[Verse 1]
There's a mountain inside where your silence grows deep
With waters that whisper the secrets you keep
You build with your hands what your heart understands
While tending to wounds that nobody sees
Your mind speaks in riddles, your soul speaks in dreams
The world thinks they know you, but nothing's what it seems

[PreChorus]
You're holding the tide while you're learning to swim
Fighting for others while you're drowning within

[Chorus]
Monica, you're more than the calm that you show
There's thunder and lightning in the depths below
Monica, your heart's like an ocean wide
Every wave that you weather makes you come alive
You don't need permission to be who you are
Monica, you're already written in the stars

[Verse 2]
You love like a rebel with a traditionalist heart
Progressive and ancient, you're setting apart
The rules that were given from the truth that you know
Your freedom's not selfish, it's the way that you grow
They see you as steady, but you're electric inside
A visionary hiding behind a quiet pride

[PreChorus]
You're healing the world while you're healing yourself
Finding your voice on the highest shelf

[Chorus]
Monica, you're more than the calm that you show
There's thunder and lightning in the depths below
Monica, your heart's like an ocean wide
Every wave that you weather makes you come alive
You don't need permission to be who you are
Monica, you're already written in the stars

[Bridge]
Your sensitivity isn't weakness, it's sight
Your overthinking is love dressed as fight
The way that you care is a gift to this place
Even when doubt clouds your beautiful face
The cosmos conspired to make someone true
The world's been waiting for someone like you

[Outro]
There's a compass that points to the home in your chest
You're exactly enough, you can finally rest
Every depth that you carry, every height that you've known
Monica, you're already home
