### \[Intro – Female, whispered over lonely piano\] What if God looks down and turns away? What if heaven never wanted me to stay? What if everything I love is a mistake? Then why's my heart still dancing when it breaks? ### \[Verse 1 – Female, soulful and vulnerable\] I planted flowers where the lightning struck, Built a little heaven out of broken luck. The world keeps spinning like a cruel roulette, But I ain't finished falling in love with it yet. I've heard the silence where the answers should be, I've begged the stars to tell me what's wrong with me. But morning comes in colors I can't explain, And I still find a rainbow in the pouring rain. ### \[Pre-Chorus – Rising violins\] Maybe I'm a sinner, maybe I'm a saint, Maybe I'm a masterpiece beneath the peeling paint. If heaven doesn't want me, I won't beg to stay, I'll find a thousand reasons to be happy anyway! ### \[Chorus – Huge emotional EDM drop\] Maybe God hates me! Maybe God hates my world! Maybe every prayer I've ever prayed went unheard. But I'm dancing in the darkness, laughing through the pain, Making little constellations out of hurricanes! Oh, I'm happy! I'm happy anyway! Even if the angels turn their golden eyes away. Let the heavens judge me, let the planets fall, I'm in love with being alive through it all! Oh-oh-oh, happy anyway! Oh-oh-oh, I'm staying for today! ### \[Verse 2 – Male, melodic rap over deep bass\] Look— Had a conversation with the ceiling last night, Asked why every blessing came disguised as a fight. Why the good die young, why the bad get crowned, Why the sweetest little dreams get buried underground. Then I heard somebody laughing on the street outside, Saw a flower growing where the concrete died. Got a broken little heart with a beautiful beat, And a whole lot of reasons not to accept defeat. I don't know if the universe is friend or foe, Don't know where the souls of the broken go. But I know that the music makes my heartbeat race, And I know that there's sunshine on my imperfect face. So if God's got a problem with the world that I see, He can keep His explanation—I'll keep being me! ### \[Chorus – Female and male harmonizing\] Maybe God hates me! Maybe God hates my world! Maybe I'm the wrong kind of diamond, wrong kind of pearl. But I'm dancing in the darkness, laughing through the rain, Building little castles out of everything that changed! Oh, I'm happy! I'm happy anyway! Even when tomorrow seems a million miles away. Let the heavens question everything I've done, They can't take away the warmth I feel beneath the sun! ### \[Bridge – Piano only, female nearly crying\] And maybe I've been wrong about the sky... Maybe love was never something I could buy. Maybe silence doesn't mean that I'm alone, Maybe earth was always meant to feel like home. And if I never hear a voice from up above, I'll still give this crazy, broken world my love. \[Children's choir enters softly\] We don't need permission to shine... We don't need permission to smile... Even when the stars refuse to align... We're gonna make this life worthwhile... ### \[Final Chorus – Full orchestra, choir, enormous bass drop\] MAYBE GOD HATES ME! MAYBE GOD HATES MY WORLD! BUT LOOK AT ALL THE BEAUTY IN THIS BEAUTIFUL WORLD! I'M DANCING WITH MY DEMONS! I'M SINGING WITH MY SCARS! I'M MAKING MY OWN HEAVEN UNDERNEATH A BILLION STARS! I'M HAPPY! I'M HAPPY ANYWAY! I DON'T NEED THE UNIVERSE TO TELL ME I'M OKAY! LET THE THUNDER ROLL! LET THE HEAVENS SHAKE! I'M GONNA LOVE THIS LIFE WITH EVERY BREATH I TAKE! ### \[Outro – Soft piano, fading choir\] Maybe God loves me... Maybe He doesn't... Maybe I'll never know. \[Whispered\] But I love this world. And I'm happy anyway.
