Listen Chords by Beyonce

The song is about finding one's own voice and independence after feeling constrained by another. Over chord progressions, the singer expresses that their dreams will no longer be ignored or shaped by someone who refuses to listen to them. In the chorus and bridge, the singer declares they are done believing in the other person and will move on to find their own path if the other person continues not listening.
