[Verse 1]
There's a stillness that you carry like a stone worn smooth by rain,
Roots sunk deep beneath the surface where you've learned to hold your pain,
A fire underneath the quiet, moving faster than it shows,
You've built your whole life inward where the warmest hearthlight glows,
They see the calm, they miss the tide, the current running low,
The one who holds the room together rarely lets it show.

[PreChorus]
But every anchor has its ocean, every ember has its glow,
You were never meant to shrink yourself for spaces built too low.

[Chorus]
You are the root and the rising flame,
The steady hand that holds without a claim,
You've walked through depth no one else could see,
And you came back, and that's your victory.

[Verse 2]
You love like conversation, like a question that won't end,
Like a door left slightly open for the ones who need to mend,
You fight for those you shelter with a fierceness soft as tide,
Wrapping care around your courage like a secret place inside,
But somewhere in the giving, did you learn to ask for less,
To call your needs a burden and your hunger restlessness?

[PreChorus]
Every wound you turned to wisdom, every silence held its song,
You were never too much, never — you were always right where you belong.

[Chorus]
You are the root and the rising flame,
The steady hand that holds without a claim,
You've walked through depth no one else could see,
And you came back, and that's your victory.

[Verse 3]
There's a new moon rising now above the water and the wild,
Awakening the part of you that knew before it was beguiled,
Something in your chest says move, before the reason's fully formed,
That instinct is a compass, not a glitch inside the storm,
You've crossed enough thresholds now to trust the next one at the door,
The path ahead was written in the same sky as before.

[PreChorus]
Let the old moon fall away, let what no longer fits release,
You were made for greater distances, for depth, for truth, for peace.

[Chorus]
You are the root and the rising flame,
The steady hand that holds without a claim,
You've walked through depth no one else could see,
And you came back, and that's your victory.

[Bridge]
The cosmos wrote you carefully with ink that never fades,
Every scar a kind of compass, every night a gift of days,
You don't have to earn the right to rest inside your worth,
You were already enough the moment you arrived on earth.

[Outro]
So let the new moon find you open, let the next chapter begin,
Everything you've ever needed has been living here within.
