[Verse 1]
She reads the room before she's crossed the door,
Feels what's underneath the surface, what the silence is for,
There's a stillness in the way she holds herself in place,
But a thousand conversations running wild behind her face,
She weighs every word like it's a stone in her hand,
Looking for the balance no one else seems to understand,
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those currents running deep inside,

[PreChorus]
She was built from contradiction and grace,
Fire in her bones and water in her gaze,
She carries what is broken like it's made of something rare,
And she's braver than she's ever been aware,

[Chorus]
Malia, you were written in a language all your own,
Every scar you've tried to hide is how your light has grown,
The universe composed you with a careful, knowing hand,
Malia, you are deeper than the world could understand,
You don't have to earn your place, you've always had a right,
You were mapped into the heavens long before your very first night,

[Verse 2]
She loves like something ancient that refuses to run dry,
Generous with everything except the reasons why,
She gives before she's asked, she stays a little too long,
Mistaking her own tenderness for something going wrong,
There's an ache tied to the word home she's been learning to define,
Drawing maps of safety with her own two hands and time,
She built her warmth from what was missing at the root,
And what she grew from hollow ground still managed to bear fruit,

[PreChorus]
She was built from contradiction and grace,
Fire in her bones and water in her gaze,
She carries what is broken like it's made of something rare,
And she's braver than she's ever been aware,

[Chorus]
Malia, you were written in a language all your own,
Every scar you've tried to hide is how your light has grown,
The universe composed you with a careful, knowing hand,
Malia, you are deeper than the world could understand,
You don't have to earn your place, you've always had a right,
You were mapped into the heavens long before your very first night,

[Verse 3]
Her mind moves like a river with a hundred different streams,
Collecting every question, weaving stories into seams,
She thinks in color, speaks in rhythm, feels before she knows,
And she's the kind of person that the whole room gravitates toward,
She's dreamed of something greater and she's doubted if she's meant,
To hold a calling wide enough to match her own intent,
But the world she's quietly building one true act at a time,
Is already the answer to the purpose she can't find,

[PreChorus]
She was built from contradiction and grace,
Fire in her bones and water in her gaze,
She carries what is broken like it's made of something rare,
And she's braver than she's ever been aware,

[Chorus]
Malia, you were written in a language all your own,
Every scar you've tried to hide is how your light has grown,
The universe composed you with a careful, knowing hand,
Malia, you are deeper than the world could understand,
You don't have to earn your place, you've always had a right,
You were mapped into the heavens long before your very first night,

[Bridge]
You've been trying to hold it all together for so long,
Convinced that falling quiet meant that something had gone wrong,
But the ocean doesn't apologize for every wave it makes,
And the moon doesn't beg permission for the light she gives and takes,
You are allowed to rest inside the story you've become,
You have always been arriving, you have always been enough,

[Outro]
The stars that wrote you knew exactly what they made,
A soul that goes on glowing long after the noise has faded,
Keep going, keep becoming, keep the wonder burning true,
The most remarkable thing about the sky is that it chose you,
