[Verse 1]
There's a stillness in the way you hold the room
Like the earth before a storm, like the quiet before noon
You carry more than anyone can see from the outside
A whole ocean underneath a surface smooth and wide
You build things carefully, you test the ground before you stand
And what looks like patience is the steadiest kind of plan
They see the calm, they don't see the tide
All those currents running fathoms deep inside

[PreChorus]
You've been proving you were worthy since before you knew the word
Carrying burdens in the silence, making sure you weren't a burden
But the weight you've worn like armour is the evidence of gold
Of everything you've gathered, every story you've been told

[Chorus]
So shine on, Jess, like the last light of the day
Every crack in you is where the good things find their way
You were written in the long grass and the deep and patient stone
Jess, you were never lost — you were always finding home

[Verse 2]
There's a fire underneath the quiet, quick and brave and wide
A mind that moves before the world has even stepped outside
You think in sparks and colours, you love like it's a leap of faith
And every time it costs you, you believe again anyway
You've stood in rooms and wondered if your voice was worth the air
Then said the thing that cracked them open, made them stop and stare
The ache of not being heard became the gift you finally gave
The words you learned to trust became the bridge across the wave

[PreChorus]
You've been torn between the dreaming and the needing something real
Between the vision that ignites you and the ground beneath your heels
But that tension is the compass, it's the thing that makes you true
The push and pull inside you is the making of you

[Chorus]
So shine on, Jess, like the last light of the day
Every crack in you is where the good things find their way
You were written in the long grass and the deep and patient stone
Jess, you were never lost — you were always finding home

[Verse 3]
You've fought so many battles in the rooms no one can see
Where the shadows press against you and you face them quietly
There's a part of you that carries what the daylight never knows
Ancient, stubborn, undefeated — that's the seed beneath the snow
You give before you're asked to, you feel before you speak
And the ones who truly know you know that's not a sign of weak
You love with something older than a feeling or a thought
Like a loyalty that outlasts every lesson you were taught

[PreChorus]
You've been learning how to soften what you hold so tightly in
How to let the need for safety be a door and not a den
And the healing isn't somewhere in the future far away
It's every honest moment, it's the truth you speak today

[Chorus]
So shine on, Jess, like the last light of the day
Every crack in you is where the good things find their way
You were written in the long grass and the deep and patient stone
Jess, you were never lost — you were always finding home

[Verse 4]
The world you want to build is one where no one walks alone
Where every broken system gets rebuilt from something known
You've always seen the structure underneath the way things fall
And you rebuild what matters, you leave room enough for all
Your purpose isn't louder than the rest, it's rooted deep
It rises through the daily things, the promises you keep
The way you show up quietly and give your whole self there
Is not a small thing — it's the rarest form of care

[PreChorus]
You were made for more than proving you deserve to take up space
You were made to rest inside your worth and wear it on your face
The cosmos laid you down like something carefully designed
Not a single piece of you was left to chance or left behind

[Chorus]
So shine on, Jess, like the last light of the day
Every crack in you is where the good things find their way
You were written in the long grass and the deep and patient stone
Jess, you were never lost — you were always finding home

[Bridge]
You don't have to hold the whole sky up to earn your place beneath it
You don't have to burn yourself to nothing so that others feel the heat
You are the kind
