about

I initially wrote the all the words to this as a poem in expression of love and gratitude towards my pen, and all the wonder I can create with something as simple as ink and a blank piece of paper. But I jotted it all in my book and put it away as I forgot about it almost completely. Months later I wrote all the music in my home studio, but had no words to it.
During a solo visit to the ocean one day, I took my book of poems to casually look through it and realized that the rhythmic syllables of that very poem matched my music perfectly. The whole thing felt like it fell on my lap. Sometimes it too easy... and sometimes it's not.

~Sam Babayan

lyrics

Feather Blue

Let my pen be my sword
My weapon is my word
The ink that bleeds through the truth
Is the key to the gates of you
The fountain that pours through you
On the tips of my feather blue

I’ve got ink that impregnates
My paper blank softly waits
You’re a brash creature I embrace
Love to adore your trace
The religion of slavery
Is trying to let go of me
So who cursed your mighty lord?
Oops, I said a dirty word

And I wrote it down with my feather blue
You bleed so true
You're my feather blue, I wanna make it clear
I long to hold hold you close, cos you bleed so true
Oh, my feather blue, you bleed so true...
