[Verse 1]
Still waters on the surface, but the depths know your name,
A mountain made of patience holding fire in its frame,
You carry what you've conquered like it weighs nothing at all,
The ones who've seen you broken know you rose from every fall,
There's a hunger underneath that calm, a tide that never sleeps,
You don't show them what it costs you just to hold the things you keep

[PreChorus]
They see the grace, they miss the storm behind your eyes,
But everything you've buried is exactly how you rise

[Chorus]
You are ancient, you are able, you were written by the sky,
Every scar a secret chapter, every wound a reason why,
You are rooted and you're reaching, you are iron and you're light,
You were made for this becoming, you were always worth the fight

[Verse 2]
You love the way a conversation opens like a door,
You give your whole attention and then quietly want more,
Not surface, never surface — you need something true and real,
A partner who can hold your mind before they touch what's underneath to feel,
You've learned that love without a mirror leaves you hollow in the chest,
And still you keep on showing up and giving them your best

[PreChorus]
You've poured yourself in people who could never fill you back,
But every empty vessel taught you what you didn't lack

[Chorus]
You are ancient, you are able, you were written by the sky,
Every scar a secret chapter, every wound a reason why,
You are rooted and you're reaching, you are iron and you're light,
You were made for this becoming, you were always worth the fight

[Verse 3]
You've worked so hard the world forgot to say your name out loud,
Stood steady in the background, held the weight beneath the crowd,
The recognition felt elusive like a door that wouldn't turn,
But every hour you gave in silence, every lesson hard to learn,
Became the kind of wisdom that no title could explain,
You're not building it for glory — you're building it to remain

[PreChorus]
The legacy you're leaving isn't what the world can see,
It's every life you've quietly altered just by choosing to be free

[Chorus]
You are ancient, you are able, you were written by the sky,
Every scar a secret chapter, every wound a reason why,
You are rooted and you're reaching, you are iron and you're light,
You were made for this becoming, you were always worth the fight

[Bridge]
The cosmos didn't make you whole by keeping you from pain,
It made you out of everything that asked you to remain,
You don't need to earn your place beneath this spinning sky,
You've always been exactly where the stars meant you to arrive

[Outro]
So rest inside the truth of what you've always truly been,
The most enduring kind of strength is quiet and unseen,
You are held, you are enough, you are finally allowed,
To take up all the space you've earned and wear your becoming proud
