A collaborative music project for the summer of 2016, between SS.Sebastian and long-time indie music supporter Stacy Shores.

Based on a poem written by Shores on the birth of his son Julian, in January '98. It is sung from the perspective of a dedicated and nervous, young father, to his newborn son.

This song is a gift for everyone who wants it to be a gift, and dedicated whole-heartedly to Jules.

lyrics

You are the stars in the sky that guide me
The sun in my eye that blinds me
You are the cool in the fire, the warmth in the ice
The sweet taste of pain in the sacrifice

You are my reason for creation
The incarnation of my love

-

You are the veil of dark that hides me
The chain of gold that binds me
You are the dry in the rain, the wet in the drought
The knowledge and faith to live through the doubt

Obsession and damnation
Beauty and salvation of my love

-

You are the pride and joy upon me
The apple of my eye who can't wrong me
You are the first and the last, the future the past
The echo of my voice and the shadow I have cast

My son and my relation
Here's my proclamation, you're my love

My son and my relation
Here's my proclamation, you're my love

My son, my love
My son, my sun
