[Verse 1]
He moves like the first breath before the storm,
A fire that decided long before it formed,
Quick mind, sharp tongue, a pioneer's heart,
The kind that starts the race before they hear the start,
He carries whole philosophies inside his chest,
Always chasing something true, rarely stopping to rest

[PreChorus]
But underneath the boldness lives a quieter ache,
A hunger for the solid ground that takes so long to make

[Chorus]
Quintin, you were written in the oldest light,
A lion's heart still learning it was born right,
Every road you've walked has led you somewhere real,
You are more than what you've chased and more than what you feel

[Verse 2]
He loves the way the ocean loves the shore,
All or nothing, ancient, always wanting more,
Takes forever just to let somebody in,
But once he does, he loves them from the deepest end,
He sees the best in people they don't see themselves,
And quietly carries burdens no one else can tell

[PreChorus]
The worth he's built his world on shouldn't need a proof,
He was enough before he ever had to choose

[Chorus]
Quintin, you were written in the oldest light,
A lion's heart still learning it was born right,
Every road you've walked has led you somewhere real,
You are more than what you've chased and more than what you feel

[Verse 3]
He's wrestled with the roots that grew too deep and dark,
Ancestral hands that left their mark upon his heart,
The need to fix, to order, to make meaning clear,
Forgetting he was never broken, only here,
The world needs what he carries and can't give away,
The wisdom in his wandering is here to stay

[PreChorus]
The cosmos didn't scatter him, it set him loose,
There's a compass in his quiet pointing toward the truth

[Chorus]
Quintin, you were written in the oldest light,
A lion's heart still learning it was born right,
Every road you've walked has led you somewhere real,
You are more than what you've chased and more than what you feel

[Bridge]
Let the roots hold you, let the fire lead,
You don't have to prove a single thing,
Every scar became a story worth the telling,
Every depth you've known is how you learned to sing

[Outro]
The stars don't make mistakes, they made you whole,
Quintin, you were always enough to hold,
Rest now in the knowing you are seen,
You are exactly who you were meant to be
