[Verse 1]
There's an ocean underneath the calm they see,
Currents running deep where no one else can be,
A mind that catches fire before the words catch up,
A heart so full of wonder it can overflow the cup,
You carry what you feel like tides beneath the moon,
A universe of knowing in a quiet afternoon

[PreChorus]
They see the surface, they don't see the pull,
They don't know how completely you are full

[Chorus]
Written in the water, written in the flame,
Every layer of you is worthy, none of it is shame,
The depths that make you different are the depths that make you real,
You were made to move like oceans, you were made to love and feel

[Verse 2]
You give before they ask and love before they know,
You see the best in people even when it doesn't show,
There's a place inside the silence where you carry it alone,
The weight of being sensitive in a world made out of stone,
But every burden that you've held has only made you wise,
Every wave you've weathered lives as starlight in your eyes

[PreChorus]
You were never too much, never hard to bear,
You were just too rare for everyone to see you there

[Chorus]
Written in the water, written in the flame,
Every layer of you is worthy, none of it is shame,
The depths that make you different are the depths that make you real,
You were made to move like oceans, you were made to love and feel

[Verse 3]
There's a compass pointing forward through the questions and the doubt,
A fire learning when to burn and when to slowly burn it out,
You've been told to make yourself a little easier to hold,
But the truest version of you was never meant to be controlled,
The world needs what you carry in the places no one sees,
The ones who change the tide are always born beside the sea

[PreChorus]
You don't have to shrink to fit the space you're given,
You were always whole, you were always driven

[Chorus]
Written in the water, written in the flame,
Every layer of you is worthy, none of it is shame,
The depths that make you different are the depths that make you real,
You were made to move like oceans, you were made to love and feel

[Bridge]
The cosmos wrote you carefully with ink that doesn't fade,
Every contradiction in you is the masterpiece they made,
You are held inside the stillness and the storm alike,
You are guided, you are grounded, you are finally alright

[Outro]
So rest inside the knowing you were always enough,
The stars have always seen you and they've always called your bluff,
You are made of depth and wonder, you are made of ancient light
