I think this might come down to what instrument you used. I played clarinet for several years and could never hear the notes in my head, I just associated them with fingerings. Now, I could tell if a note was in tune, but only by hearing it.
On the other hand, if you’re a vocalist of some kind, you need to be able to sing the correct note based on the sheet music. The closest I ever got was getting the correct key and then basically shifting pitch based on whatever key I’m in.
I never took any music theory classes so I’m mostly just talking from my own personal experience
Maybe I should find a class on it, just for the sake of learning it. Personally, I don’t really see the point other than that. I’m of the mind that you can create good music without knowing jack about it. Just start making sounds that make you feel things. Eventually you’ll make a banger; even if you’re the only one who thinks so.

I never took music theory either… 🤔
