[Verse 1]
A mind like wind that never settles long,
Two voices in one breath, both right, both wrong,
She reads a room before she reads the page,
Curiosity the fire that won't age,
They see her smile and think they know the rest,
But there's a whole cathedral in her chest

[PreChorus]
She gave before she asked, she held when others fell,
Carrying quiet depths that words have failed to tell

[Chorus]
Rita, the stars were careful when they made you,
Written in the language that the heavens gave you,
Every contradiction is a country of its own,
You were never lost, you were always finding home

[Verse 2]
She weighs the cost of every word she'll say,
A heart that measures kindness like a trade,
And those she loves get every tender thing,
She builds them nests from everything she's seen,
But who has built a shelter just for her,
Who has held her when the edges blur

[PreChorus]
The ones who look too quickly only catch the calm outside,
They never see the tides she's learned to turn into her guide

[Chorus]
Rita, the stars were careful when they made you,
Written in the language that the heavens gave you,
Every contradiction is a country of its own,
You were never lost, you were always finding home

[Verse 3]
She's carried what was heavy without blame,
Rebuilt her sense of worth through years of pain,
The world may not have always called her name,
But she has served with grace all the same,
There's wisdom in her that no one conferred,
She earned it in the silence and the word

[PreChorus]
She doesn't need a stage to know her light is real,
The depth of what she carries is the truest thing to feel

[Chorus]
Rita, the stars were careful when they made you,
Written in the language that the heavens gave you,
Every contradiction is a country of its own,
You were never lost, you were always finding home

[Bridge]
The universe has held her through the fractures and the change,
Every chapter she has lived has rearranged to something strange and true,
There's a compass inside her that the years could never break,
She was made for more than enduring — she was made to radiate

[Outro]
The sky remembers everything it wrote,
Every grace, every scar, every generous note,
Rita, you are enough — you always have been,
And the stars have known it since the beginning
