Shallow

## Verse 1

Corroded with time, still heavy enough

To hold me under your shallow waters

Constantly expanding outward

Never staying still, won't ever get that deep

So the pain in my brain remains mine

Controls my step, why do you still

Pull me in even when I'm trying to leave?

Shallow waters, wishing for the deep

## Hook

Shallow waters holding me under

Still keeping it inside so you can't see

Vision fading, eyes fogging over

Praying soon I can find release

But these waters I've been waiting

Are too shallow to give me peace

## Verse 2

Time corrodes but the weight won't fade

Heavy on my chest, feeling afraid

Expanding out but never down deep

In these shallow waters, promises I can't keep

You pull me back when I try to rise

Keep me trapped beneath these lies

Staying still in this endless fight

Shallow end, but I'm losing sight

## Hook

I'm drowning in these shallow waters

Can't find my way to something deeper

Every step you control like a master

Pain in my brain, it's my keeper

## Bridge

Why do you still...

Pull me in when I'm trying to heal?

Shallow waters, but the pain is real

Wishing for the deep, something I can feel

## Outro (Freestyle)

Corroded with time, still heavy enough

In these shallow waters, calling your bluff

Constantly expanding, never staying still

Shallow waters, but I'm climbing uphill

Syllables spilling like water cascading

Mind overflowing, consciousness fading

Intricate patterns weaving through the pain

Articulating thoughts that I can't contain

Sophisticated syllables saturating the scene

Penetrating deeper than I've ever been

Calculating every breath, every bar, every beat

Navigating through the chaos, finding my feet

Illuminating darkness with lyrical light

Amplifying emotions, bringing insight

Complicated feelings, simple truth lllls revealed

Medicated thoughts, but the wounds ain't healed

Dedicated to the craft, elevated state

Concentrated energy, I won't hesitate

Complicated rhythms, syncopated flow

Elevated consciousness, letting you know

These shallow waters tried to hold me down

But sophisticated wordplay turned it to ground
