[Verse 1]
There's a fire at the centre of everything you do,
A charge that moves before the world has time to catch up to you,
They see the confidence, the warmth, the way you hold the room,
But they don't see what burns beneath that quiet afternoon,
The wave that doesn't rest, the current underneath,
The places where you've swallowed what you couldn't speak,
You learned to hold yourself together long before they asked,
You built your whole foundation wearing someone else's mask,

[PreChorus]
But the stars were writing something deeper all along,
Every wound you carried quietly was shaping you to strong,
You are not the surface, you're the depth beneath the tide,
You are so much more than what you've ever tried to hide,

[Chorus]
Sue, you are a fire that the world can't contain,
You are ancient water running deeper than your pain,
You are everything you searched for at the edge of the unknown,
Sue, you were never lost, you were always finding home,

[Verse 2]
You've loved with all the courage of someone who's been burned,
And still you offered everything before the lesson turned,
You dive headfirst into feeling like it's all you've ever known,
Then wonder why it costs you more than anyone has shown,
You sense the truth in people long before they speak it out,
You read between the silences, you know what they're about,
And yet you've doubted your own compass, questioned your own worth,
Not knowing that your empathy is rare beyond the earth,

[PreChorus]
But the stars were writing something deeper all along,
Every wound you carried quietly was shaping you to strong,
You are not the surface, you're the depth beneath the tide,
You are so much more than what you've ever tried to hide,

[Chorus]
Sue, you are a fire that the world can't contain,
You are ancient water running deeper than your pain,
You are everything you searched for at the edge of the unknown,
Sue, you were never lost, you were always finding home,

[Verse 3]
Your mind moves like a river finding channels no one mapped,
It speaks in dream and image, in the things that can't be cracked,
They wanted logic, structure, all the edges clear and straight,
But you were born to find the truth that waits behind the gate,
And the questions you've been carrying like stones across the years,
The ones about belonging, meaning, all the unnamed fears,
They weren't signs that you were broken or had wandered off your way,
They were leading you to something you couldn't name until today,

[PreChorus]
The universe has held you in its careful, knowing hands,
It wrote your contradictions into beautiful demands,
The freedom and the duty, the feeling and the form,
You were never meant to be the calm, you were born to be the storm,

[Chorus]
Sue, you are a fire that the world can't contain,
You are ancient water running deeper than your pain,
You are everything you searched for at the edge of the unknown,
Sue, you were never lost, you were always finding home,

[Verse 4]
Stop measuring your value by the weight of what you've done,
Stop counting all the seasons by the battles you have won,
You don't need to earn the right to rest inside your skin,
You are worthy of the life that you keep letting others in,
The world will always ask you for a little more than this,
And you'll give it, because giving is the language that you speak,
But the gift the world needs most from you is not your endless reach,
It's the version of yourself you keep just out of everyone's sight,

[PreChorus]
The universe has held you in its careful, knowing hands,
It wrote your contradictions into beautiful demands,
The freedom and the duty, the feeling and the form,
You were never meant to be the calm, you were born to be the storm,

[Chorus]
Sue, you are a fire that the world can't contain,
You are ancient water running deeper than your pain,
You are everything you searched for at the edge of the unknown,
Sue, you were never lost, you were always finding home,

[Bridge]
You don't have to be perfect,
You don't have to be still,
You don't have to keep climbing
Every impossible hill,
Let the stars hold
