.
