[Verse 1]
There's a fire burning quiet underneath the still,
A current moving steady with a deep and patient will,
The world sees someone grounded, someone sure of where she stands,
But inside there's a tide that no one fully understands,
She carries all the tenderness she never learned to name,
And loves with the conviction of a long-sustained flame,
She moves before the moment, feels before the thought,
And holds the kind of wisdom that can only be hard-fought

[PreChorus]
They see the calm, they miss the storm within,
They see the surface, never where the depths begin,
But everything she carries, everything she's known,
Has made her into something rare and wholly her own

[Chorus]
Maria, you were written by the oldest kind of light,
You are the ocean and the ember burning bright,
The moon behind the mountain and the root beneath the stone,
Maria, every part of you has always been your home,
You are enough, you have always been enough

[Verse 2]
She's listened to a thousand needs before she named her own,
She's built a table full of warmth and sat there half alone,
There's a longing deep inside her for the love she freely gives,
A quiet ache she carries through the life she fully lives,
She's stood inside the middle ground between the heart and mind,
And searched the in-between for what she couldn't always find,
But every time she chose to stay, to tend, to understand,
She left a quiet miracle in someone's outstretched hand

[PreChorus]
She's held the weight of others like it cost her nothing dear,
But the truest act of courage is to let someone come near,
And what she calls her weakness is just love without a name,
A depth so rare and ancient that the stars feel much the same

[Chorus]
Maria, you were written by the oldest kind of light,
You are the ocean and the ember burning bright,
The moon behind the mountain and the root beneath the stone,
Maria, every part of you has always been your home,
You are enough, you have always been enough

[Bridge]
She doesn't need to earn the place she already holds,
The cracks inside her story are the places she is whole,
There's a compass in her chest that always knows the way,
Through every transformation, through the dark, into the day,
She belongs to something wider than the rooms she's moved between,
She's the kind of soul the universe keeps tender and keeps seen,
Let the fire and the water finally learn to coexist,
She was never incomplete — she was never what she missed

[Outro]
Maria, you are grounded and you're boundless all at once,
You are every quiet brave thing that the daylight never stunts,
The cosmos wrote you carefully with ink that never fades,
And you are held, you are guided, through every single phase,
You are enough,
You have always been enough
