[Verse 1]
There's a still water surface that nobody reads
A current beneath running deeper than needs
You've carried whole oceans inside you alone
Built something from nothing and called it your home
The calm that they see is just one of your layers
Behind it — a mind full of questions and prayers

[PreChorus]
You've felt like your words disappear in the air
But every last syllable matters — they're there

[Chorus]
Ann, you were written in depth and in fire
A soul that was forged to go higher and higher
The tides and the stars had a hand in your making
You're whole — not a thing about you needs remaking

[Verse 2]
You love like the horizon — expansive and wide
You need room to breathe and the truth by your side
You've doubted the feelings that live in your chest
Convinced yourself others somehow know best
But that restless brave heart with its fire and its ache
Is the very most precious thing that you make

[PreChorus]
You've walked through the dark with no map in your hand
And built yourself up where you couldn't quite stand

[Chorus]
Ann, you were written in depth and in fire
A soul that was forged to go higher and higher
The tides and the stars had a hand in your making
You're whole — not a thing about you needs remaking

[Verse 3]
You've poured yourself out for a world full of need
And quietly bled so that others could breathe
That tenderness — people don't see how it costs
How much of yourself in the giving gets lost
But you are the light that returns after rain
The wisdom that only comes through that pain

[PreChorus]
The universe mapped every scar into grace
And chose you — deliberately — for this place

[Chorus]
Ann, you were written in depth and in fire
A soul that was forged to go higher and higher
The tides and the stars had a hand in your making
You're whole — not a thing about you needs remaking

[Bridge]
You don't have to earn what was always your right
You don't have to shrink to make room for the light
What lives in the deep of you — let it be seen
You are everything you've ever needed to be

[Outro]
The cosmos wrote you carefully, with ink that endures
Every wave, every wound, every wondering — yours
Rest now in the knowing — you've always been enough
Ann, you were made of the most extraordinary stuff
