Heartbeat

When the whole world's got the wrong idea
Even though I made myself clear
In the past, I've been misunderstood
And haven't handled it well the way I know that I could

But things are different now, since I stopped caring
I don't worry about what people saying
'Cause there's no way that I can stop them thinking
What they're thinking

I'm just listening to my heartbeat to the tune
I've been singing from the start since I learned the truth
I gotta make my own decisions 'bout what to do
Can't be changing up the rhythm just for you

When it looks like I've lost my way
Even though I'm saying I'm okay
Let me be, there's nothing no one can do
When all odds are stacked against me
My true colours shine through

The fog of deception
That's been clouding your perception
Of who I am, I'm ready for rejection
I'm not begging for acceptance

I'm just listening to my heartbeat to the tune
I've been singing from the start since I learned the truth
I gotta make my own decisions 'bout what to do
Can't be changing up the rhythm just for you

I'm just listening to my heartbeat to the tune
I've been singing from the start since I learned the truth
I gotta make my own decisions 'bout what to do
Can't be changing up the rhythm just for you

I did it just to prove 'em wrong
'Cause they said I'd never make anything of myself
I said I'd do it all along
Just kept on following my heartbeat and nothing else

I'm just listening to my heartbeat to the tune
I've been singing from the start since I learned the truth
I gotta make my own decisions 'bout what to do
Can't be changing up the rhythm just for you

I'm just listening to my heartbeat to the tune
I've been singing from the start since I learned the truth
I gotta make my own decisions 'bout what to do
Can't be changing up the rhythm just for you

I'm just listening to my heartbeat
I'm just following my heartbeat
I'm just listening to my heartbeat
I'm just following my heartbeat (yeah)
