Listen to the Thunder

## [Hook] When your mind says "stay safe" But your heart says "run wild" Listen to the thunder Listen to the thunder calling ## [Verse 1] Got a spreadsheet full of reasons why I shouldn't take this chance All the numbers tell a story 'bout a foolish, risky dance But there's lightning in my belly and a fire in my veins Something deeper than logic running through my blood like rain Jangly guitar echoes what my spirit's trying to say Sometimes the heart sees clearly what the mind can't see in day Crystal visions in the shadows of a choice I have to make Trust the thunder or the whisper, which path will I take? ## [Chorus] Listen to the thunder in your chest When the storm inside won't let you rest Logic builds a wall but love breaks through Trust the heart, it knows what's right for you Don't let fear disguise itself as wisdom Don't let safe become a kind of prison Listen to the thunder, listen to the thunder When your soul is calling out from under ## [Verse 2] Friends all tell me I'm crazy, say I'm throwing it away Security for wild dreams, practical minds would never stray But I've been walking in the shadows of what others think is right And my heart's been growing restless in the middle of the night Tom Petty sang about the waiting, but sometimes waiting's wrong When your inner voice is singing its own rebel song The thunder doesn't reason, it just knows when it's time To break free from all the shoulds and step across the line ## [Chorus] Listen to the thunder in your chest When the storm inside won't let you rest Logic builds a wall but love breaks through Trust the heart, it knows what's right for you Don't let fear disguise itself as wisdom Don't let safe become a kind of prison Listen to the thunder, listen to the thunder When your soul is calling out from under ## [Verse 3] Stevie knew the magic that lives between the worlds Where intuition dances and mystery unfurls She taught me that the heart holds wisdom of its own That sometimes you must wander to find your way back home So I'm standing at the crossroads with my compass spinning wild But the thunder in my chest beats steady as a child's First steps into darkness, trusting what I cannot see The heart's GPS will guide me to where I'm meant to be ## [Bridge] [Building with layered guitars and mystical energy] In the space between the lightning and the rain There's a moment when the world can rearrange [Harmonies building] Every prophet and every poet knew The heart speaks truth when skies are turning blue [Rock crescendo] THUNDER! WONDER! CALLING ME HOME! HEART'S WISDOM! NEVER ALONE! BEYOND REASON! BEYOND FEAR! THE TRUTH I NEED IS ALWAYS HERE! ## [Verse 4] Calculator can't compute the weight of dreams deferred Spreadsheets never captured what my inner voice has heard There's a mathematics of the soul that numbers can't define Where two plus two equals flying if the timing's right and fine Petty's guitar reminds me that the waiting's just a game When your heart knows where it's going, every road leads to the same Destination of the spirit, where logic learns to bow To the thunder that's been calling, and I'm listening now ## [Chorus] Listen to the thunder in your chest When the storm inside won't let you rest Logic builds a wall but love breaks through Trust the heart, it knows what's right for you Don't let fear disguise itself as wisdom Don't let safe become a kind of prison Listen to the thunder, listen to the thunder When your soul is calling out from under ## [Verse 5] Now I'm packing up my reasons, leaving safety on the shelf Trusting in the lightning that illuminates myself The thunder's getting louder as I step into the storm Of following my heart despite conventional form Mystic meets the highway, dreams meet the road Thunder in my heartbeat, carrying the load Of courage over comfort, truth over the lie That logic always knows better than the thunder in my sky ## [Final Hook] When your mind says "stay safe" But your heart says "run wild" Listen to the thunder Listen to the thunder calling (Thunder calling) Trust the magic in your soul (Thunder calling) Let the lightning make you whole ## [Outro] (Fading with rock guitar and ethereal vocals) Thunder in the distance... Thunder in my heart... Sometimes the ending... Is just another start... Listen... listen... listen... To the thunder calling home...
