This Is My Voice

Intro

(mm, yeah)

Oh-oh

Verse 1

I've been quiet when I should've been loud

Folding myself into the back of a crowd

But something's shifting underneath my skin

Like a fire that's been waiting to begin

I used to whisper, now I wanna scream it

Stopped apologizing for the way I mean it

Voice like gravel wrapped in gold

Finally telling the truth I held

Pre-Chorus

And I can feel it rising in my chest

(rising, rising)

Every breath I take, I pass the test

(rising, rising)

Chorus

This is my voice, you're gonna know it anywhere

Rough around the edges but I don't care

Shaking like thunder when I hold a note

This is the sound of everything I wrote

(oh, oh-oh)

This is my voice, you're gonna know it anywhere

(oh, oh-oh)

Rough around the edges but I don't care

Verse 2

Used to soften every word that I said

Now I let it shake, let it bend instead

There's a crack in my voice where the truth gets through

Funny how the broken parts are the realest view

I'm not polished, I'm not perfectly clean

I'm the static and the signal in between

You can try to copy, you can try to chase

But this kind of sound, it's got my face

Pre-Chorus

And I can feel it rising in my chest

(rising, rising)

Every breath I take, I pass the test

(rising, rising)

Chorus

This is my voice, you're gonna know it anywhere

Rough around the edges but I don't care

Shaking like thunder when I hold a note

This is the sound of everything I wrote

(oh, oh-oh)

This is my voice, you're gonna know it anywhere

(oh, oh-oh)

Rough around the edges but I don't care

Bridge

Let it crack

(let it crack)

Let it shake

(let it shake)

Every flaw is a fingerprint

I'm not asking you to relate

Chorus

This is my voice, you're gonna know it anywhere

Rough around the edges but I don't care

Shaking like thunder when I hold a note

This is the sound of everything I wrote

(oh, oh-oh)

This is my voice, you're gonna know it anywhere

(oh, oh-oh)

Rough around the edges but I don't care

Outro

(mm, yeah)

You're gonna know it anywhere

Oh-oh
