In Verse 1 the writer is telling that step out of our comfort zones, be brave, and discover who we really are. It's like a message to our inner selves, deep thoughts, and encouraging us to explore and grow. in the post chorus the meaning which i understand is, The already-found is not what we desire; we need to search for that which remains undiscovered. in the verse 3 While the sea shore offers stability and safety, it's crucial to step out of our comfort zone and delve into deeper waters, recognizing that the shore has its constraints. In the Hook of the song, it is trying to say that it's essential to recognize our own worth and embark on a journey of self-discovery."
