Lyrics
Verse 1
I need to get below the surface
Lookin’ like they could be nervous
Some days I pray I got no service
‘Cause iPhone is robbin’ me of purpose
You can always tell me when I’m needin’ a push
Breathe a little deeper just to slow down the rush
If you got the time could you just come by and hang
Let’s put it all inside and marinate on some things
Chorus
Deeper, I wanna go deeper
I’m getting tired of the surface
Deeper, I wanna go deeper
I’m getting tired of the surface, tired of the surface
Verse 2
Let’s stop and have a conversation
Tell me what’s really goin’ on
You probably feel some reservation
Real talk is fadin’ like a song
‘Cause I’ve been lost in my thoughts for a couple of days
You know I can’t catch my mind when it’s running away
If you can make the time can me and you conversate
Let’s push aside the noise and marinate on some things
Pre-Chorus
Tell me what’s been goin’ on with you
And I’ll tell you everything I’ve been walking through
Deeper, I’m gettin’ tired of the surface
Bridge
If you need a friend, need some shade
I’ll always be a safe place
If you need some love, someone to pray
I’ll stay up all night for you
I’ll leave on the light for you
Outro
We gon’ take it down to the roots
We gon’ dig a little deeper, just me and you
We gon’ take it down to the heart of it
I’ll meet you where you are
We gon’ talk through every part of it

Meaning & Inspiration
This collaboration is a conversational song about leaving surface-level talk to share real struggles with a friend. The verses describe wanting to get below the surface, distraction from phones, and asking a friend to slow down, come by and talk. The refrain repeats the wish to go further into honest conversation, and later lines offer a safe place, love, prayer and staying up all night for someone.
The lyrics are not an explicit prayer, but the offer of prayer and shelter reflects friendship among believers and fits Proverbs 27:17, Galatians 6:2 and James 5:16, which speak of friends sharpening each other, bearing burdens and praying together. The line "I'll meet you where you are" signals availability and care. The tone is relaxed and modern, and the song works as an encouragement to real fellowship.
