[Verse 1]
There's a mountain in the way you hold your ground,
Patient as the winter, steady as the sound
Of something built to last through every breaking wave,
A quiet kind of power that the calendar can't cage
You carry more than people see you carry,
A mind like stone and water — still, but never ordinary

[PreChorus]
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those currents running wide and deep inside

[Chorus]
Denise, you are carved from something that endures,
A soul that builds cathedrals out of what it cures
Every mountain you have moved was moved alone,
But you were never lost — you were finding your way home

[Verse 2]
You love like something ancient and untamed,
Free enough to give, but too honest to be claimed
You reach for connection like a hand across the air,
Wanting something real beneath the surface if it's there
There's a longing tucked inside the calm you wear,
For a love as deep as oceans, for a bond beyond compare

[PreChorus]
You've given more than anyone has counted,
And still the well inside you hasn't emptied

[Chorus]
Denise, you are carved from something that endures,
A soul that builds cathedrals out of what it cures
Every mountain you have moved was moved alone,
But you were never lost — you were finding your way home

[Verse 3]
You've held the weight of worlds that weren't yours to hold,
Kept the hurt invisible, kept the feeling old,
But every wound that drove you deeper found you gold,
Every darkened corridor became a path you'd strolled
There's a healer in the silence that you keep,
A lantern in the places where you go when others sleep

[PreChorus]
The pain you turned to purpose wasn't wasted,
It was every truth you carried, every life you've tasted

[Chorus]
Denise, you are carved from something that endures,
A soul that builds cathedrals out of what it cures
Every mountain you have moved was moved alone,
But you were never lost — you were finding your way home

[Verse 4]
The sky that wrote your story did it carefully,
With ink that doesn't fade and with a hand that chose you free
You don't have to be finished to be worthy of the light,
You don't have to earn your resting in the middle of the night
The world needs what you carry in your bones,
That rare and rooted knowing that you've always somehow known

[PreChorus]
You are not behind, you are not too late,
You are right on time, arriving at your own gate

[Chorus]
Denise, you are carved from something that endures,
A soul that builds cathedrals out of what it cures
Every mountain you have moved was moved alone,
But you were never lost — you were finding your way home

[Bridge]
The stars don't make mistakes in what they choose,
And they chose you with everything — the fire and the bruise
You are held by something older than your fear,
And it has always known that you belong exactly here

[Outro]
So rest now in the knowing you are whole,
The cosmos wrote your name inside the soul
You've always been enough — you always were,
Denise, the universe remembers who you are
