It's Time For Ink

Lyric Description – “It’s Time Again for Ink”

“It’s Time Again for Ink” is a raw, reflective lyric about identity, memory, and reclaiming control through art. The song uses tattooing as both a literal act and a living metaphor—each piece of ink marking survival, love, loss, pride, and personal transformation.

The lyric moves between craving and purpose, capturing the hum of the tattoo machine, the acceptance of pain, and the quiet satisfaction that comes when a story is permanently etched into skin. Images of skulls, flags, military symbols, and memorials speak to a life shaped by experience—places traveled, dangers faced, and the weight of memories carried forward.

At its heart, the song is also about growth. The mention of sobriety marks a turning point, where money once lost is now invested in something meaningful. The portrait of a daughter becomes the emotional anchor—proof that this isn’t rebellion, but remembrance and legacy.

Refusing numbing cream, the narrator embraces the process fully, honoring pain as part of healing rather than something to escape. The final lines slow the pace, offering trust and patience—letting the artist work, letting time do its job, and allowing the story to be told the right way.

“It’s Time Again for Ink” is a lyric for anyone who wears their life openly—on their skin, in their scars, and in the choices they’ve survived long enough to make.
