[Verse 1]
There's a current beneath the surface, still and wide,
A mind that reads the room before you step inside,
You carry every room you've ever lost or loved,
The weight of what you know sits quiet, unannounced
You've learned to build your home inside your bones,
And tend the fire gently when you're on your own

[PreChorus]
They see the measured words, the careful, polished face,
They don't see what it costs to hold that kind of grace

[Chorus]
But Judi, you were written in the deep,
In the language that the ocean learns to keep,
Every scar, a root; every root, a door,
You were made for more than you've let yourself be sure of before

[Verse 2]
You love like something ancient given wings to roam,
You need the wide horizon and you need the home,
There's a part of you that questions where the truth begins,
A mind that won't stop turning, pulling light from within,
You've served so many quietly without a name,
And given what you had before you staked your claim

[PreChorus]
The world has leaned on you like you were built to hold,
But even the most constant flame deserves its own threshold

[Chorus]
And Judi, you were written in the deep,
In the language that the ocean learns to keep,
Every scar, a root; every root, a door,
You were made for more than you've let yourself be sure of before

[Verse 3]
You've wrestled with belonging like a question mark on stone,
Stood in rooms of many and still somehow felt alone,
But that distance wasn't absence, it was altitude,
The view from where you stand is something no one else could,
Now something in the atmosphere is clearing, shifting clean,
The words you've held in winter start to finally mean

[PreChorus]
The fog is lifting slowly from the things you've known,
What you were afraid to say is yours, and yours alone

[Chorus]
So Judi, you were written in the deep,
In the language that the ocean learns to keep,
Every scar, a root; every root, a door,
You were made for more than you've let yourself be sure of before

[Bridge]
The sky above your birth night held its breath and then exhaled,
And everything you carry is the proof that you prevailed,
You don't need to be remade, you only need to see,
The one who moves through fire and still arrives, is always free

[Outro]
Let the stars speak what your silence long has known,
You were never lost, you were only on your way home,
Judi, the cosmos wrote you carefully, with ink that holds,
And the best of who you are is still unfolding, still bold
