[Verse 1]
There's a current underneath the still you show the world,
A depth that most will never reach, a tide that stays unfurled.
You read the room before you speak, you feel what can't be said,
You carry all the weight of what's unspoken in your head.
They see composure, they don't see the ocean underneath,
Every truth you've ever swallowed just to give the room relief.

[PreChorus]
But the deep is not your burden, it's the place where you were made,
Every layer holds a lantern, you were never meant to fade.

[Chorus]
You are ancient, you are tidal, you are more than you've been told,
There's a fire in the stillness and a story to unfold.
The cosmos wrote you carefully with ink that doesn't lie,
You were built to move through darkness and return to your own light.

[Verse 2]
You love like something consecrated, total and profound,
You give yourself completely when you let someone come around.
But the door has had its deadbolts, and the walls have had their years,
Every scar earned in the trusting, every fortress built from tears.
That's not damage, that's devotion turned inward for a while,
It's a heart so full of knowing it forgot its own exile.

[PreChorus]
You were never too much — you were too real for shallow ground,
And the ones who stayed beside you are the ones who heard the sound.

[Chorus]
You are ancient, you are tidal, you are more than you've been told,
There's a fire in the stillness and a story to unfold.
The cosmos wrote you carefully with ink that doesn't lie,
You were built to move through darkness and return to your own light.

[Verse 3]
You've worked so hard to prove the worth that always lived inside,
Chased the recognition like a lamp you couldn't find.
But the world has always felt you even when it couldn't name,
What it was that pulled them closer, what it was that made you flame.
Now a new wind shifts the sky and something bold begins to stir,
All the vision you've been holding finally knows what it's here for.

[PreChorus]
You don't have to earn your place here, you were placed here with intention,
Every scar became a compass, every wound became direction.

[Chorus]
You are ancient, you are tidal, you are more than you've been told,
There's a fire in the stillness and a story to unfold.
The cosmos wrote you carefully with ink that doesn't lie,
You were built to move through darkness and return to your own light.

[Bridge]
Let the deep run where it's needed, let the quiet speak its truth,
You are standing at a threshold built from everything you've moved through.
The sky is leaning toward you like it always knew your name,
You are guided, you are grounded, you were never once the same.

[Outro]
So rest inside the knowing that you've always been enough,
The tide returns without explaining, and so, beloved, do you.
