[Verse 1]
There's a stillness in the way she holds a room,
Like deep water running silent in the gloom,
She reads between the lines no one dares to write,
Feeling everything at once, keeping most inside,
A mind that never rests at the edge of what's true,
And a heart that carries oceans in everything she does

[PreChorus]
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those currents running ancient and wide

[Chorus]
Rhonda, you were written in the dark and the deep,
In the places that are too real for ordinary sleep,
You are rooted in the earth and dreaming through the sea,
Every contradiction in you was always meant to be

[Verse 2]
She's built her walls with careful steady hands,
Stood like mountain stone on shifting restless sands,
And the love she gives is total, rare, and true,
All or nothing, like a vow she never knew she'd keep,
There's a wound she wears like armor near her heart,
But every scar was always teaching her to start

[PreChorus]
She's sought the world for meaning, wide and far,
And found it burning quietly like a star

[Chorus]
Rhonda, you were written in the dark and the deep,
In the places that are too real for ordinary sleep,
You are rooted in the earth and dreaming through the sea,
Every contradiction in you was always meant to be

[Verse 3]
She doesn't need to prove the fire in her bones,
Or justify the wisdom only solitude has known,
The vision that she carries lives beyond the noise,
And the strength she calls her burden is her truest voice,
She was made to reach for something more than fear,
The universe has mapped a road that brought her here

[PreChorus]
She's done the work in darkness, done it well,
Now watch her step into the light she's earned to tell

[Chorus]
Rhonda, you were written in the dark and the deep,
In the places that are too real for ordinary sleep,
You are rooted in the earth and dreaming through the sea,
Every contradiction in you was always meant to be

[Bridge]
You don't have to hold the whole sky up alone,
Every part of you that aches has always been a home,
The cosmos wrote you carefully with ink that never fades,
You are more than enough, Rhonda, in all your quiet ways

[Outro]
Rooted in the earth, dreaming through the sea,
Everything you are was always meant to be
