[Verse 1]
You wear your crown like second nature, golden and bright
But beneath the warmth you show, there's a deeper light
A mind that speaks in stories, changes with the breeze
Searching for the perfect words that put your heart at ease
You love through tender moments, building something true
Creating little sanctuaries where souls can make it through

[PreChorus]
There's a fire in your thinking and a gentleness you give
You dance between the questions of how you want to live

[Chorus]
Teryl, you're the steady hand when the world feels wild
Teryl, you're the careful heart with the rebel's child
You see what others cannot, you know the deeper way
The universe keeps whispering that you were born to stay

[Verse 2]
They see your calm composure but miss the storm inside
All those currents running through the places that you hide
Your words cut straight to center when you need them to
But sometimes all that clarity can't hold the feelings too
You build your walls with purpose, every brick in place
Still learning how to soften when you need that saving grace

[PreChorus]
There's wisdom in your waiting and rebellion in your dreams
You're mapping out a future that's much bigger than it seems

[Chorus]
Teryl, you're the steady hand when the world feels wild
Teryl, you're the careful heart with the rebel's child
You see what others cannot, you know the deeper way
The universe keeps whispering that you were born to stay

[Verse 3]
When others rush toward answers, you take the longer road
Knowing that the journey shapes the treasures that unfold
Your heart beats for connection but freedom's what you need
Growing through the tension of what others want and what you bleed
The stars have mapped your pathway through the doubt and through the fear
You don't need to be perfect, just present and sincere

[Bridge]
Every scar became a story, every wound became a guide
You've been learning how to balance all the truth you hold inside
The compass points toward something only you can truly see
You are guided, you are held, you are exactly who you're meant to be

[Outro]
The world needs what you carry, don't give your gifts away
There's a light that moves through everything you do and everything you say
You were written by the cosmos with the ink that never fades
Trust the path that brought you here through all the choices that you've made
