Lyrics
Yeah… still breathing down here.
Pressure never broke me, it just made me clearer.
They tryna keep me underground
Just below sea level
They tryna keep me underground
Just below sea level
They tryna keep me where the current bites,
But I breathe deep - salt feeds the fight.
Pressure on me? That’s just height,
I rise slow, turn dark to light.
No king yet, but I bear the weight,
Dreams so big they reverberate.
Can’t cage the tide, can’t legislate,
Every fall I take recalibrates.
They want me quiet, but my pulse too loud,
Built from the soil, I'll break through cloud.
Still below sea level — proud,
Whole damn ocean can’t drag me down.
I was made for the deep, for the cold, for the sound,
Every scar that I keep is a jewel I found.
They can flood my lungs, I still won’t drown -
Every fall just crowns me now.
They tryna keep me underground
Just below sea level
They tryna keep me underground
Just below sea level
Mud on my name but it turns to clay,
Shape my pain into what I say.
Life hits hard, but I hold firm,
Learned the waves, now the waves learn.
Years fade but I still resound,
Lost my fear when I lost the crowd.
You can’t sink roots when you roam around
So I built my home in the underground.
Let the waves break hard, let the storm get loud,
I’ve been forged in the dark where no one’s allowed.
Every doubt they gave, I wore like a shroud,
Now I’m back from the depths, unbowed.
I was made for the deep, for the cold, for the sound,
Every scar that I keep is a jewel I found.
They can flood my lungs, I still won’t drown
Every fall just crowns me now.
They tryna keep me underground
Just below sea level
They tryna keep me underground
Just below sea level
They threw stones, I built a reef,
Turned their doubt to my belief.
Every loss just fed my teeth,
I bit the dark and found relief.
Now the tide don’t speak for me,
I'm calm in the insanity.
Pressure tried to cancel me
Still I rise from the gravity
I was made for the deep, for the cold, for the sound,
Every scar that I keep is a jewel I found.
They can pull me down, but I've made my crown
Cause Jewels are only formed underground
They tryna keep me underground
Just below sea level
They tryna keep me underground
Just below sea level
Still below sea level.
But I rise.
Still below sea level.
But I rise
