[Verse 1]
You speak in riddles and you move like wind and tide,
A thousand conversations running quiet deep inside,
You charm the room but keep the real stuff locked away,
A mind that never rests from turning night to day,
You feel too much but show them only what you choose,
There's an ocean underneath the calm you never lose,

[PreChorus]
They see the surface and they think they know the whole,
But there are depths in you that no one's ever told,

[Chorus]
David, you were written by a careful hand,
Every contradiction part of something planned,
The stars don't make mistakes, they just take their time,
You were always whole, every shattered, shining line,

[Verse 2]
You love like shelter, like a door that's always warm,
You build the home in people, keep them safe from every storm,
But asking for the same has always cost you more than words,
The tenderness you carry goes so often unreheard,
You've learned to hold your softness like a secret you protect,
And gave before you knew that you were worthy to collect,

[PreChorus]
But every gentle thing you gave came back as bone and root,
The giving was the garden and the love was always fruit,

[Chorus]
David, you were written by a careful hand,
Every contradiction part of something planned,
The stars don't make mistakes, they just take their time,
You were always whole, every shattered, shining line,

[Verse 3]
There's a wildness in your nature that you've learned to hold in check,
An instinct for the uncharted and a hunger to connect,
You've stood inside the darkest rooms and never looked away,
That isn't recklessness, it's courage in disguise of grace,
The doubt you carry isn't weakness, it's the question mark of deep,
A mind that earns its answers only after losing sleep,

[PreChorus]
You've been your own most ruthless judge since you were young and raw,
But every scar you carry is a testament, not a flaw,

[Chorus]
David, you were written by a careful hand,
Every contradiction part of something planned,
The stars don't make mistakes, they just take their time,
You were always whole, every shattered, shining line,

[Verse 4]
There's a purpose growing quiet in the direction that you face,
Something meant for longer roads and slow and hallowed space,
The world you're building doesn't fit inside a smaller frame,
And recognition finds the ones who never played the game,
You're learning that your worth was never something you must earn,
It was written in the ashes of the things you watched you burn,

[PreChorus]
The compass in your chest has always known the way to go,
You were never lost, you were gathering what you need to grow,

[Chorus]
David, you were written by a careful hand,
Every contradiction part of something planned,
The stars don't make mistakes, they just take their time,
You were always whole, every shattered, shining line,

[Bridge]
The universe held nothing back when it was building you,
Every question that you carry is a door you're walking through,
You don't have to be the finished thing to be enough right now,
The becoming is the blessing, and you're living in it somehow,

[Outro]
So rest inside the truth of all that you already are,
David, you were never broken, you were always meant this far,
The cosmos wrote you carefully, with ink that never fades,
You are guided, you are held, you are enough for all your days,
