[Verse]
There's a quiet riot that lives in your chest
A current that pulls when the surface looks blessed
You've smiled through the rooms where you wanted to scream
And cried in the dark at the weight of a dream
You feel the world twice, once outside, once within
The bruise of a word, the shape of a sin
You read between breaths what most people miss
The tremor inside of an ordinary kiss

[PreChorus]
You are not the still water they've taken you for
There's a kingdom of fire below every shore
A pulse and a hunger, a wound and a wing
A whole god of weather inside everything

[Chorus]
You are the flood and the fault and the flame
The hand that won't tremble, the heart that won't tame
You burn in the places no one's allowed
A storm dressed in stillness, a cathedral, a cloud

[Verse]
You crave what unmakes you, you reach for the deep
The intimate dark where the soul doesn't sleep
You'd rather be ruined by something that's true
Than safe in a love that's not big enough for you
You've made yourself small for the comfort of rooms
You've buried whole gardens beneath your perfumes
But something is rising, ungovernable, near
The version of you that has nothing to fear

[PreChorus]
You are not the still water they've taken you for
There's a kingdom of fire below every shore
A pulse and a hunger, a wound and a wing
A whole god of weather inside everything

[Chorus]
You are the flood and the fault and the flame
The hand that won't tremble, the heart that won't tame
You burn in the places no one's allowed
A storm dressed in stillness, a cathedral, a cloud

[Verse]
There's a girl in your bones who remembers it all
The first time you swallowed the urge to be tall
The hands you let touch you to keep the peace whole
The pieces you traded to soften your soul
You don't owe them softness, you don't owe them small
You don't have to vanish to be loved at all
The ones who can't hold you were never the prize
You'll learn that by watching their distance arrive

[PreChorus]
You are not the still water they've taken you for
There's a kingdom of fire below every shore
A pulse and a hunger, a wound and a wing
A whole god of weather inside everything

[Chorus]
You are the flood and the fault and the flame
The hand that won't tremble, the heart that won't tame
You burn in the places no one's allowed
A storm dressed in stillness, a cathedral, a cloud

[Verse]
The years up ahead won't ask you to shrink
They'll ask you to speak from the edge of the brink
To love like you mean it, to leave when you must
To build something holy from heartbreak and trust
You'll meet your own eyes in a mirror one day
And know every storm that you weathered to stay
The lion will wake in the cage of your throat
And nothing on earth will be able to vote

[PreChorus]
You are not the still water they've taken you for
There's a kingdom of fire below every shore
A pulse and a hunger, a wound and a wing
A whole god of weather inside everything

[Chorus]
You are the flood and the fault and the flame
The hand that won't tremble, the heart that won't tame
You burn in the places no one's allowed
A storm dressed in stillness, a cathedral, a cloud

[Bridge]
So let it come up, let it rise, let it roar
The thing you've been quietly keeping in store
You weren't built for surface, you weren't built for less
You were built for the deep and the wreck and the yes

[Outro]
You are the flood and the fault and the flame
A whole god of weather, and none of it tame
