[Verse 1]
She keeps a quiet world behind her eyes,
Still waters running deeper than the skies,
A patient kind of strength that holds its ground,
The kind of steady roots that can't be drowned,
She carries history like a hearthstone weight,
The family she came from woven through her fate,
And what they couldn't give her she learned to grow,
She built a warmth inside that very few will know

[PreChorus]
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those currents pulling deep inside,
A mind that turns each stone before it speaks,
And loves with everything it finds and keeps

[Chorus]
Erica, the cosmos wrote you carefully,
With ink that roots in earth and runs in open seas,
You are the ancient and the wild and the true,
The universe was patient when it made you,
Erica, you don't have to prove the light you hold,
It burns in everything you carry, every story told,
You are enough, you have always been enough,
Every tender place in you is where you find your love

[Verse 2]
She loves like she believes in something real,
Headfirst and honest with the way she feels,
A spark that doesn't wait to be invited in,
She gives her whole heart every time again,
But somewhere underneath that open flame,
She wonders if the ones she loves will stay the same,
She's learned to guard the door before it breaks,
And call it independence for her own heart's sake

[PreChorus]
But every wall she's built still has a window,
And every wound has taught her what she knows,
She's not afraid of love, she just loves deep,
The kind that asks for nothing while it gives everything

[Chorus]
Erica, the cosmos wrote you carefully,
With ink that roots in earth and runs in open seas,
You are the ancient and the wild and the true,
The universe was patient when it made you,
Erica, you don't have to prove the light you hold,
It burns in everything you carry, every story told,
You are enough, you have always been enough,
Every tender place in you is where you find your love

[Verse 3]
There's something in her that the world can't name,
A dreamer with a spine who stayed the same,
Through every cycle that stripped her bare and turned,
She rose again with everything she'd learned,
She questions systems and she questions power,
She blooms like something wild inside the hardest hour,
She's here to build a world that's more than what was told,
Her purpose is the legacy she's just beginning to hold

[PreChorus]
She carries what was broken into something new,
There's a compass pointing home inside her truth,
The stars aligned to carry her this far,
And everything she is, is written in her scars

[Chorus]
Erica, the cosmos wrote you carefully,
With ink that roots in earth and runs in open seas,
You are the ancient and the wild and the true,
The universe was patient when it made you,
Erica, you don't have to prove the light you hold,
It burns in everything you carry, every story told,
You are enough, you have always been enough,
Every tender place in you is where you find your love

[Bridge]
You don't need to hold the sky to matter here,
You don't need to be unbroken to be clear,
Every complicated thing that you have known,
Was just the universe refining all it's grown,
The world needs what you carry, don't give it away,
You were written in the heavens long before today

[Outro]
So rest inside the person that you've always been,
Every quiet depth, every fire kept within,
You are guided, you are held, you are enough,
You are loved exactly as you are, exactly as you are
