Prompt / Lyrics
[Style: Indie Pop] [Tempo: ~76 BPM] [Mood: Reflective, honest, grounded] [Intro (soft, almost spoken)] Yeah… I thought I lost it for a minute… [Verse 1] I miss how I used to sound… Not the songs — just how it felt coming out No second guessing, no overthinking lines… Just saying what was really on my mind Now I’m sitting here rewriting every word Trying to make it perfect, trying to make it heard Trying to be different, trying to stand apart… Somewhere I lost the heart [Pre-Chorus] And I can feel it slipping away… Every time I try to change [Chorus] Heart on my sleeve… yeah it’s still there Buried underneath all this pressure I wear Trying to be someone I’m not supposed to be… That’s not me Heart on my sleeve… I remember now I don’t need to change, I just need to be honest out loud If I lose everything chasing what I believe… At least it’s me [Verse 2] I made a song called “still not me” Didn’t realize how true that’d be Thought evolving meant I had to switch the sound… Now I don’t even feel like me right now Everyone’s trying to be something new So I tried it too — yeah I followed through But the more I chase what I think they want… The more I feel gone [Pre-Chorus] I don’t need to reinvent… I just need to represent [Chorus] Heart on my sleeve… yeah it’s still there Buried underneath all this pressure I wear Trying to be someone I’m not supposed to be… That’s not me Heart on my sleeve… I remember now I don’t need to change, I just need to be honest out loud If I lose everything chasing what I believe… At least it’s me [Bridge (stripped, real)] Maybe I didn’t lose my sound… Maybe I just drowned it out Trying to be what I’m not… Instead of being what I got [Final Chorus (slight lift)] Heart on my sleeve… I found it again Not perfect, but I don’t need to pretend If it’s real, then it’s everything I need… That’s me Heart on my sleeve… no more disguise No more chasing what’s trending outside If they don’t feel it, that’s fine with me… At least I’m free [Outro (soft)] Yeah… That’s me.
