[Verse 1]
There's a tide inside you no one ever sees
Calm on the surface, wild beneath the breeze
You read the room before you read your own heart
You've been holding everyone together from the start
You speak in feeling, every word a careful thread
You carry what was said and what was left unsaid
They see the grace, the warmth, the way you make them feel
But no one stops to ask which parts of you need healing

[PreChorus]
You've learned to be what every moment needs
But underneath that giving, something quietly bleeds
Not a wound that breaks you, it's the depth that made you real
Every tide that pulled you under taught you how to feel

[Chorus]
Alysha, the sky mapped you out in something rare
A soul that holds the ocean and still comes up for air
You love like ancient water, patient, wide, and true
The universe spent lifetimes learning how to build someone like you
Alysha, you don't have to earn the right to take up space
You were written in the stars with an irreplaceable grace
Let the world see all of you, not just the parts that shine
You are whole, you are held, and every part of you is fine

[Verse 2]
There's a mind in you that never leaves a stone unturned
You feel before you think and then you think until it burns
You've questioned every system, every map that others drew
You're a philosophical heart who has to find what's true
You've loved with every cell, and love's cost you something dear
You've stood at the door of trust and let the doubt keep you here
But the way you give before you're asked, that's not weakness, love
That's a kind of grace that people spend their whole lives dreaming of

[PreChorus]
You've felt the push and pull between the safe and the unknown
Between the need to be loved and the need to be alone
Not a fault inside you, it's the current of your becoming
You're not lost, you're somewhere between arriving and returning

[Chorus]
Alysha, the sky mapped you out in something rare
A soul that holds the ocean and still comes up for air
You love like ancient water, patient, wide, and true
The universe spent lifetimes learning how to build someone like you
Alysha, you don't have to earn the right to take up space
You were written in the stars with an irreplaceable grace
Let the world see all of you, not just the parts that shine
You are whole, you are held, and every part of you is fine

[Verse 3]
You've stood beneath the weight of things you couldn't name
Rebuilt yourself in silence and arrived not quite the same
But different doesn't mean diminished, it means you went all the way through
There's a quiet kind of power in the reinvention that is you
The world needs what you carry in the places you've been broken
The words you've never said aloud, the truths left barely spoken
Your voice was made for something more than keeping the peace
It was made to move through people like a tide that won't release

[PreChorus]
You're learning that your value isn't measured by your giving
That resting is not failing, it's the bravest kind of living
Not something you must earn with every sacrifice and sigh
You were already enough before you ever had to try

[Chorus]
Alysha, the sky mapped you out in something rare
A soul that holds the ocean and still comes up for air
You love like ancient water, patient, wide, and true
The universe spent lifetimes learning how to build someone like you
Alysha, you don't have to earn the right to take up space
You were written in the stars with an irreplaceable grace
Let the world see all of you, not just the parts that shine
You are whole, you are held, and every part of you is fine

[Bridge]
There's a compass in your chest that always knew the way
Through the nights you couldn't name and the hardest kinds of days
You were never without direction, you were never without light
You were the moon that held the dark and still made the dark feel right
The things that made you question, every scar and every season
Were not punishments or failures, they were all a part of the reason
You are standing where you're standing and the ground beneath you's real
You were built for more than surviving, you were
