[Verse 1]
There's a current underneath the surface, still and wide,
Something ancient moving through you like a tide,
You read the room before you've crossed the door,
You see the truth in people they don't show anymore,
You carry questions like a lantern through the dark,
A hunger for the meaning, for the map, for the mark,
And somewhere in the distance there's a horizon you've chased,
Like the whole world is a classroom and you can't be replaced

[PreChorus]
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those oceans you've learned how to hide,
But there's a light in you that even shadows know,
Something they can't name, but they always feel it glow

[Chorus]
You were written in the deep,
You were carved before the sky turned steep,
Every question, every ache, every open door,
Was the cosmos building something worth living for,
You don't have to earn the right to take up space,
You were always meant to be in this time and place,
Every layer, every scar, every high and low,
You are whole, you are held, more than you know

[Verse 2]
You love like something fated, like it costs you everything,
You don't do halfway, you go all in,
You've built a few walls that no one else could see,
Not to keep love out, but to protect what lives in deep,
You've given yourself quietly, completely, to the few,
Who proved themselves worthy of the rarest parts of you,
And when you feel uncertain in the middle of the night,
You forget that every scar you carry is the evidence of light

[PreChorus]
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those oceans you've learned how to hide,
But there's a light in you that even shadows know,
Something they can't name, but they always feel it glow

[Chorus]
You were written in the deep,
You were carved before the sky turned steep,
Every question, every ache, every open door,
Was the cosmos building something worth living for,
You don't have to earn the right to take up space,
You were always meant to be in this time and place,
Every layer, every scar, every high and low,
You are whole, you are held, more than you know

[Verse 3]
There's a part of you that wonders if your worth is real,
If the ground beneath your feet is something you can feel,
You've measured yourself harder than you'd measure anyone,
Held yourself to standards that can never quite be done,
But the way you think is rare, it cuts through to the bone,
A mind that finds the signal in the static and the storm,
And the vision that you carry for a world that could be more,
That's not a burden, love, that's what you were made for

[PreChorus]
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those oceans you've learned how to hide,
But there's a light in you that even shadows know,
Something they can't name, but they always feel it glow

[Chorus]
You were written in the deep,
You were carved before the sky turned steep,
Every question, every ache, every open door,
Was the cosmos building something worth living for,
You don't have to earn the right to take up space,
You were always meant to be in this time and place,
Every layer, every scar, every high and low,
You are whole, you are held, more than you know

[Bridge]
You don't have to be unbroken to be beautiful and true,
The world you're reaching toward has been reaching back for you,
Let the searching be enough, let the depth be your home,
There is nothing in your nature you were meant to face alone,
The fire in you is faithful, it has carried you this far,
And the sky that made you different knows exactly what you are

[Outro]
So rest inside the knowing, let the proving fall away,
You are not behind, you have never lost your way,
Everything you've carried was already who you are,
You were written in the deep long before the very first star
