[Verse 1]
There's an ocean underneath the quiet you wear,
A world so full of feeling you don't know how to share,
You move like water finding cracks through solid ground,
A dreamer with a compass always spinning around,
You feel everything before the words arrive,
That's not a weakness — that's how deep things come alive.

[PreChorus]
They see the steady surface, calm and wide,
They don't see every current pulling with the tide.

[Chorus]
You are rooted like the earth beneath the sea,
Built from everything you've carried, everything you've been,
Every tide that wore you down just shaped the stone,
You were made for more than you have ever been shown.

[Verse 2]
You love like something ancient, slow, and sure,
Not the kind of love that shouts — the kind that endures,
You'd rather build a shelter than to say the words,
So your devotion lives in everything that's heard,
But underneath the walls you've learned so well to keep,
Is a heart that only wants to love somebody deep.

[PreChorus]
You've wondered if your worth could stand on its own ground,
Searching all your life for what was never lost, just found.

[Chorus]
You are rooted like the earth beneath the sea,
Built from everything you've carried, everything you've been,
Every tide that wore you down just shaped the stone,
You were made for more than you have ever been shown.

[Verse 3]
There's a fire in your vision, big and wide,
A hunger for the meaning that you carry deep inside,
You've wrestled between the calling and the cost,
Between the man you're building and the boy you thought was lost,
But every doubt you've ever fought has made you more refined,
The ones who've walked through fire always leave a light behind.

[PreChorus]
The world is still becoming what your dreaming helped create,
And everything you're growing toward was never, ever late.

[Chorus]
You are rooted like the earth beneath the sea,
Built from everything you've carried, everything you've been,
Every tide that wore you down just shaped the stone,
You were made for more than you have ever been shown.

[Bridge]
The stars that wrote you didn't make a rough draft,
They mapped you out in full before your very first breath,
So lay the proving down and let yourself just be,
You are already whole — you are already free.

[Outro]
The ground beneath you holds what you can't always feel,
Everything you are is true, and everything is real,
Rest in who you've always been — the tide knows its way home.
