[Verse 1]
There's a mountain in the way you hold your ground,
Steady hands that never let the world come unwound,
You build things slow, you build them right, you build them deep,
You carry more than anyone will ever see,
They see the calm, they don't see the tide you keep,
A mind like winter fire — sharp, wide, and complete

[PreChorus]
But beneath that strong composure, there's a restless thing,
A voice that changes octaves every time it sings

[Chorus]
Shireen, you are the mountain and the open sky,
The one who holds the lantern when the road runs dry,
You don't have to carry every answer in your hands,
The cosmos built you carefully to understand

[Verse 2]
You love the way old stone loves — slow and without end,
Loyal past the point of breaking, steady as a friend,
But sometimes you stay quiet when your own heart needs to speak,
You give before you're asked and call that love, not need,
The walls you built were wisdom, not a sign of loss,
And learning when to rest is not the same as being soft

[PreChorus]
Every scar has taught your hands to hold the sacred weight,
And everything you doubted carved the path you navigate

[Chorus]
Shireen, you are the mountain and the open sky,
The one who holds the lantern when the road runs dry,
You don't have to carry every answer in your hands,
The cosmos built you carefully to understand

[Verse 3]
Your mind moves like two rivers running side by side,
One that plans the future out, one chasing open wide,
You've ached to be heard truly in a room that couldn't hold
The fullness of the language only you were born to know,
That longing wasn't weakness — it was knowing your own worth,
And every word you trusted in was adding to the earth

[PreChorus]
There's a fire working quietly behind the things you do,
A purpose you were born with that the world is walking toward in you

[Chorus]
Shireen, you are the mountain and the open sky,
The one who holds the lantern when the road runs dry,
You don't have to carry every answer in your hands,
The cosmos built you carefully to understand

[Verse 4]
You've wrestled truth from belief and come out changed,
Torn apart the borrowed maps and left the false ones where they stayed,
There's a compass deep inside you pointing somewhere real,
A calling past the noise of who they said you ought to feel,
You are not your proving, not your labor, not your doubt,
You were whole before the work began — that's what the stars found out

[PreChorus]
The universe has held your name inside its oldest thread,
And nothing you have carried was too heavy to have led

[Bridge]
You've been the anchor, been the arrow, been the light,
You were never lost — you were becoming overnight,
The strength you've given out was always yours to keep,
You are rooted in a grace that even silence runs too deep

[Outro]
Shireen, the sky remembers how it wrote your name,
You are the whole of it — the wild, the still, the flame,
You don't need to become what you already are,
You were always, always, always written in the stars
