[Verse 1]
The world sees the mountain, composed and unmoved,
A capable silence, a woman who's proved.
But underneath granite there's a tide running deep,
A heart full of caring too tender for sleep.
You hold what you love the way water holds land,
With quiet persistence, with an open hand.

[Pre-Chorus]
What if the armor was always the door?
What if the weight that you've carried was more?

[Chorus]
You were made in the season the world goes within,
Where the surface stays still but the current begins.
You were never the mountain — you were always the sea,
Depth upon depth upon depth, moving free.
And the ones who have found you past all the reserve
Have touched something the easy world doesn't deserve.

[Verse 2]
You've loved like a prayer said quietly alone,
Offered the whole of yourself, sometimes a stone.
The wound in you whispers you never got it right,
But the ache that you carry is also the light.
Every love that unmade you was quietly a door —
You were always worth so much more.

[Pre-Chorus]
Not despite what you've lost, but because of the cost —
Every door that closed on you opened a floor.

[Chorus]
You were made in the season the world goes within,
Where the surface stays still but the current begins.
You were never the mountain — you were always the sea,
Depth upon depth upon depth, moving free.
And the ones who have found you past all the reserve
Have touched something the easy world doesn't deserve.

[Verse 3]
There's a fire in you that you've never let run,
A radiance held back till the work was all done.
But the stars didn't make you to only give form —
You're becoming the calm on the far side of storm.
The one who was worthy of being fully seen,
Not just what you've carried — but all that you mean.

[Pre-Chorus]
The discipline held you — now let it release.
What you've earned isn't striving, it's finally peace.

[Chorus]
You were made in the season the world goes within,
Where the surface stays still but the current begins.
You were never the mountain — you were always the sea,
Depth upon depth upon depth, moving free.
And the ones who have found you past all the reserve
Have touched something the easy world doesn't deserve.

[Bridge]
There's a chapter ahead that doesn't ask you to prove,
Where the love that you give finds an equal return,
Where the light you've kept hidden is finally allowed to burn.
You spent so long being what everyone needed to lean —
Now the universe is asking: what does it mean
To be loved in the daylight, not just in the deep?

[Chorus]
You were made in the season the world goes within,
Where the surface stays still but the current begins.
You were never the mountain — you were always the sea,
Depth upon depth upon depth, moving free.
And the ones who have found you past all the reserve
Have touched something the easy world doesn't deserve.

[Outro]
The tide doesn't ask for permission to move.
You've always known how — now the knowing is yours.
Not the keeper of everyone. Finally, the shore.
