[Verse 1]
She carries the weight of a mountain inside her chest,
Steady and sure while she's putting the world to rest,
A mind that moves like a current beneath the ice,
She's thought it through once, she's already thought it twice,
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those fathoms of feeling she keeps tucked inside,

[PreChorus]
But the ocean in her never begs to be the sea,
She just holds what she holds and waits for what will be,

[Chorus]
Oh Michelle, you were written in mountain and wave,
You are patient and fierce and impossibly brave,
The cosmos knows the shape of the path you've been on,
Michelle, you were made for exactly this dawn,

[Verse 2]
She loves like a prayer that doesn't ask for a reply,
Like something ancient and wide spread out under the sky,
She gives before she's asked and feels before she knows,
She sees the good in people buried under all their snow,
And if she's built a wall or two around the tender parts,
That's not a flaw — that's a woman who knows the cost of hearts,

[PreChorus]
But the fire in her rises when she trusts what she can feel,
What she carries isn't burden, it's the evidence she's real,

[Chorus]
Oh Michelle, you were written in mountain and wave,
You are patient and fierce and impossibly brave,
The cosmos knows the shape of the path you've been on,
Michelle, you were made for exactly this dawn,

[Verse 3]
She's been the one who holds the room without a word,
The quiet kind of presence that makes sure every voice is heard,
She's walked through rooms that asked her to be less,
And turned her doubts to compass points and kept on nonetheless,
The world has needed what she carries all along,
Every wound she turned to wisdom, every silence turned to song,

[PreChorus]
She doesn't need to prove herself to anyone alive,
She was always more than enough — she's earned the right to thrive,

[Chorus]
Oh Michelle, you were written in mountain and wave,
You are patient and fierce and impossibly brave,
The cosmos knows the shape of the path you've been on,
Michelle, you were made for exactly this dawn,

[Bridge]
Let the roots hold you steady when the season turns cold,
You are not what you've lost — you are all you have grown,
The stars didn't scatter your light just to leave you alone,
Every thread of who you are leads you home,

[Outro]
Rest now, Michelle, the deep water knows your name,
You were never too much and you never came in vain,
You are guided, you are held, you are enough,
