[Verse 1]
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those currents you've been running deep inside,
A mind built like architecture, clean and true,
But there's a wildfire underneath the cool in you,
You've carried weight in silence, made it look like grace,
An ancient kind of knowing written on your face

[PreChorus]
You've built your worth from bedrock, stone by stone,
But even the mountain needs to rest, you're not alone

[Chorus]
You are the still water and the distant flame,
The one who holds the world together, bears no blame,
You don't have to earn the right to take up space,
You were written in the cosmos, you're already in the right place

[Verse 2]
You love like something wide and honest, free and tall,
You need the open horizon or you don't love at all,
But deep beneath that freedom lives a hunger for the real,
For someone who can match the depths of everything you feel,
You give before you're asked, you light the room and leave,
And carry home the longing that you never quite believe

[PreChorus]
You've turned so many wounds into a quiet kind of art,
That's not a broken pattern, that's the language of your heart

[Chorus]
You are the still water and the distant flame,
The one who holds the world together, bears no blame,
You don't have to earn the right to take up space,
You were written in the cosmos, you're already in the right place

[Verse 3]
You think in blueprints, long and deep and wide,
You've mapped the truth of things that others barely try,
A hunger for the meaning hidden past the known,
You'd cross the world for wisdom and still find your way home,
That mind of yours is medicine, it cuts through what is fake,
You speak with quiet thunder and the room begins to shake

[PreChorus]
You've spent so long behind the scenes, tending other lives,
But the light you give to everyone is one that never dies

[Chorus]
You are the still water and the distant flame,
The one who holds the world together, bears no blame,
You don't have to earn the right to take up space,
You were written in the cosmos, you're already in the right place

[Verse 4]
There's a version of you that the world is waiting on,
The one who stopped proving and just let herself belong,
You've always been the answer to the question you've been asking,
You are enough at rest, enough without the masking,
The stars did not place you here to shrink or disappear,
They wrote you with intention — every scar, every year

[PreChorus]
So let the tide come in, let the deep things finally show,
What you've been holding quietly is ready now to grow

[Bridge]
The universe has mapped your path in ink that never fades,
You are the light that built itself through all the darker days,
Your presence is a compass that the people near you feel,
You are not almost enough — you are entirely real

[Outro]
Still water, distant fire, rooted and free,
The cosmos wrote you carefully — let yourself be,
You are held, you are seen, you are enough as you are,
You were never lost — you were always the star
