[Verse 1]
There's an ocean in him nobody sees from the shore,
A tide that runs quiet but carries so much more,
He tends to every heart around him, steady and sure,
While his own deeper waters stay hidden, kept pure,
He built himself slowly from discipline and stone,
A man who learned early to carry things alone,

[PreChorus]
But the weight that he carries is proof of his grace,
There's a quiet kind of courage written all over his face,

[Chorus]
Max, you are deeper than the words ever say,
A tide that has shaped every stone in its way,
The world has been watching and doesn't know why,
It's because you were written by something divine,

[Verse 2]
His mind moves like lightning through questions unasked,
He sees through the surface and what lies beneath last,
A thinker who'd rather uncover the truth,
Than settle for easy since the days of his youth,
He speaks and the room finds a reason to lean in,
There's a warmth in his words like the tide coming in,

[PreChorus]
The restlessness in him was never a flaw,
It was freedom insisting on breaking the law,

[Chorus]
Max, you are deeper than the words ever say,
A tide that has shaped every stone in its way,
The world has been watching and doesn't know why,
It's because you were written by something divine,

[Verse 3]
He loves with precision, in gestures that last,
In small things remembered, in shadows he's cast,
He doesn't arrive with declarations and fire,
He arrives with his presence, steady and higher,
He's longed for connection as deep as the sea,
And learned that real love is a place to be free,

[PreChorus]
He's carried the bruise of belonging alone,
But every ache taught him the way to come home,

[Chorus]
Max, you are deeper than the words ever say,
A tide that has shaped every stone in its way,
The world has been watching and doesn't know why,
It's because you were written by something divine,

[Verse 4]
The path that he walked wasn't easy or straight,
He built his whole legacy bearing the weight,
But every slow climb was a lesson well-earned,
And every door opened was a corner well-turned,
He never needed the thunder to know his own worth,
He was mapped by the heavens long before his first breath,

[PreChorus]
He doesn't have to prove what was already true,
The light that he carries was always there shining through,

[Chorus]
Max, you are deeper than the words ever say,
A tide that has shaped every stone in its way,
The world has been watching and doesn't know why,
It's because you were written by something divine,

[Bridge]
The cosmos laid careful hands on the man that you are,
Every road that was winding was still led by a star,
You are rooted in something no season erodes,
And the best of you, always, was woven in gold,

[Outro]
So rest in the knowing you've always been enough,
Max, you were made of the gentlest and toughest of stuff,
The tides may have tested the shape of your shore,
But they only revealed what was worth keeping for,
