[Verse 1]
Still water running deeper than the eye can trace,
A mind that reads the room before you take your place,
You carry oceans inward where the tides don't show,
Rooted like the earth itself, steady in the undertow,
They see the calm, they never see the current underneath,
The way you hold the whole world while you barely breathe,

[PreChorus]
You've been diving in the dark to bring the light back up,
Every time you've broken open, you've refused to stop,

[Chorus]
Rise, Monica, the pulse is yours tonight,
Every scar you carry glows like its own light,
Rise, Monica, let the rhythm pull you free,
You were written by the stars and they don't make mistakes, believe,

[Verse 2]
You love like something ancient that was forged before the fall,
Bold enough to leap first, brave enough to give your all,
You don't hide the way you feel it, that's a kind of holy flame,
And every time you loved again you showed that you're not tame,
You show up for the ones you care for, hands before they ask,
Your tenderness is armor, not a weakness, not a mask,

[PreChorus]
You've built cathedrals out of rubble in the in-between,
The deepest kind of courage is the kind that's rarely seen,

[Chorus]
Rise, Monica, the pulse is yours tonight,
Every scar you carry glows like its own light,
Rise, Monica, let the rhythm pull you free,
You were written by the stars and they don't make mistakes, believe,

[Verse 3]
There's a place inside the silence where you go to question worth,
Wondering if being is enough, if you've done enough on earth,
That voice that says do more, be more, prove it to the room,
It doesn't know your value doesn't live in what you do,
You are the whole before the mending, not the work it took,
The one who heals by simply staying — that deserves a second look,

[PreChorus]
The cosmos didn't carve you out of stone to leave you here alone,
Every path you've walked through shadow was the path that led you home,

[Chorus]
Rise, Monica, the pulse is yours tonight,
Every scar you carry glows like its own light,
Rise, Monica, let the rhythm pull you free,
You were written by the stars and they don't make mistakes, believe,

[Verse 4]
You've always sensed what others miss, the undercurrent in the room,
That intuition isn't noise — it's how you always find the truth,
You dream in depths that daylight can't contain or fully hold,
And every quiet revolution in you burns like solid gold,
The world needs what you carry in the places you don't show,
You are more than enough exactly as you go,

[PreChorus]
Let the beat become your anchor and the melody your proof,
You don't have to earn the ground beneath you — it was always yours to use,

[Chorus]
Rise, Monica, the pulse is yours tonight,
Every scar you carry glows like its own light,
Rise, Monica, let the rhythm pull you free,
You were written by the stars and they don't make mistakes, believe,

[Bridge]
You are rooted and you're radiant and you don't have to choose,
Every fire that has found you forged a version hard to lose,
The universe did not forget you when it mapped the dark and light,
You were made for more than proving — you were made to come alive,

[Outro]
Let it rise, let it move, let it carry all of you,
Every piece you tried to hide is part of something true,
You are held, you are whole, you are finally, endlessly enough,
