[Verse 1]
He carries the weight of a mountain at rest,
A quiet ambition burning deep in his chest,
They see the steady hand, the measured reply,
But not the fire that flickers behind the eyes,
He's built from patience, from stone and from will,
A man who moves the world by standing still.

[PreChorus]
But underneath that careful, grounded face,
There's a tide that runs at its own wild pace.

[Chorus]
Let your stars speak, Michael, let them tell the truth,
The sky wrote you careful from the days of your youth,
You are more than the mountain, more than the stone,
You are held by the cosmos and you're never alone.

[Verse 2]
He loves like the ocean pulling close to the deep,
Not the kind of devotion that comes easy or cheap,
He gives all of himself when he opens that door,
And the ones that he chooses he would die for,
He's been burned by the hoping, been undone by the need,
But every scar grew roots and every root grew a seed.

[PreChorus]
The heart that's known the dark can find the light,
That's not a wound, that's a lantern in the night.

[Chorus]
Let your stars speak, Michael, let them tell the truth,
The sky wrote you careful from the days of your youth,
You are more than the mountain, more than the stone,
You are held by the cosmos and you're never alone.

[Verse 3]
He's a builder of meaning in a world of noise,
A mind that turns ideas into something like choice,
He's questioned the structures and he's carried the doubt,
Tried to make sense of what the silence was about,
But the questions themselves are the proof of his gift,
Every stone he turned over gave someone else a lift.

[PreChorus]
He was never lost, he was learning the land,
There's a compass in his chest and a map in his hands.

[Chorus]
Let your stars speak, Michael, let them tell the truth,
The sky wrote you careful from the days of your youth,
You are more than the mountain, more than the stone,
You are held by the cosmos and you're never alone.

[Bridge]
You don't have to earn what the stars already gave,
The legacy you carry isn't found in the grave,
It lives in the way that you've chosen to stay,
And the light that you leave at the end of the day.

[Outro]
Let your stars speak, Michael, they've always known,
Every road that you walked you were never alone,
You are rooted, you are held, you are enough.
