Amber Nicole Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To the song here in my heart
A melody I've start
But can't complete
Listen, to the sound from deep within
It's only beginning
To find release
Oh,
the time has come
for my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside and turned
Into your own
all cause you won't
Listen...
Listen,
I am alone at a crossroads
I'm not at home, in my own home
And I tried and tried
To say whats on my mind
You should have known
Oh,
Now I'm done believin you
You don't know what I'm feelin
I'm more than what, you made of me
I followed the voice
you gave to me
But now I gotta find, my own.
You should have listened
There is someone here inside
Someone I'd thought had died
Sooo long ago
Ohh I'm free now and my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside on words
Into your arms
All cause you won't
Listen...
I don't know where I belong
But i'll be movin on
If you don't...
If you won't...
LISTEN!!!...
To the song here in my heart
A melody I've start
But I will complete
Oh,
Now i'm done believin you
You dont know what I'm feelin
I'm more than what, you made of me
I followed the voice, you think you gave to me
But now I gotta find, my own.
my ownn...

Listen,
Pay attention to what I'm about to say
To the song here in my heart
There's a tune deep inside me that needs to come out
A melody I've start
I've begun to create this music
But can't complete
I need your help to finish it
Listen, to the sound from deep within
Hear me out, I have something to express
It's only beginning
This is just the start of what I have to say
To find release
This is how I will finally free myself
Oh, the time has come
The moment to speak up is now
for my dreams to be heard
I want to achieve my goals and for you to acknowledge them
They will not be pushed aside and turned
I won't let anyone else's agenda take precedence over my own ambitions
Into your own
You want to impose your own ideas and desires on me
all cause you won't
It's because you refuse to listen
Listen...
Why won't you hear me?
Listen,
Please, just pay attention
I am alone at a crossroads
I feel lost and uncertain about my future
I'm not at home, in my own home
I'm uncomfortable where I am, I don't feel like I belong
And I tried and tried
I've attempted to communicate time and time again
To say whats on my mind
To express what's really going on inside me
You should have known
You were supposed to understand me better than anyone, but you don't
Now I'm done believin you
I can't trust you anymore, you've let me down
You don't know what I'm feelin
You don't understand my emotions
I'm more than what, you made of me
I won't let you define me, I am my own person
I followed the voice you gave to me
I used to listen to your guidance, but not anymore
But now I gotta find, my own.
I need to discover my own path and make my own decisions
You should have listened
This could have been avoided if you had just taken the time to hear me out
There is someone here inside
I have a part of me that needs to be heard
Someone I'd thought had died
I thought I'd lost this part of me, but it's still there
Sooo long ago
It's been buried deep down for a while now
Ohh I'm free now and my dreams to be heard
I feel liberated now and I want you to acknowledge my aspirations
They will not be pushed aside on words
I won't let what you say diminish my goals
Into your arms
I won't just give in to your control
All cause you won't
Because you refuse to listen
Listen...
Once again, please just hear me out
I don't know where I belong
I'm still trying to figure out my place in the world
But I'll be movin' on
Despite my uncertainty, I know I have to keep going
If you don't...
If you can't bring yourself to understand me
If you won't...
If you refuse to hear me out
LISTEN!!!..
I'm begging you, pay attention to me!
To the song here in my heart
Once again, I'm trying to express this tune inside me
A melody I've start
This is just the beginning of what I have to say
But I will complete
I will finish what I started, even if I have to do it alone
Oh,
Listen to me!
Now I'm done believin' you
I'm fed up with your lack of understanding
You don't know what I'm feelin
You can't comprehend my emotions and experiences
I'm more than what, you made of me
I am my own person, not just the version of me that you wanted me to be
I followed the voice, you think you gave to me
I thought I was doing the right thing by listening to you, but I was wrong
But now I gotta find, my own.
I need to take control of my life and figure things out for myself
my ownn...
I need to trust myself and make my own decisions from now on
