[Verse 1]
There's a stillness in the way you hold a room together,
Like you've learned to be the calm inside uncertain weather,
You weigh every word before it leaves your lips,
But the scales you carry cut right at your fingertips,
They see the grace, they don't see the tide,
All those currents running deep inside

[PreChorus]
You've built a home inside your chest for everyone but you,
The ones who need you most still don't know half of what you've been through

[Chorus]
You are rooted where the rivers meet the stone,
You've carried ancient rivers all alone,
The night that made you also made you whole,
There is nothing missing in your soul

[Verse 2]
You move like water, soft until you're not,
Protective of the ones who warm the cold you've fought,
You give before you're asked and ask for almost nothing,
But underneath that tenderness there's something quietly thundering,
A loyalty so deep it almost burns,
A love that holds its ground while everything else turns

[PreChorus]
You've ached to be received the way you give yourself away,
To find a hand that meets you in the dark and chooses to stay

[Chorus]
You are rooted where the rivers meet the stone,
You've carried ancient rivers all alone,
The night that made you also made you whole,
There is nothing missing in your soul

[Verse 3]
Your mind is always somewhere between the stars and the floor,
Making peace with what has been while listening for more,
You've sat with shadows in the rooms nobody visits,
You've named the things that others only whisper,
That kind of knowing doesn't come for free,
It costs a kind of courage no one else can see

[PreChorus]
The world has tried to measure what your worth should look like from outside,
But every scar became a doorway, every wound became a guide

[Chorus]
You are rooted where the rivers meet the stone,
You've carried ancient rivers all alone,
The night that made you also made you whole,
There is nothing missing in your soul

[Verse 4]
You love like something written long before you had the words,
Like a prayer that travels quietly until it's finally heard,
You've questioned your direction at the edge of open roads,
Wondered if the weight you carry counts as making something whole,
It does — the cosmos wrote you carefully and true,
There is no one else alive who moves the way you do

[PreChorus]
Stop asking for permission to take up the space you've earned,
The light inside you wasn't borrowed — it was always yours to burn

[Chorus]
You are rooted where the rivers meet the stone,
You've carried ancient rivers all alone,
The night that made you also made you whole,
There is nothing missing in your soul

[Bridge]
You don't have to prove the depth of what you are,
You were mapped into the dark between each star,
Let the part of you that's tired finally rest,
You were always, always more than enough

[Outro]
The balance you've been chasing lives in you,
Not in what you fix or what you push through,
You are held, you are known, you are free,
You are everything you were always meant to be
