[Verse 1]
She carries the mountain inside her chest,
Steady and composed, but rarely at rest,
Her mind moves like water beneath frozen ground,
She reads every room without making a sound,
The world sees the structure, the poise, and the calm,
They don't see the fire she holds in her palm

[PreChorus]
She's been holding it all since before she could name it,
A depth that runs deeper than words can reclaim it

[Chorus]
Karen, you were written in a language that holds,
Built from ancient patience and October golds,
Every quiet battle was carving you true,
The sky mapped its masterpiece when it made you

[Verse 2]
She loves like a covenant, slow and for real,
Not with the ones who just flicker and feel,
She waits for the kind that will last through the frost,
She guards her heart well, knowing what it has cost,
But underneath all that composure and stone,
Is a devotion so rare, something sacred has grown

[PreChorus]
She gives before asking, she stays when it's hard,
She loves with a patience that leaves a permanent mark

[Chorus]
Karen, you were written in a language that holds,
Built from ancient patience and October golds,
Every quiet battle was carving you true,
The sky mapped its masterpiece when it made you

[Verse 3]
There's a restless flame where her spirit was born,
A moon that moves fast through the night and the storm,
She questions the meaning and searches the deep,
She carries the answers she's too tired to keep,
But the wandering itself is the way she was meant,
Every road she has walked has been heaven-sent

[PreChorus]
She's building a truth that belongs only to her,
A compass that needs no approval to stir

[Chorus]
Karen, you were written in a language that holds,
Built from ancient patience and October golds,
Every quiet battle was carving you true,
The sky mapped its masterpiece when it made you

[Bridge]
You don't have to earn what was yours all along,
The roots you were given already run strong,
Put down the proving, let the real thing remain,
You were enough before the world knew your name

[Outro]
The stars never doubted a single thing,
Let the life you were born for finally begin,
Karen, you're rooted, you're whole, you are true,
The universe spent a long time making you
