Everybodyโs got advice Everybodyโs got a feed Everybodyโs got a version Of who youโre supposed to be Too many voices talking Too many windows open Till your own thoughts start sounding Like somebody else wrote them They say play it safe Stay in your lane Be easier to understand Be less strange But every time you shrink yourself To fit what people want You trade something real For something that youโre not Turn it up That sound inside your chest No machine Knows you best Donโt let the noise get louder Than the voice in your head Donโt hand the wheel away Just because somebody said The crowd changes daily Your truth stays home You can hear ten thousand people Still walk your own road Opinions move in waves Todayโs right becomes old news Everybody acts certain Till certainty comes loose You donโt need the comments You donโt need permission You were never built For audience decisions Mute the pressure Kill the static Stop performing Automatic If nobody claps Would you still sing Thatโs where your answer lives Donโt let the noise get louder Than the fire underneath You donโt owe your future To somebody elseโs beliefs The room gets louder You get clear And through all the shouting Your own voice appears Everybodyโs talking But I know what I hear
