[Verse 1]
She carries oceans underneath a steady face,
A mind like open skies that no one wall can trace,
She feels the room before she's even crossed the door,
Collects what others miss and files it to the core,
The world sees calm, it doesn't see the tide,
All those fathoms running restless deep inside

[PreChorus]
She's built her name on what she quietly earned,
Every recognition offered, quietly returned

[Chorus]
Katherine, you are more than what they see,
A current under ice, a root beneath a tree,
You've carried more than anyone should have to bear,
And still you showed up — still you showed up there

[Verse 2]
She loves like something ancient and unafraid,
Headfirst into the fire, arms full, undelayed,
But she fights her battles sideways, wrapped in care,
Protecting everyone while hiding her own wear,
She gives before she's asked, she stays when others leave,
And rarely lets them see the ache beneath her sleeve

[PreChorus]
She's dreamed in metaphor and spoken it in song,
Her intuition always knew before too long

[Chorus]
Katherine, you are more than what they see,
A current under ice, a root beneath a tree,
You've carried more than anyone should have to bear,
And still you showed up — still you showed up there

[Verse 3]
She came from tangled roots she had to learn to face,
And carved a different room from someone else's space,
The inner critic sharp as glass, the standard set too high,
But every flaw she named became the place she learned to fly,
The wounds she dragged through fire turned to knowing in her hands,
And now she reads the broken world the way no textbook can

[PreChorus]
The cosmos wrote her carefully with ink that doesn't fade,
She's not the sum of what she's lost but everything she's made

[Chorus]
Katherine, you are more than what they see,
A current under ice, a root beneath a tree,
You've carried more than anyone should have to bear,
And still you showed up — still you showed up there

[Bridge]
You don't need the world to finally understand,
The quiet kind of power has always been your hand,
Your worth was never up for a vote or for review,
The stars mapped this out carefully — and they mapped it out in you

[Outro]
Rest now, Katherine, let the proving go,
You were always enough, even when you couldn't know,
The tide comes in, the tide comes in,
And it always finds its home
