about

Listen! is an anthem for all of us seeking unconditional love and acceptance of who we are. It was inspired by a dear friend whose family doesn't accept him for who he is.

lyrics

Listen!

Can you see me?
Oh, can’t you see!
I wasn’t born for you to live through me
I have got to forge my own way
With my body, mind, and soul, I’ll start today

And I’ll need to
Listen, listen, listen
To that voice within
Until I feel comfortable
Living in my own skin
I’m tired of feeling scared to be free
Cuz you’ll only love me
If I’m who you want me to be

Since I was a child, I knew
Everything you wanted me to do
I tried to make you proud of me
By becoming who you wanted me to be

But now I’ll need to
Listen, listen, listen
To that voice within
Until I feel comfortable
Living in my own skin
I’m tired of feeling scared to be free
Cuz you’ll only love me
If I’m who you want me to be

Since I started living true to me
I’ve become someone who you refuse to see
Somebody, please tell me why it’s so wrong
To want to live strong and proud and true
And un-alone

Now I need you to
Listen, listen, listen
Let my words sink in
You’ve gotta get comfortable
With who I really am
I’m tired of feeling scared to be free
I need you to love me
Unconditionally

When you gonna love me
Unconditionally

I wish you would love me unconditionally
