[Verse 1]
There's an ocean underneath the calm you show the room,
A Cancer tide that pulls and holds beneath a Pisces moon,
You feel the weight of everyone before they speak a word,
You carry what was never yours and call it being heard,
The roots go deep, the early ground was tangled, hard, and long,
But everything you grew through made the soil of who you are strong

[PreChorus]
They see the surface, they don't see the sea,
All those fathoms of feeling no one else can reach

[Chorus]
You are ancient water finding its way,
You are the tide that comes back every day,
The depth in you is not a burden to bear,
It is the rarest thing — and it is yours to wear

[Verse 2]
You love like something already decided, whole and true,
You dive in with your whole heart before the world can catch up to you,
But guarding it comes easy when the trust has cost you much,
That wall you built around your worth is just a gentler touch,
You give before you're asked and still you wonder if it's enough,
But love that keeps on showing up like that — that's not weakness, that's tough

[PreChorus]
They see the giving, they don't see the ache,
All that tending to the world while you learn to take

[Chorus]
You are ancient water finding its way,
You are the tide that comes back every day,
The depth in you is not a burden to bear,
It is the rarest thing — and it is yours to wear

[Verse 3]
Your mind runs far ahead, through philosophies and skies,
You've always seen past surfaces and never stopped to ask why,
The world you want to build lives in the blueprint of your thought,
You've served with quiet power for approval you were never taught,
Let success wear your face now, not the face of someone's praise,
The compass has been yours to hold through all of it — always

[PreChorus]
They see the effort, they don't see the call,
That quiet authority that rises through it all

[Chorus]
You are ancient water finding its way,
You are the tide that comes back every day,
The depth in you is not a burden to bear,
It is the rarest thing — and it is yours to wear

[Bridge]
Something is shifting like light through a door left ajar,
The healing you've been reaching for was never very far,
You don't have to earn the right to rest inside your skin,
The universe wrote you carefully — and meant every bit of it

[Outro]
You are guided, you are held, you are enough,
The tide always returns, and so do you — and you are loved
