[Verse 1]
You came in like a spark before the season turned green
With a mind that moves faster than most eyes have seen
Always the first to step out into unmarked ground
A heart that runs loud even when you make no sound

Kerry, you think before others have opened their eyes
You talk your way into the truth of things, and it fits like surprise
There's a softness behind all that fire you carry inside
A place you don't show — where the real you resides

[Pre-Chorus]
You've been learning to let what you love be enough
To stop running from stillness, to sit with the rough
The world gets loud, but you've always known how to feel
The difference between what is wanted and what is real

[Chorus]
Let the fire lead, Kerry, the path will appear
You were made for the wide open, not for the fear
Every word that you speak lands like rain on dry earth
And the ones who can hear you will know what it's worth
You're not lost — you're just early, arriving in time
All that restless becoming is finally the sign

[Verse 2]
You love like the tide — full and generous and strange
You feel everything deeply, but call it a phase
Behind all that laughter there's something that aches
A kind of old longing that wakes when the light breaks

And people come to you carrying things they can't name
You hold them without asking, you don't play the blame game
There's a healer in you that you haven't quite claimed
Something ancient and quiet, not yet fully named

[Pre-Chorus]
You've been learning to trust what your instincts already knew
To stop asking permission to simply be you
The work isn't out there — it lives in the small
In the daily, the humble, the honest, the all

[Chorus]
Let the fire lead, Kerry, the path will appear
You were made for the wide open, not for the fear
Every word that you speak lands like rain on dry earth
And the ones who can hear you will know what it's worth
You're not lost — you're just early, arriving in time
All that restless becoming is finally the sign

[Verse 3]
There's a version of you that's still learning to stay
To build something lasting beyond one bright day
Your courage is real, but the roots want to grow
And you're starting to let them — you're starting to know

Kerry, the grace you've been giving away
Is turning back toward you in ways you can't weigh
What you build from here won't be built out of speed
But out of all that you've chosen, and all that you need

[Pre-Chorus]
You've been learning that longing and purpose can meet
That the wound and the gift share the very same heartbeat
You don't have to fix it to let yourself through
The wholeness was always already in you

[Chorus]
Let the fire lead, Kerry, the path will appear
You were made for the wide open, not for the fear
Every word that you speak lands like rain on dry earth
And the ones who can hear you will know what it's worth
You're not lost — you're just early, arriving in time
All that restless becoming is finally the sign

[Bridge]
You carry a brightness that doesn't announce itself
Not the kind that needs stages or someone else's shelf
It's the kind that stays steady when everything bends
It's the kind that begins where the performance ends
And Venus moves soft through the balance of things
Reminding you gently what loving still brings
Not the love that you earn, not the love that you chase
But the kind that comes home when you stand in your place

[Outro]
Kerry, the stars didn't make you to shrink or to wait
They made you to arrive — and you're never too late
There's a life growing into the shape of your name
And nothing that's happened has put out that flame
