[Verse 1]
Betty, you came in with the ram's first breath,
A fighter born before the world knew yet.
You carry everyone's sky but keep your own low,
A flame that burns for home and lets the rest go.
The world sees a woman who walks tall and wide,
But you've always loved strongest from the inside.

[Pre-Chorus]
You gave and gave till giving felt like air,
And learned the hardest lesson — you belong in there.

[Chorus]
Betty, the fire in you was never made to serve them,
It was made to hold the ground when everything is uncertain.
You've always been the one who stayed when others turned and ran,
And the love you built from nothing — that's the whole plan.

[Verse 2]
You've loved like you meant it, fast and without armor,
Opened every door before you checked the weather.
But something came and clouded what you needed to see,
And you kept holding candles for who they'd promised to be.
You learned to build a wall where there should've been a gate,
And smiled at everyone while something hurt and waited.

[Pre-Chorus]
What if the wound that split you wide
Was the thing that let the real world inside?

[Chorus]
Betty, the fire in you was never made to serve them,
It was made to hold the ground when everything is uncertain.
You've always been the one who stayed when others turned and ran,
And the love you built from nothing — that's the whole plan.

[Verse 3]
There's a faith you lost somewhere along the road,
A question that you've carried like a stone below.
Not the kind of doubt you speak at Sunday tables,
The kind that lives in quiet, past the words and labels.
You've been rebuilding something no one else can name,
A belief that's yours alone — and that's not a shame.

[Pre-Chorus]
The searching never stopped because you lost the thread
It stopped for a moment. Then you led

[Chorus]
Betty, the fire in you was never made to serve them,
It was made to hold the ground when everything is uncertain.
You've always been the one who stayed when others turned and ran,
And the love you built from nothing — that's the whole plan.

[Verse 4]
You've been the root, the hearth, the one who held the seam,
But Betty, there's a life still waiting past the dream.
The part of you that's been so patient, quiet, and still —
She's been saving up her fire for a door no one else can fill.
You've earned the right to want things for yourself alone,
To follow the impulse home — the one you've always known.

[Pre-Chorus]
Not for them. Not for the name.
This time, let the fire burn your own way.

[Chorus]
Betty, the fire in you was never made to serve them,
It was made to hold the ground when everything is uncertain.
You've always been the one who stayed when others turned and ran,
And the love you built from nothing — that's the whole plan.

[Bridge]
What's coming isn't soft — but it's yours.
A reckoning with rooms you've locked behind closed doors.
The self you kept in waiting, the one who knew all along —
She's been the quiet underneath the whole song.

[Outro]
Betty, the ram doesn't ask for permission to go.
Neither do you — you just forgot that you know.
