This song is a swaggering, gospel-charged confession from a lifelong runner and heart-dodger who finally meets the one person powerful enough to make him drop every defense and beg to be claimed forever. With vivid “signed in ink” imagery, it celebrates the ecstatic moment he hands over his guarded past, his reckless present, and his entire future—no eraser, no escape clause—because her love rewrote his soul. Ultimately, it’s a triumphant, soul-metal vow of total surrender, blending rap bravado, bluesy fire, and choir-lifted joy as the narrator chooses permanent devotion and declares, “I’m all yours in ink.”

All Yours in Ink

Winnipeg composer, retired from the farm, still chasing meaning in melody. My work lives where TV cues meet YouTube soundscapes, with a few albums in between. Built in Mixcraft Pro, fuelled by late-night coffee, stubborn curiosity, and a Stoic’s sense of timing. Also writing on politics, history, and philosophy, because sound isn’t my only instrument.
