Lyrics #3903
Rhythm of My Own
A funky and confident R&B anthem about authentic self-expression and the empowering defiance of dancing to one's own beat.
[Intro]
(Joey) Uh-huh... feel that beat?
(Mahira) Yeah, it's ours.
(River) Let's go!
[Verse 1]
(Freya) Tried to fit me in their box, told me how to move
Said 'be quiet, follow rules', somethin' I couldn't prove.
(Mrya) Felt the pressure to conform, to dim my inner flame
But my spirit kept on fightin', screamin' out my name.
[Pre-Chorus]
(River) Heard a whisper in the silence, a drummin' deep inside
(Joey) Knew it was time to break free, nowhere left to hide.
[Chorus]
(All, strong, funky groove, layered vocals, adlibs)
Oh, I'm dancin' to the rhythm of my own, yeah, my very own (Mahira: My own beat!)
Every step a declaration, feelin' so strong, never alone (Freya: Never alone!)
Shake it off, shake it off, every judgment, every doubt (Joey: Shake it off!)
This ain't just a sound, baby, it's my heart screamin' out! (River: Screamin' out loud!)
Yeah, this freedom's flowin', everywhere we're goin', we own this groove! (Mrya: We own it, yeah!)
[Post-Chorus]
(All) Own that groove!
(Mahira) My own rhythm!
(Joey) Feel it!
[Verse 2]
(Mahira) Used to edit all my thoughts, censor every word
Afraid of bein' too much, afraid of bein' heard.
(Joey) But now I'm singin' out my truth, in a symphony so clear
Every note authentic, banishin' all fear.
[Pre-Chorus]
(Mrya) That spark turned to a bonfire, burnin' bright within my core
(Freya) Knew it was time to step out, couldn't take it anymore.
[Chorus]
(All, strong, funky groove, layered vocals, adlibs)
Oh, I'm dancin' to the rhythm of my own, yeah, my very own (River: My own beat!)
Every step a declaration, feelin' so strong, never alone (Joey: Never alone!)
Shake it off, shake it off, every judgment, every doubt (Mahira: Shake it off!)
This ain't just a sound, baby, it's my heart screamin' out! (Freya: Screamin' out loud!)
Yeah, this freedom's flowin', everywhere we're goin', we own this groove! (Mrya: We own it, yeah!)
[Bridge]
(River) They tried to mute our voices, tried to dim our light
(Mahira) But we found each other, shinin' ever so bright
(Mrya) Every sway, every spin, a story we embrace
(Freya) Livin' out loud, leavin' no trace of fear in this sacred space
(Joey) (Harmony with all) This is our anthem, pumpin' through our veins, strong and true!
[Chorus]
(All, full power, more adlibs)
Oh, I'm dancin' to the rhythm of my own, yeah, my very own (Freya: My own beat, yeah!)
Every step a declaration, feelin' so strong, never alone (Mrya: Never alone!)
Shake it off, shake it off, every judgment, every doubt (Joey: Shake it off!)
This ain't just a sound, baby, it's my heart screamin' out! (River: Screamin' out loud!)
Yeah, this freedom's flowin', everywhere we're goin', we own this groove! (Mahira: We own it, yeah!)
[Outro]
(All, fading with adlibs)
My own rhythm... (Joey: Uh-huh)
Own that groove... (River: So good, so good)
(Mahira) Freedom flowin'... (Freya: All over!)
(Mrya) Never stop the beat... (All: Fade out)
(Joey) Uh-huh... feel that beat?
(Mahira) Yeah, it's ours.
(River) Let's go!
