[Verse 1]
I learned how to speak when nobody listened
Said my truth to walls, called it persistence
Every scar I carry learned my tone
Pain don’t whisper when you’re grown
I sang in rooms that never clapped
Left pieces of me in every map
[Pre-Chorus]
They ignored me when I was breaking
Now they hear me when I’m steady
[Chorus] (HOOK — simple, repeatable)
Everybody knows my voice
Even when they don’t know my name
I didn’t scream, I made a choice
I stayed when silence felt the same
If you’ve ever felt unseen
Then you know this noise
Everybody knows my voice
[Verse 2]
I wasn’t loud, I was consistent
Truth sounds different when it’s lived in
I didn’t chase what fades fast
I built something meant to last
Now my echoes walk ahead
Say the words I never said
[Pre-Chorus]
They don’t ask where I came from
They just feel it when I hum
[Chorus]
Everybody knows my voice
Even when they don’t know my name
I didn’t scream, I made a choice
I stayed when silence felt the same
If you’ve ever felt unseen
Then you know this noise
Everybody knows my voice
[Bridge] (drop instruments, half-time)
I didn’t rise to be famous
I rose so I wouldn’t disappear
[Final Chorus] (bigger, crowd-ready)
Everybody knows my voice
From the dark to the light
I didn’t win, I survived
And I sing it every night
If you’ve ever felt alone
But still made a choice
You already know my voice
[Outro]
No stage
No crowd
Still heard
