[Verse 1]
I packed my doubt in a black trash bag
Left it by the curb in the rain
You said, “That road looks wrong”
But my chest kept saying your name
I wore the scar like a map
Every wrong turn taught me drive
Sometimes the door that shakes
Is the one that keeps you alive
[Pre-Chorus]
I know it stings right now
I know it don’t look sweet
But I can hear my future
Pounding under my feet
[M] I won’t turn back
[F] I won’t turn back
[M] Even if it hurts
[F] Even if it hurts
[Chorus]
Follow my heart
Follow my heart
Even when it breaks
Even when it burns
Take the hard road
Take the hard road
What feels wrong today
Will save me in the end
[M] We rise
[F] We rise
[Both] We rise again
[Both] We rise again
[Verse 2]
I watched that old fear fade
In the rearview, small and pale
Every “not yet” got loud
Till I learned to trust the trail
There’s no trophy for the easy
No gold in always safe
I’d rather lose a little now
Than live a life I hate
[Pre-Chorus]
I know it stings right now
I know it don’t look sweet
But I can hear my future
Pounding under my feet
[M] I won’t turn back
[F] I won’t turn back
[M] Even if it hurts
[F] Even if it hurts
[Chorus]
Follow my heart
Follow my heart
Even when it breaks
Even when it burns
Take the hard road
Take the hard road
What feels wrong today
Will save me in the end
[M] We rise
[F] We rise
[Both] We rise again
[Both] We rise again
[Bridge]
Let it hurt
Let it shake me
Let the old me fall
I can see it now
I can see it now
The dawn beyond the wall
[M] If I gotta break
[F] If I gotta break
[M] To become the real me
[F] To become the real me
[Final Chorus]
Follow my heart
Follow my heart
Even when it breaks
Even when it burns
Take the hard road
Take the hard road
What feels wrong today
Will save me in the end
[M] We rise
[F] We rise
[Both] We rise again
[Both] We rise again
Follow my heart
Follow my heart
I was built for this
I was built for this
