[Verse 1]
There's a lion in the way you walk into a room,
And a ocean underneath that no one's mapped or moved,
You hold your cards so close, you've memorized each one,
A mind that cuts to marrow before the words have come,
You read between the lines before the lines are drawn,
The quietest one at the table, and the most knowing one

[PreChorus]
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those fathoms you've learned to keep inside

[Chorus]
You are rooted in the deep, you are steady in the fire,
Every scar has built the altar, every wound has climbed you higher,
The cosmos wrote you carefully, with ink that never fades,
You are ancient and you're unfolding, more becoming every day

[Verse 2]
You love like you're crossing a country with no map to hold,
Honest and high-spirited, loyal to the bone,
You want a love that grows you, that tells you the truth,
That runs beside your freedom and doesn't ask you to choose,
You've given more than asked for, you've smoothed what wasn't yours,
Still wanting someone solid enough to open all your doors

[PreChorus]
You've bent yourself for harmony too long,
What's yours to keep is also what makes you strong

[Chorus]
You are rooted in the deep, you are steady in the fire,
Every scar has built the altar, every wound has climbed you higher,
The cosmos wrote you carefully, with ink that never fades,
You are ancient and you're unfolding, more becoming every day

[Verse 3]
You've questioned every ceiling and rebuilt what wasn't true,
You've worn a face of coolness over everything you knew,
There's a child in you still asking if the effort is enough,
But the gold you keep on hiding is the very thing you are,
Your restlessness is wisdom and your searching is a torch,
You don't need to earn your place here, you were written for this world

[PreChorus]
The path has been an uphill road of grace,
But every step has carved a sacred space

[Chorus]
You are rooted in the deep, you are steady in the fire,
Every scar has built the altar, every wound has climbed you higher,
The cosmos wrote you carefully, with ink that never fades,
You are ancient and you're unfolding, more becoming every day

[Bridge]
You don't have to hold the whole sky up alone,
Let the ground beneath you carry you back home,
The stars that shaped you haven't lost the thread,
You are everything you've needed, nothing less

[Outro]
Rest now in the knowing you were made with care,
The universe still speaks your name into the air,
You are enough, you have always been enough
