[Verse 1]
There's a tide inside you nobody gets to see,
A current running fathoms deep beneath your easy ease,
You lead with fire, chest first, before the world can blink,
But pull back to the quiet place where only you can think,
You carry other people's grief like it belongs to you,
And tend to every wounded thing while hiding what you're going through

[PreChorus]
They see the warmth, they don't see the weight you bear alone,
But every depth you've swallowed whole has made you more at home

[Chorus]
Maitreya, you were written in the oldest light,
A keeper of the deep end and a fire in the night,
You don't need to be the shore for everyone to land,
You are the whole ocean, not just someone's steady hand

[Verse 2]
Your mind moves fast, a dozen doors all open at once,
Weaving words like silver thread through silences and stunts,
You've learned to laugh through storms that most would never name,
And build a home inside your heart when nothing looks the same,
You've held your tongue when you should roar, and roared when silence won,
Every contradiction in you shines just like a second sun

[PreChorus]
You've carried silence like a stone and called it discipline,
But that's not emptiness — that's where your wisdom has always been

[Chorus]
Maitreya, you were written in the oldest light,
A keeper of the deep end and a fire in the night,
You don't need to be the shore for everyone to land,
You are the whole ocean, not just someone's steady hand

[Verse 3]
You love like something ancient that refuses to grow thin,
A conversation, a glance, a joke — and then you let them in,
But you've lost yourself in mirrors made of someone else's need,
Given roots away like offerings when your own were left to bleed,
The world has taken freely from the well you never name,
It's time to know that filling it is not a source of shame

[PreChorus]
The cosmos didn't carve you out just to pour you hollow dry,
You were made to hold your own tides underneath a Pisces sky

[Chorus]
Maitreya, you were written in the oldest light,
A keeper of the deep end and a fire in the night,
You don't need to be the shore for everyone to land,
You are the whole ocean, not just someone's steady hand

[Bridge]
What you carry isn't burden — it's the blueprint of your gift,
Every scar became a compass, every fracture made a shift,
The path was never straight but it was always leading true,
The world needs what you're holding, and that world begins with you

[Outro]
So rest here in the knowing, let the current finally still,
You are guided, you are grounded, and you always have been — and always will
