[Verse 1]
There's a stillness at the surface, deep water underneath,
A garden always growing what the outside eye can't see,
You move through every room like you belong to somewhere else,
Carrying the weight of everyone before you carry yourself,
They call you calm, they see the meadow, not the undertow,
But there's a whole ocean in you that they'll never fully know

[PreChorus]
You've been pouring light into the dark for so long,
Learning how to trust that you were never doing it wrong

[Chorus]
You are rooted in the earth and held up by the tide,
You are wider than the story that you've kept tucked inside,
The quiet ones who feel it all are not the ones who break,
You were always enough, you just forgot to take

[Verse 2]
Your mind moves like a fire before the match has cooled,
Ideas that arrive in flashes, breaking every rule,
You've tried to slow it down, to make your thoughts more neat and plain,
But that restless brilliance in you is exactly why you came,
You've stood at love's edge wondering if you were worth the leap,
Building careful bridges from the tenderness you keep

[PreChorus]
You've mistaken all your softness for a place you could be hurt,
But that sensitivity was never something broken, never cursed

[Chorus]
You are rooted in the earth and held up by the tide,
You are wider than the story that you've kept tucked inside,
The quiet ones who feel it all are not the ones who break,
You were always enough, you just forgot to take

[Verse 3]
You love like a long conversation by an open window,
You love like the first word of a sentence only you can finish,
You need someone who meets you in the questions, not the answers,
Who understands your silence like a language, not a distance,
And you've given more than most without a single word of asking,
Always holding others whole while you were quietly fracturing

[PreChorus]
But something in you knows now what you're slowly walking toward,
A version of yourself you haven't needed to perform

[Chorus]
You are rooted in the earth and held up by the tide,
You are wider than the story that you've kept tucked inside,
The quiet ones who feel it all are not the ones who break,
You were always enough, you just forgot to take

[Verse 4]
There's a purpose in the way you see what others overlook,
In the healing that you carry like a dog-eared, worn-in book,
You weren't built for small rooms or a life that doesn't matter,
You were made to mend the places where the world has started to scatter,
And the stars that wrote you into being didn't make a single error,
Every contradiction in you just makes the picture clearer

[PreChorus]
This is where the tide turns and the light begins to land,
Where you finally let yourself be held by your own hand

[Bridge]
Let the ocean in you settle, let the roots go deeper still,
You don't have to earn the morning or the way the light can fill,
What was wounded made you wiser, what was lost returned as grace,
You were always being guided to this moment, to this place

[Outro]
You are rooted, you are tended, you are known,
The cosmos wrote you carefully — you were never alone
