I’ve walked the decks where dawn runs thin, felt oceans gnaw at bone and skin. The Court may trade in whispered schemes, but tides break kingdoms, not their dreams. A rusted vow, a salted breath— I carved my name in spite of death. For waves remember every sound— and none forget the Captain’s ground. Feel the rigging strain— hear the warning groan. Every storm I face is a storm I own. I captain the tide that refuses to kneel. I move where thunder remembers to feel. Let courts unravel, let false kings reel— the sea stands with me, and the waves carve what’s real. The nobles boast of gilded might, but none survive the open night. Where lightning splits the world apart, I navigate by iron heart. No blade can cut what waves defend; no scheme can break what storms amend. For power granted from the ground is nothing next to depth unbound. Brace the mast and line— feel the anchor bite. Every oath I keep is a war the sea will write. I captain the tide that refuses to kneel. I move where thunder remembers to feel. Let courts unravel, let false kings reel— the sea stands with me, and the waves carve what’s real. I need no throne room— the waves have carried mine. The deep has judged me, and the deep does not resign. I captain the tide that refuses to kneel. I rise where tempests tear the sky from the seal. Let tyrants falter, let shadows congeal— the sea stands with me, and the waves carve what’s real. Only the bold earn the ocean’s vow.
