[Intro] (layered synth textures building) Both: Vessel in motion... carrying the light... [Verse 1 — 8 bars] (Female) I am every version of myself I've ever been Carrying it forward, layer under skin Nothing that I've built gets left behind on the floor I move it all together, that's what a vessel's for Every piece of armor, every soft and sharpened part Traveling as one thing, one body, one heart This is how you carry weight and still look weightless This is how you hold the world and still stay faceless [Chorus] (Both, layered/harmonizing) Female: Vessel in motion, carrying it all Male: Every version answers to the call Both (unison): We are moving, we are more Than the sum of what we carried before Vessel in motion, built to hold Every story, every version of the bold Nothing left behind, nothing left unsaid This is how the whole thing moves ahead [Verse 2 — 8 bars] (Male) I used to think that strength meant carrying it alone Now I know a vessel's stronger when it's fully grown Every weight I picked up made the frame more sound This is how you carry heavy and still don't go down It's not about the armor, it's about the space inside Room enough for everything I used to have to hide This is what a vessel means when it's finally whole Carrying the body, carrying the soul [Chorus] (Both, layered/harmonizing) Female: Vessel in motion, carrying it all Male: Every version answers to the call Both (unison): We are moving, we are more Than the sum of what we carried before Vessel in motion, built to hold Every story, every version of the bold Nothing left behind, nothing left unsaid This is how the whole thing moves ahead [Bridge — 4 bars] (trading, building intensity) Male: Carrying it forward— Female: —carrying it whole— Both: This is the vessel, this is the goal. [Outro] (full swell, layered vocals fading together) Both (unison): Vessel in motion... still carrying...
