[Verse 1]
There's a tide inside that nobody sees running,
A quiet kind of depth that keeps the surface humming,
You feel everything before the words arrive,
A whole ocean moving, just to keep one fire alive,
They see the calm, they don't see what it cost,
All the feeling you've carried, never counting the loss,

[PreChorus]
But the current that runs through you isn't a burden to bear,
It's the reason every room feels different when you're there,

[Chorus]
Alexis, you were written in the water and the light,
A soul that holds the storm and still comes out right,
The world doesn't always see what lives beneath the waves,
But you were always worth it, every single one of your days,

[Verse 2]
You sort through the chaos like it's something sacred,
Every feeling filed away until you're ready to face it,
You love like a conversation that never wants to end,
Curious and open, a stranger becomes a friend,
But you've stood at the edge of your own belonging,
Wondering if the place you fit was worth the longing,

[PreChorus]
Still you show up with your arms full and your doubts left at the door,
That's not weakness, that's a kind of grace the world is hungry for,

[Chorus]
Alexis, you were written in the water and the light,
A soul that holds the storm and still comes out right,
The world doesn't always see what lives beneath the waves,
But you were always worth it, every single one of your days,

[Verse 3]
You learned early how to make yourself smaller,
To give before you'd ask, to catch the ones who'd fall before,
The roots run deep and tangled, yes, but look at what they grew,
Every family pattern you've faced made something new in you,
You've alchemized the hardest things into a quiet kind of gold,
And the strength you think you're hiding is the most courageous part of your soul,

[PreChorus]
You don't have to earn the right to rest or take up all your space,
The light in you was never meant to stay behind a borrowed face,

[Chorus]
Alexis, you were written in the water and the light,
A soul that holds the storm and still comes out right,
The world doesn't always see what lives beneath the waves,
But you were always worth it, every single one of your days,

[Verse 4]
You're being called somewhere wider than what used to feel like home,
Toward something truer, something bigger, somewhere you can roam,
Your mind was made for meaning, for the sacred and the wide,
For the kind of knowing that comes only from the long ride,
The path forward doesn't need you to be certain or complete,
Just to trust the voice inside you every time your old fears speak,

[PreChorus]
The cosmos wrote you carefully with ink that doesn't fade,
You are not an accident — you are the point of every plan that was made,

[Chorus]
Alexis, you were written in the water and the light,
A soul that holds the storm and still comes out right,
The world doesn't always see what lives beneath the waves,
But you were always worth it, every single one of your days,

[Bridge]
You don't need to be louder to be found,
Your quiet kind of power is the most profound,
Every scar became a story, every wound a well of grace,
You were always whole, just learning how to hold your own embrace,

[Outro]
The stars mapped you before you drew your first breath,
Guided, held, and loved — from your beginning to your depth,
You are enough, you always were, you always will remain,
Alexis, written in the light, and worthy of your name,
