[Verse 1]
There's an ocean underneath the words you say,
A tide of feeling you've learned to tuck away,
You speak in metaphors, you dream in shades of blue,
The world sees the surface but misses all of you,
You carry everyone's sorrow like it's something you owe,
And quietly tend to the garden while the wild things grow

[PreChorus]
But the depth in you isn't a burden to bear,
It's the reason the right ones will always stop there

[Chorus]
You are water finding every crack and stone,
You are ancient in your knowing, never truly alone,
The tide pulls back but it always finds the shore,
You were made for more than proving you are more

[Verse 2]
You learned early how to earn your place in the room,
How to carry yourself through the weight and the doubt,
But that quiet resolve, that slow-burning flame,
It built something solid that no one can take away,
You move with a purpose like roots finding ground,
Still and deliberate, the most faithful sound

[PreChorus]
What looked like caution was wisdom in disguise,
The long way around can still lead you to the rise

[Chorus]
You are water finding every crack and stone,
You are ancient in your knowing, never truly alone,
The tide pulls back but it always finds the shore,
You were made for more than proving you are more

[Verse 3]
You love like something vast and hard to name,
A sacred kind of giving with no thought of claim,
You see the hidden good in everyone you meet,
You offer up your warmth before they feel the sleet,
And yes, you've lost yourself in someone else's sea,
But that tenderness was never weakness — it was poetry

[PreChorus]
The love you give deserves to circle back to you,
You are worthy of the grace you always travel through

[Chorus]
You are water finding every crack and stone,
You are ancient in your knowing, never truly alone,
The tide pulls back but it always finds the shore,
You were made for more than proving you are more

[Verse 4]
There's a compass in your chest that points toward the true,
Toward the world made better and the work only you do,
You've wondered if your presence leaves a mark on this place,
It does — like light through water, like a hand on a face,
The ones who feel like outsiders always carry the key,
You belong to every circle and you always run free

[PreChorus]
The cosmos didn't write you carelessly, not once,
Every scar became a lantern, every question a compass

[Bridge]
You don't have to earn the sky — it was already yours,
Let the dreamer and the builder rest behind equal doors,
You are held by something older than the names you've been given,
Every part of you, the hidden and the seen, worth living

[Outro]
Still water, deep current, soft light on the tide,
You are enough — you were always enough inside,
The moon wrote you carefully, and the stars know your name,
You were never lost — you were always on your way
