[Verse 1]
There's a stillness on the surface, a current underneath,
A mind that maps the cosmos while the whole world's still asleep,
You carry quiet fires that the naked eye can't trace,
An ocean behind eyelids and a universe for a face,
You've given more than asked for, loved in ways no one could name,
And held so much together while you burned inside the flame,

[PreChorus]
They see the calm, they never see the tide,
All that depth, all that wisdom living just inside,

[Chorus]
Shawna, you were written in a language rare and old,
Every scar a sentence in the story being told,
You are rooted, you are reaching, you are steady and enough,
Shawna, you were made of all that gentle, iron stuff,

[Verse 2]
You love like something ancient, like a prayer that has no end,
Like the kind of grace that lingers long after the breaking bends,
You've walked through shadows willingly to find the light below,
There's a hunger for the real in you that surface talk won't know,
You've felt the weight of worlds that weren't even yours to bear,
And still you turned and offered up your hands beyond compare,

[PreChorus]
The truth in you runs deeper than the words you choose to speak,
That silence holds a power most will spend a lifetime to seek,

[Chorus]
Shawna, you were written in a language rare and old,
Every scar a sentence in the story being told,
You are rooted, you are reaching, you are steady and enough,
Shawna, you were made of all that gentle, iron stuff,

[Verse 3]
You've built your dreams on bedrock with a slow and certain hand,
Every hill you've climbed has left you wiser where you stand,
The world has tried to box you in a shape that wasn't yours,
But something in you always finds the wider open doors,
You think in colors others don't see painted on the sky,
A visionary restlessness that never asks you why,

[PreChorus]
You don't need their permission to take up the space you own,
Every seed of truth you've tended, you have already grown,

[Chorus]
Shawna, you were written in a language rare and old,
Every scar a sentence in the story being told,
You are rooted, you are reaching, you are steady and enough,
Shawna, you were made of all that gentle, iron stuff,

[Verse 4]
There's a compass in your marrow pointing toward the real and true,
Toward the life that keeps on calling out the fullest part of you,
You've descended into darkness and returned with something whole,
There's a quiet kind of healing that pours out from your soul,
You belong to something larger than the doubt you've carried long,
The universe wrote you carefully, and it did not write you wrong,

[PreChorus]
The stars don't make mistakes the way you've feared they might have done,
What they placed inside you was already enough to come undone,

[Bridge]
You don't have to earn the right to rest inside your own skin,
Every door you think is closing is the light just breaking in,
The world needs what you carry, so don't put your lantern down,
You were never lost, not even once — you were being found,

[Outro]
Shawna, the moon still rises on the things you haven't named,
You were written whole and holy — and you are not to blame,
The cosmos keeps your history in ink that never fades,
And you, exactly as you are, were made for these bright days,
