[Verse 1]
You hold the room without a word, a current no one names,
A balance-seeker on the outside, but inside — ancient flames
The calm they see is just the surface, tides run deep below,
An ocean dressed in careful stillness, more than they will ever know
You feel the room before you're in it, carry what you cannot say,
A mind like architecture, building meaning every day

[PreChorus]
There's a restlessness inside you that refuses to be tamed,
And a tenderness you've hidden so it couldn't be reclaimed

[Chorus]
You are the tide, you are the ember,
Something the world will always remember
Written in light that never fades,
You were made for more than you've let yourself claim

[Verse 2]
You love like something slow and certain, roots beneath the stone,
You take your time to open fully, but you never love alone
There's a wound around belonging, around whether you should stay,
But every scar you tried to bury quietly lit your way
You've poured yourself in every corner of a life you're building still,
And what they call your overthinking is a mind that time won't still

[PreChorus]
You've carried more than you were given, held your ground without applause,
Every wall you built was shelter, not a flaw, not just because

[Chorus]
You are the tide, you are the ember,
Something the world will always remember
Written in light that never fades,
You were made for more than you've let yourself claim

[Verse 3]
Your curiosity moves faster than the world can follow through,
And the dreams you hold like lanterns — they were made to carry you
The questions that you circle back to in the quiet of the night,
Are the compass that is pulling you toward something true and bright
You don't need the world's permission to believe that you belong,
The universe has known your name since long before this song

[PreChorus]
The stars were set in motion with a version of you in mind,
And everything you're growing toward was never left behind

[Chorus]
You are the tide, you are the ember,
Something the world will always remember
Written in light that never fades,
You were made for more than you've let yourself claim

[Bridge]
Stop running from the version of you that is already whole,
The depth you've called a burden is the doorway to your soul
You are guided, you are held, you are enough right here,
The cosmos wrote you carefully — and everything is clear

[Outro]
Let your stars decide the current, let your roots decide the ground,
You were always the truest thing that you were looking to be found
