[Verse 1]
There's a current running under everything she shows,
Still waters at the surface, but a tide nobody knows
She reads between the silences, sees what words conceal,
A mind that maps the world in search of something real
She carries what she's learned like stones worn soft by rain,
And what they call intensity is just the depth of her flame

[PreChorus]
She feels the pull between the open and the sealed,
Between the life she's living and the one she hasn't revealed

[Chorus]
Aliyah, you were written in the deep and in the light,
A full moon burning steady on the darkest kind of night
You don't have to choose between the softness and the fire,
You were made from both the longing and the reaching higher

[Verse 2]
She loves like something ancient, like a root beneath the snow,
Like harmony she's tending so the ones she holds can grow
She wants connection that is real enough to keep,
Not the kind that skims the surface but the kind that runs deep
Sometimes she holds her joy at arm's length, waits to feel it's earned,
But every dream she's carried in the quiet has returned

[PreChorus]
She's learning that her radiance was never hers to earn,
That the light she keeps on giving is a light she can return

[Chorus]
Aliyah, you were written in the deep and in the light,
A full moon burning steady on the darkest kind of night
You don't have to choose between the softness and the fire,
You were made from both the longing and the reaching higher

[Verse 3]
She's drawn to where the questions live, beyond the mapped terrain,
Where meaning hides in mystery and beauty walks with pain
Her spirit moves like weather—it refuses to stand still,
There's a compass in her chest that pulls her forward when she will
She gives before she's asked to, holds the room without a sound,
She's the kind of quiet anchor that keeps everyone else ground

[PreChorus]
She's not lost inside the searching or the questions left unsolved,
She's becoming who she always was, unfolding, being whole

[Chorus]
Aliyah, you were written in the deep and in the light,
A full moon burning steady on the darkest kind of night
You don't have to choose between the softness and the fire,
You were made from both the longing and the reaching higher

[Bridge]
The cosmos didn't scatter you by chance across the sky,
Every contradiction was a gift they placed inside
You are held inside a story that was carefully designed,
A soul like yours takes lifetimes just to fully come alive

[Outro]
The tide will always carry you back home,
You were never, not for one breath, on your own
The stars that wrote you knew exactly what they made,
And what they made in you will never, ever fade
