[Verse 1]
A mind that moves like wind before the rain,
Two thoughts at once, a double-edged refrain,
You see the world in color, wide and fast,
You're always chasing something built to last,
Beneath the spark, a hunger runs so deep,
A soul that gathers more than it can keep,

[PreChorus]
You've held yourself to standards carved in stone,
Built every wall yourself and called it home,

[Chorus]
Patti, you are more than what they see,
A lion heart wrapped up in Mercury,
The stars wrote you in fire, ink, and grace,
The universe put something rare in place,

[Verse 2]
You love like something hidden from the light,
A warmth you give in secret, deep at night,
You pour yourself in quietly, no applause,
You've been the steady hand without a cause,
And all that time you wondered if it showed,
It always did — in every seed you sowed,

[PreChorus]
The tension living somewhere in your chest,
Between the need for order and the rest,

[Chorus]
Patti, you are more than what they see,
A lion heart wrapped up in Mercury,
The stars wrote you in fire, ink, and grace,
The universe put something rare in place,

[Verse 3]
You've worked so hard for worth that should be free,
Climbed every mountain quietly, silently,
The wound that said you had to earn your place,
Was never true — it just took time and space,
Your brilliance isn't proved by what you've done,
It's in the light you carry like a sun,

[PreChorus]
You don't need one more reason to belong,
Everything you've questioned made you strong,

[Chorus]
Patti, you are more than what they see,
A lion heart wrapped up in Mercury,
The stars wrote you in fire, ink, and grace,
The universe put something rare in place,

[Bridge]
You were never lost, just learning how to land,
Every version of you part of something grand,
Let the tides inside you finally find the shore,
You were whole before and you are whole once more,

[Outro]
The cosmos mapped a path that's only yours,
Rest now in the knowing — nothing more to prove,
Patti, you were written in the stars.
