[Verse 1]
She carries the earth in her bones and the sea in her chest,
A stillness on the surface that hides an ocean compressed,
She thinks before she speaks but she feels before she thinks,
And no one sees the depth of water right there at the brink,
The roots she keeps returning to are written in her blood,
She built herself from history and called it solid ground

[PreChorus]
They see the calm, they miss the tide,
All that tenderness she carries inside

[Chorus]
Brenda, you are more than the face that the world gets to know,
You're the deep and the dreaming, the ancient and the glow,
Every part of you — the guarded and the wide —
Was written in the stars and they all got it right

[Verse 2]
She loves like a match struck fast against the stone,
Headfirst and wholehearted, terrified of alone,
And the way she gives before she's ever asked to give,
Is not a flaw to fix but the truest way she lives,
She's drawn to what is real, to what is worth the scar,
And every love that changed her only showed her what she are

[PreChorus]
She's rebuilding what was broken into art,
Learning that her worth was never up for someone's chart

[Chorus]
Brenda, you are more than the face that the world gets to know,
You're the deep and the dreaming, the ancient and the glow,
Every part of you — the guarded and the wide —
Was written in the stars and they all got it right

[Verse 3]
There's a voice in her that doubts before the work has begun,
An old wound asking quietly if she deserves the sun,
But the same hands that have steadied rooms have trembled too,
And the strength that others lean on was forged in what she went through,
She doesn't need permission for the life she was made to lead,
The compass has been pointing home — she is all that she needs

[PreChorus]
The searching and the wandering both belong,
Even the uncertainty has made her strong

[Chorus]
Brenda, you are more than the face that the world gets to know,
You're the deep and the dreaming, the ancient and the glow,
Every part of you — the guarded and the wide —
Was written in the stars and they all got it right

[Bridge]
The universe was careful when it shaped the life you hold,
Every quiet act of softness is a story to be told,
You don't have to keep on proving what was never in dispute,
There's a light that lives inside you and it knows its way through

[Outro]
You are guided, you are grounded, you are enough,
Brenda, you were made of the most extraordinary stuff
