[Verse] Born under the watchful eyes, Sunday prayers every night Mama said, “Son, keep the faith, walk the path, live it right” But my heart beats to a different drum, can’t ignore the way I feel Love’s a language that I speak, and it’s breaking every seal [Pre-Chorus] Whispers in the dark won’t shake me down This love I found won’t wear no crown I’m standing tall, no turning round [Chorus] I choose love, over all the rules they say I choose love, come what may No chains on my heart, no shadows in my way I choose love, every single day [Verse] They say a preacher’s son should preach the line, hold the creed so pure and fine But I’m painting life in colors bright, with a love that won’t decline Family ties strong but I’m stronger still, breaking free to find my will In this rhythm, in this beat, love’s the truth that I reveal [Pre-Chorus] Whispers in the dark won’t shake me down This love I found won’t wear no crown I’m standing tall, no turning round [Chorus] I choose love, over all the rules they say I choose love, come what may No chains on my heart, no shadows in my way I choose love, every single day [Bridge] No sorrow, no shame, just a flame that’s bright I’m walking my own road, guided by this light In every breath, in every song, love’s the reason I belong No fear, no doubt, I’m standing proud and strong [Chorus] I choose love, over all the rules they say I choose love, come what may No chains on my heart, no shadows in my way I choose love, every single day [Outro] I choose love, yeah, every single day I choose love, yeah, come what may I choose love, can’t take that away I choose love, I choose love today
