[Verse 1]
They see the light you carry, they don't see the cost
The ocean underneath you, all the times you almost lost
You've poured yourself like water into cups that had no floor
Gave kindness like a birthright to the ones who wanted more
But even when they tried to take the fire from your name
You burned right through the wreckage, and you burned back just the same

[PreChorus]
The ones who tried to dim you couldn't hold a candle here
Every hand that let you down just made your vision clear

[Chorus]
You are not the wound, you are the one who healed
You are not the doubt, you are the truth revealed
The road was long and no one walked it quite like you
And you've always known exactly what you're moving through

[Verse 2]
There's a tide inside your chest that runs both deep and wide
You love with something ancient, something fearless, something tried
You think before you speak but when you do, the ground holds still
Your mind is slow and deliberate the way that mountains will
You've always sensed the undercurrent churning in the room
Read the silence between the words and recognized the wound

[PreChorus]
Your heart was never weakness, it was always your design
The ones who couldn't hold it were just frightened by the size

[Chorus]
You are not the wound, you are the one who healed
You are not the doubt, you are the truth revealed
The road was long and no one walked it quite like you
And you've always known exactly what you're moving through

[Verse 3]
You were built to lead a path that hadn't been cut yet
To be the first to stand where others only sat and fret
There's a compass in your bones that points toward something real
Not the version they imagined, but the one you know you feel
The stars laid out the blueprint in the dark before your birth
And everything you've carried is exactly what you're worth

[PreChorus]
The world needs what you're holding and it always has been true
No one else was ever meant to do the thing that only you can do

[Chorus]
You are not the wound, you are the one who healed
You are not the doubt, you are the truth revealed
The road was long and no one walked it quite like you
And you've always known exactly what you're moving through

[Bridge]
This is the part where you stop explaining yourself away
This is the turn where the heroine decides to stay
The cosmos didn't shape you just to have you bend and break
You are the light — and you were never anyone's mistake

[Outro]
So come back to the truth of who you were before the noise
Come back to the steady flame, come back to your own voice
You don't need their permission to become what you already are
You've been the whole horizon, not just one small star
