[Verse 1]
He grew up reading rooms before he read a single page,
His heart on the outside, his face a calibrated stage,
The house he came from had no solid floor, just shifting ground,
A boy who learned to balance what he couldn't pin down,
He mapped himself by mirrors and by who was standing near,
But underneath that steady gaze, the charge was always clear,

[PreChorus]
He carried every tension where nobody thought to look,
The weight behind the diplomat, the fire in the book,

[Chorus]
Jeremy, you were built for more than keeping the peace,
The push and pull inside you is your power, not your lease,
Every room you've ever steadied was steadied by your fire,
Jeremy, the whole sky tipped the day you stopped playing smaller and aimed higher,

[Verse 2]
He runs his calculations twice, then trusts the feeling first,
A mind that moves in metaphors, in images immersed,
He'll show you love through presence, through a meal that takes all day,
Through loyalty that doesn't flinch when others drift away,
But devotion worn too long without a witness gets so thin,
He's been the one who holds the door and rarely walks back in,

[PreChorus]
Something in the waiting broke and opened like a field,
The harvest doesn't come from what you buried — what you yield,

[Chorus]
Jeremy, the scales you kept for everyone but you,
The steady, patient currency of everything you do,
You've always been the kind of man who shows up and remains,
Jeremy, now let September settle what the summer couldn't name,

[Verse 3]
He's got a rebel buried deep that doesn't need a crowd,
An originality that crackles, restless, proud,
He'll challenge what the rulebook says should govern how things run,
But does it quietly, surgically, until the work is done,
The fire he keeps sequestered where the world can't pick apart,
Has always been the loudest voice petitioning his heart,

[PreChorus]
He's not the man who begs for stages, but the stage is due,
The recognition withheld longest always was for you,

[Chorus]
Jeremy, step out from every shadow that you built,
The craftsmanship of hiding left no margin for your gilt,
The door you've held for others swings, this time, for you alone,
Jeremy, the equinox is calling, and the credit's yours to own,

[Verse 4]
He's crossed so many thresholds where the terms kept shifting fast,
Signed contracts with his silence and assumed they'd always last,
But something in the long count, in the ledger finally squared,
Showed him all the interest earned on everything he'd dared,
He's stood at the division of the equal dark and day,
And knew at last the portion that was always meant to stay,

[PreChorus]
Not what he gave away — what held its shape inside the giving,
Not what he survived — but what it means to start the living,

[Chorus]
Jeremy, the reckoning is steady, it is here,
The man who served the vision now can let the vision steer,
The boldness that you rationed out is done apologizing,
Jeremy, you're the anthem and the day that you've been rising,

[Bridge]
Every door that didn't open was a room that wasn't built for where you're going,
Every calculation made in silence grew a discipline worth knowing,
The ground beneath you didn't crack — it consolidated, slow and true,
You didn't wait for autumn — autumn waited, Jeremy, on you,

[Outro]
So take the full half of the day that now belongs to you,
Step into the portion of the sky you're owed and always knew,
Jeremy, the harvest has a name and it is yours to call,
Stand in the open, claim the light — you earned it, all,
