[Verse 1]
There's a fire in the way you face the open road,
A hunger for the truth that cuts right to the bone,
You speak your mind because you know the world deserves it,
But carry what you feel where no one else can surface,
An ocean runs beneath that easy, searching smile,
And only you know how deep it goes, how worth the while.

[PreChorus]
They see the light you give, they miss the tide inside,
The current that you've learned to let run deep and wide.

[Chorus]
Louise, you were written in a language all your own,
A compass and a constellation, never quite alone,
Every scar became the map that showed you how to stand,
Louise, you are the fire and the steady, open hand.

[Verse 2]
You love like something ancient, hard to name or hold,
You need the space to breathe before a heart can be told,
Friendship is the root before the flower even grows,
You give before you're asked, more than anybody knows,
But you've held your worth at arm's length, afraid it won't be seen,
Mistaking your restraint for something in between.

[PreChorus]
The walls you built were never weakness, they were time,
And everything you guarded grew more worthy, more defined.

[Chorus]
Louise, you were written in a language all your own,
A compass and a constellation, never quite alone,
Every scar became the map that showed you how to stand,
Louise, you are the fire and the steady, open hand.

[Verse 3]
Your mind moves like a river carving stone to find its way,
Quiet on the surface but it never stops its say,
You've pulled apart the things that didn't hold the weight of truth,
And rebuilt what you believed in from the bone and the root,
The world you dream of isn't idle, it's a call,
You weren't made to stand beside the change — you are it all.

[PreChorus]
The visions that you carry aren't too big or too wide,
They're the blueprint of the legacy you're building inside.

[Chorus]
Louise, you were written in a language all your own,
A compass and a constellation, never quite alone,
Every scar became the map that showed you how to stand,
Louise, you are the fire and the steady, open hand.

[Verse 4]
You've earned the right to rest without a reason to prove,
The sky was mapped around you long before your first move,
The ache of early roots that never quite held firm,
Became the ground you learned to turn and tend and return,
You are not behind, not broken, not too much or too thin,
The season that is coming was always meant to begin.

[PreChorus]
The light is rising now for everything you've grown,
And the world that needs your gifts already calls you home.

[Bridge]
You don't have to burn to justify your glow,
You don't have to bleed for someone else to know,
The cosmos wrote you carefully, with ink that doesn't fade,
And everything you are right now is everything you're made.

[Outro]
Louise, the stars that named you haven't finished yet,
Every step you've taken forward, the sky will not forget.
