I feel my feet kick off the ground,

A gentle push up, not to be drowned.

Total silence at this bottom end,

While Archimedes helps me ascend.

I barely gulp some oxygen,

Too much pressure in this dungeon.

Complete darkness all around me,

Even my own bubbles I cannot see.


[Chorus]

I am rising, a bit anxious,

Moving up, I am suspicious.

But skyward clarity lifts my spirit,

Powerful thrust to which I commit.


Face up, back down in dark waters,

I am rising towards what matters.

Outside’s echoes strangely muffled,

As I rush up to the surface, scuffled.

Air grows rich and my lungs expand,

While the pressure recesses and my pulse stand.

The sky is a faint halo of light,

As I keep soaring with all my might.


[Chorus]

I am rising, a bit anxious,

Moving up, I am suspicious.

But skyward clarity lifts my spirit,

Powerful thrust to which I commit.


Moving faster toward warm embrace,

Like a zoom in on a smiling face.

Ocean whispers turn into song,

And I feel the place where I belong.

Tank and mask delivering air,

My heartbeat dances, I swear.

The Sun piercing in rays of gold,

I’m letting go of the weight I hold.


[Chorus]

I am rising, a bit anxious,

Moving up, I am suspicious.

But skyward clarity lifts my spirit,

Powerful thrust to which I commit.


Sudden exit, my head breaks through,

Water releasing its hold, it’s true.

Sound returns in a wavy chorus,

Making my heart more able to focus.

I let go of my mask in an exhale,

I sip fresh air and let it trail.

The sunlight sparkles on the surface,

I tilt and let it warm up my face.


Vastness of the ocean as far as the eye can see,

I can take any direction, I am completely free.

So warm and light, I just feel alive,

I am roaring to the sky, engaging in overdrive.

You can keep your help to lift me higher,

I have carried my weight and found my own fire.
