[Verse 1]
She came into the world already wearing something old,
A seriousness behind her eyes, composed and twice as bold,
Not the child who threw a tantrum, but the one who kept the score,
Who read the room before she spoke and quietly asked for more,
She's been the steady hand, the one who showed up when it's hard,
The vision and the blueprint both, the architect and the yard,

[PreChorus]
But the dreamer and the builder live inside the same address,
And the tension between both of them is not a flaw — it's the fortress,

[Chorus]
Lori, you were forged in what you held and didn't show,
The arrow drawn back furthest is the one that's built to go,
Every partnership that broke you just refined what you could see,
Lori, the full moon's up and it's revealing who you'll be,

[Verse 2]
She keeps a second world behind the one that people see,
A cellar-deep interior where she processes and breathes,
She digs past what's been offered for the truth beneath the claim,
She's read between the ledger lines and called out what they named,
She loves the way a notary signs the deed — with certainty,
No flourish for the gallery, just loyalty and constancy,

[PreChorus]
The kind of love that builds a table, sets it once, and doesn't leave,
The kind that doesn't say it loud but shows up when you grieve,

[Chorus]
Lori, you were never meant to love from the shallow end,
Every soul you chose completely knew you'd hold them past the bend,
The crowd that called for easy never earned the depth you carry free,
Lori, the full moon's up and it's revealing who you'll be,

[Verse 3]
She's heard the call that pulls her toward the wider public square,
The vision she's been building for the collective waiting there,
She rallied and she organized and dreamed past what she'd done,
The cause she almost didn't join became the one she won,
Now something in the path ahead has cleared the undergrowth,
The woman and the world she's for are finally keeping oath,

[PreChorus]
The hidden and the visible have waited for this door,
The full moon finds her standing on a threshold, not a floor,

[Chorus]
Lori, you were made from what you dared to understand,
Every question that you carried was a compass, not a brand,
The sky has held your name this long because you earned that canopy,
Lori, the full moon's up — step forward — it's revealing who you'll be,

[Bridge]
The ache around the edges was the cost of seeing true,
The debt was never yours to pay but you kept settling through,
Now the account is finally cleared, the signature is dry,
Step into the open, Lori — let the world look you in the eye,

[Outro]
The full moon holds its lantern where the road turns into plain,
Lori, what was hidden was your glory all the same,
