[Verse 1]
There's a fire in the chest that moves before the mind can say wait
A heart that leaps toward the horizon, doesn't hesitate
They see the steady surface, they don't see what runs below
The depths you've navigated just to keep your face aglow
You've carried questions heavier than anyone could know
A searcher born with embers where the quiet people go

[PreChorus]
But everything you've wrestled with has built you bone by bone
Every cycle that undid you brought you closer to your own

[Chorus]
You are older than your doubting, you are braver than your fear
You were written in the long dark by a hand that keeps you near
The wound became the compass and the compass points you true
There is nothing still unworthy, there is nothing wrong with you

[Verse 2]
You love like someone diving before they've checked the depth
Full-hearted and unguarded, every single breath
You fight for those you cherish with a fury soft and sure
Through care before confrontation, through the hidden and the pure
You've learned that worth can't live inside the validation of a room
You are the richness you've been searching for beneath all that assumed

[PreChorus]
And somewhere between the wandering and the need to understand
You found that your becoming was already in your hands

[Chorus]
You are older than your doubting, you are braver than your fear
You were written in the long dark by a hand that keeps you near
The wound became the compass and the compass points you true
There is nothing still unworthy, there is nothing wrong with you

[Verse 3]
The mind that never settles is the mind that maps new ground
The restlessness you've wrestled is a gift you've almost found
You don't need to make your wholeness fit the frame they drew for you
The sky that shaped your rising knew exactly what it grew
Something vast and ancient placed its fingerprints right here
On every contradiction, every hope, every year

[PreChorus]
So let the stars that named you be the witness that you need
You were never lost in searching — you were always meant to lead

[Chorus]
You are older than your doubting, you are braver than your fear
You were written in the long dark by a hand that keeps you near
The wound became the compass and the compass points you true
There is nothing still unworthy, there is nothing wrong with you

[Bridge]
The cosmos didn't make you to be small or to stay still
Your depth was never something others measured or could fill
Let the fire speak, let the searching breathe, let the healing come
You are enough right now — exactly what you've always been becoming from

[Outro]
The stars that held your beginning still hold you tonight
You were made for this — the mystery, the depth, the light
Rest now in that knowing, let it settle in your bones
You were never truly searching — you were always coming home
