Deepwater Echo

[Verse 1]
The night wind carries the ocean's sigh, a familiar ache within.
I watch the moonlit currents glide, where lost hope once had been.
My griot heart remembers well, each tempest we have known.
The quiet strength, a whispered spell, from seeds our ancestors have sown.
A prayer like smoke upon the breeze, for respite from the fray.

[Chorus]
Oh, deepwater echo, calling out my name.
A bittersweet solace, through joy and through pain.
Still, the persistent light, burns through the cleansing rain.

[Verse 2]
Sometimes my spirit drifts adrift, like driftwood on the tide.
The heavy ache, a solemn gift, where quiet sorrows hide.
Yet, I recall a shared embrace, a strength that still endures.
A sacred rhythm, time and space, that every storm assures.
We cast our fears upon the waves, trusting the morning breaks.

[Bridge]
Even when the heavens weep, a cleansing downpour falls.
Our faith, an anchor, buried deep, beyond these broken walls.
We seek the verdant distant shore, a peace we understand.
A sanctuary found once more, built by God's own hand.

[Chorus]
Oh, deepwater echo, calling out my name!
A bittersweet solace, through joy and through pain!
Yes, the persistent light, burns through the cleansing rain!

[Outro]
Until dawn breaks, we'll watch and pray.
And trust the currents lead the way, to brighter day.
