Prompt / Lyrics
VERSE 1 The tide rose quiet, like it knew my name. Cold hands on my ribs, testing where I’d break. I let it climb higher, didn’t move an inch. If the sea wants to take me, it’s gotta earn the win. VERSE 2 Salt in my lungs, but I’m still breathing slow. Every wave hits harder, but I don’t let it show. Pressure on my chest like a vow I never made. I’m not dying in the deep just because it’s where I stayed. CHORUS I won’t sink, I won’t fold, I won’t give this up. If the water wants me gone, it’s gonna need more luck. I’ve been dragged to the bottom, but I rise enough. Let the ocean try again — I’m still tough. Salt in my lungs, but I’m not giving up. VERSE 3 I’ve swallowed storms that would’ve split a weaker spine. I’ve been dragged under by the things I called mine. But I learned the rhythm of the pull and the pain. Now I rise with the current that once carried me away. VERSE 4 Let the water circle, let it whisper threats. I’ve lived through worse than drowning, I’m not finished yet. My heartbeat echoes like a flare beneath the blue. If the ocean wants a body, it won’t be mine it chews. VERSE 5 So here I stand, half‑broken, half‑reborn. Salt‑bitten skin, but a will that’s weather‑worn. I’ll walk out dripping, but I’ll walk out alive. The sea can take its shot — I refuse to die.
