[Verse 1]
She wakes before the world decides to rise,
A flame that learned to move before it thinks twice,
There's a boldness in the way she takes the room,
Like the first breath of April cutting through the gloom,
She carries ancient fire wrapped in velvet skin,
A quiet revolution burning deep within

[PreChorus]
But underneath the courage, there's a river running wide,
Full of everything she's ever kept tucked deep inside

[Chorus]
Candy, you were written in the early morning light,
A soul too full of longing to be held by overnight,
The stars didn't make you simple, they made you vast and true,
There's a whole sky worth of living still becoming you

[Verse 2]
She's dreamed in colors language can't contain,
Her mind moves like a poem through the rain,
And love for her is never halfway done,
She dives in whole, she burns like second sun,
She's longed for someone equal to her depth,
Believed in love again with every breath

[PreChorus]
They see the warmth, they miss the tide beneath,
All the things she feels but never quite can speak

[Chorus]
Candy, you were written in the early morning light,
A soul too full of longing to be held by overnight,
The stars didn't make you simple, they made you vast and true,
There's a whole sky worth of living still becoming you

[Verse 3]
She's built things slow with steady, patient hands,
On ground she chose, on principles that stand,
She's worked in silence, wondering if they'd see,
The weight she's carried, all she's chosen to be,
She measured worth by what the outside gave,
But every stone she laid became the path she paved

[PreChorus]
The world may not have handed her the crown she'd earned,
But every quiet lesson was a fire she turned

[Chorus]
Candy, you were written in the early morning light,
A soul too full of longing to be held by overnight,
The stars didn't make you simple, they made you vast and true,
There's a whole sky worth of living still becoming you

[Verse 4]
She's always been the one who breaks the mold,
Who charts the course that hasn't yet been told,
She needs a mission like the body needs the air,
A horizon wide enough to hold her dare,
And somewhere past the proving and the pain,
She finds she was the answer all the same

[PreChorus]
She doesn't need the thunder to confirm the spark,
The light she carries doesn't need to borrow from the dark

[Chorus]
Candy, you were written in the early morning light,
A soul too full of longing to be held by overnight,
The stars didn't make you simple, they made you vast and true,
There's a whole sky worth of living still becoming you

[Bridge]
She is the ram and she is the river and the flame,
She is the quiet knowing that was never put to shame,
The cosmos carved her carefully with ink that doesn't fade,
And every single part of her was purposefully made

[Outro]
Rest now in the knowing you were always enough,
The road ahead is open and the light ahead is soft,
Candy, you are held by something older than the stars,
And the truest home you'll ever find has always been yours
