[Intro] (Male, almost whispered) I learned my name From other voices... Long before I heard my own. [Verse 1] They dressed my dreams in borrowed colours, Handed me a map already worn. Every road was lined with expectations, Every sunrise chosen by the dawn. I smiled because the world applauded, Walked the path they promised would be gold. Yet somewhere underneath the silence, Lived a child who never had grown old. [Pre-Chorus] (Female joins) Can you hear... The song beneath the noise? Can you hear... The quiet of your voice? [Chorus] (Male & Female Harmony) The name they gave me Was never all of me. Under every borrowed story Waited someone longing to be free. Like rivers finding oceans, Like roots beneath the stone, The longest journey Was simply coming home. [Verse 2] I met strangers wearing perfect faces, Carrying invisible weight. Every heart concealed a thousand questions, Every smile arrived a little late. Then one soul looked beyond appearances, Not the titles, not the victories won. She saw the light beneath the shadows, Like the first warmth of a winter sun. [Bridge] (Female Lead) Take away the borrowed armour, Leave the medals in the rain. Love remembers who we were Before we learned to hide our pain. (Male joins) If tomorrow calls another name, I'll answer still the same... For truth has never needed Anyone's acclaim. [Final Chorus] (Full Harmony) The name they gave me May fade into the years, But the voice I found within me Will outlive every doubt and fear. Like rivers finding oceans, Like stars before the dawn, The heart keeps singing Long after masks are gone. [Outro] (Male & Female, softly) When the silence finally knew me, It spoke the only name That had been waiting... All along.
