[Verse 1]
There's a warmth in the way you hold a room together,
Like the steady kind of light that outlasts any weather,
You build your world on what you know is real and true,
And pour yourself in everything you think and say and do,
But underneath that open fire, something quieter stays,
A heart that carries more than anyone could guess some days

[PreChorus]
They see the confidence, the lion's steady glow,
They don't see all the tides you've learned to hold below

[Chorus]
You are rooted and you're rising, Mary, both at once,
The moon inside you holds the earth, the sun refuses none,
Every season you've been through has left you more refined,
You were written in the stars with something rare in mind

[Verse 2]
You love like a lively conversation, curious and wide,
But the deepest of your longing lives where no one gets inside,
You give before you're asked and rarely say what costs you most,
A quiet kind of tenderness that only few come close,
There's a storm between your feelings and the words you find to say,
But that friction is the forge that shapes your wisdom every day

[PreChorus]
You've carried what the silence couldn't hold in place,
And turned it into something only you could grace

[Chorus]
You are rooted and you're rising, Mary, both at once,
The moon inside you holds the earth, the sun refuses none,
Every season you've been through has left you more refined,
You were written in the stars with something rare in mind

[Verse 3]
There's an ache around the question of how much you matter here,
You've worked so hard to prove the worth that's always been so clear,
The world may not have handed you the recognition due,
But every stone you've built upon was chosen just by you,
Your roots ran deep through tangled ground before you found your light,
And what you've grown from all of that could fill the longest night

[PreChorus]
You don't need anyone's permission to stand tall,
The authority you carry needed no approval call

[Chorus]
You are rooted and you're rising, Mary, both at once,
The moon inside you holds the earth, the sun refuses none,
Every season you've been through has left you more refined,
You were written in the stars with something rare in mind

[Verse 4]
You are made to walk toward something you can barely name,
A horizon built on discipline that doesn't look the same,
From the healer to the dreamer to the one who keeps the beat,
Every version of yourself was never incomplete,
The cosmos drew your outline with a careful, knowing hand,
And placed inside you everything you'd ever need to stand

[PreChorus]
Stop shrinking what you carry just to make the room feel right,
The world needs what you hold in you — the full, unguarded light

[Chorus]
You are rooted and you're rising, Mary, both at once,
The moon inside you holds the earth, the sun refuses none,
Every season you've been through has left you more refined,
You were written in the stars with something rare in mind

[Bridge]
You don't have to be perfect, just present and whole,
Every wound that you've carried has deepened your soul,
The tide doesn't answer for all that it moves,
And neither do you — you have nothing to prove

[Outro]
The universe mapped you before you knew its name,
You were never lost, you were always on your way,
Rooted in the earth, held by something wide,
You are enough, exactly as you are inside
