[Verse 1]
There's a fire in your chest that burns steady and bright
While the ocean inside you runs deeper than sight
You arrange all the pieces with surgical care
But the waters keep moving beneath what you wear
Every word that you speak has been weighed and refined
Like a prayer that you've polished a thousand times

[PreChorus]
You feel everything twice, every hurt and each grace
With a heart that remembers but won't show its face

[Chorus]
Nicole, you're the storm and the shelter combined
Nicole, there's a wisdom in how you're designed
You love like a ritual, quiet and true
The universe wrote you with ink that won't fade through
Nicole, you are enough, you are whole, you are right
Nicole, you're the darkness that births its own light

[Verse 2]
You see patterns in chaos where others see mess
Turn the weight of the world into tenderness
When they ask for your thoughts, you give them your soul
But you carry their secrets like burning coal
There's a method to how you hold beauty and pain
Like you're building a bridge through the wind and the rain

[PreChorus]
You seek the connection that cuts to the core
But you guard your own heart like it's been here before

[Chorus]
Nicole, you're the storm and the shelter combined
Nicole, there's a wisdom in how you're designed
You love like a ritual, quiet and true
The universe wrote you with ink that won't fade through
Nicole, you are enough, you are whole, you are right
Nicole, you're the darkness that births its own light

[Verse 3]
In the spaces between what you say and you mean
Lives a truth that most people have never seen
You can read all the rooms and you balance the scales
But your own worth gets lost in the telling of tales
There's a child in you crying for simple embrace
While the grown-up keeps fixing what time can't erase

[PreChorus]
You give more than you take, then wonder why you're dry
But your emptiness holds up the whole world's sky

[Chorus]
Nicole, you're the storm and the shelter combined
Nicole, there's a wisdom in how you're designed
You love like a ritual, quiet and true
The universe wrote you with ink that won't fade through
Nicole, you are enough, you are whole, you are right
Nicole, you're the darkness that births its own light

[Verse 4]
Every wall that you've built has a door hidden near
Every mask that you wear holds the truth you hold dear
You don't need to be perfect to claim your own space
You don't need to earn love, it's already your grace
The world needs your questions, your doubt and your fire
Your way of transforming what others call dire

[Bridge]
Stop carrying water for gardens not yours
Stop giving your keys to unlock others' doors
Your sensitivity isn't a burden to bear
It's the gift that you came here specifically to share
The cosmos conspired to make you this deep
You're the keeper of secrets that others can't keep

[Outro]
There's a compass inside you that points toward home
And it's carved from the stars and the earth's ancient bone
You belong to yourself first, then give what you choose
Nicole, you are the answer to questions you never could lose
