[Verse 1]
There's a stillness on the surface, like a lake without a wave,
But underneath the quiet, there are depths no one can brave,
They see the steady patience, they see the careful hands,
But they don't see the ocean pulling hard beneath the sands,
There's a world inside that's ancient, full of tides and undertow,
A Scorpio moon that carries what the daylight doesn't show,
You feel everything completely, every shadow, every sting,
And that tenderness you're hiding is the realest gift you bring

[PreChorus]
You've learned to keep your armor, you've learned to hold the line,
But the ones who look the closest see the deepest kind of shine

[Chorus]
You are the calm before the lightning and the lightning all at once,
You are the root that holds the mountain and the river when it runs,
Every wall you ever built was made from something that you felt,
And every scar across your story is a hand that you were dealt,
But oh, the hand was worthy, and the player always knew,
There is nothing in this cosmos more completely whole than you

[Verse 2]
There's a mind that moves like fire before the rest have caught the spark,
Ideas land like thunder in the quiet of the dark,
You think before the world has even opened up its eyes,
And then you double-check the details with a patience hard to find,
You give before you're asked to, you arrange what's fallen through,
You notice what is broken and you know exactly what to do,
But you forget to count yourself among the things worth tending to,
All that care you pour on others — you deserve some of it too

[PreChorus]
You've carried heavy seasons and you've carried them with grace,
There's a groundedness inside you that no storm could ever erase

[Chorus]
You are the calm before the lightning and the lightning all at once,
You are the root that holds the mountain and the river when it runs,
Every wall you ever built was made from something that you felt,
And every scar across your story is a hand that you were dealt,
But oh, the hand was worthy, and the player always knew,
There is nothing in this cosmos more completely whole than you

[Verse 3]
You love the way the deep sea loves — with memory and weight,
You don't forget a kindness and you don't forget the late,
But you also meet connection like a conversation worth the time,
You can lift a room with laughter, you can make the ordinary rhyme,
You've wrestled with the darkness in the mirror, in the bone,
You've stood inside the hardest kinds of reckoning alone,
But every time you surfaced, you came back a little more,
A quieter kind of knowing settled deeper than before

[PreChorus]
The universe did not mistake a single thing it made in you,
You were built with both the thunder and the stillness running through

[Chorus]
You are the calm before the lightning and the lightning all at once,
You are the root that holds the mountain and the river when it runs,
Every wall you ever built was made from something that you felt,
And every scar across your story is a hand that you were dealt,
But oh, the hand was worthy, and the player always knew,
There is nothing in this cosmos more completely whole than you

[Bridge]
You don't have to earn the right to rest inside your own skin,
You don't have to prove the value of the light that lives within,
The ones who've truly seen you know exactly what they hold,
Something rare and unfinished and impossibly bold,
Let the depth be your direction, let the stillness be your ground,
You were written in the stars before you even made a sound

[Outro]
So carry what you carry, but lay down what you don't,
The world needs what you're made of, every thread that makes you whole,
You are ancient, you are tender, you are steady, you are new,
And there is nothing in this cosmos more completely whole than you
