Who Are You Listening To

This is your life and yet somehow
They decide what you're about
You learn your lines and take your cues
But who are you listening to?

You change your clothes and how you speak
You place your hope in what they think
Before you know, there's no more you
Who are you listening to?

Have you noticed how much you fear
All the voices you choose to hear

Who are you listening to?
Who tells you what to do?
Who rules your thoughts at night?
Whose rules define your life?

Oh, you know it's up to you
So who are you listening to?

This is your life, you have no choice
You will rely on someone's voice
And it's all right to question who
Who are you listening to?

Do the words that you believe
Set your soul and spirit free?

There's a quiet voice whispering in your heart
It's been there all along
It believes in you, it will tell the truth
Can't you hear it call?
