[Verse 1]
I traced my steps through rooms I used to know
Kept every question folded in my coat
A quiet pull beneath the words I planned
Kept turning me toward the life I understand
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't need every answer in my hands
I only need to listen where I stand
[Chorus]
I will follow the feeling that rises inside
Let it open the door I kept locked from the light
If I change, let it be into someone sincere
Closer to what I am, closer to what I feel
I have carried my heart through the doubt and the noise
Now I'm learning to trust its unshaken voice
[Verse 2]
I used to measure worth by borrowed eyes
Building careful walls beneath polite replies
But every breath became a small request
To leave the old disguise and meet myself
[Pre-Chorus]
There is courage in a truth spoken low
There is freedom in the self I choose to show
[Chorus]
I will follow the feeling that rises inside
Let it open the door I kept locked from the light
If I change, let it be into someone sincere
Closer to what I am, closer to what I feel
I have carried my heart through the doubt and the noise
Now I'm learning to trust its unshaken voice
[Bridge]
I am not the map I drew before
I am the step, the breath, the open door
Every tender part I tried to hide
Can become a compass when I let it guide
[Final Chorus]
I will follow the feeling that rises inside
Let it carry me forward with nothing to hide
If I change, let it be with my whole heart near
Closer to what I am, clearer year by year
I have carried my heart through the doubt and the noise
Now I'm learning to trust its unshaken voice
[Outro]
I am here, I am listening
I am becoming what I feel
