Blackfish

from HEKLA by SIAN ABLE

lyrics

When I look into the eyes of an animal, I see a living being, I see a friend, I see a soul

Orcas & I, love at first sight, their languages, their families
I’m an orcaholic in love with these sick beauties in black & white
But you know some of ‘em are living in prison like the well-known Tilikum
He is a fighter but can he live there any longer

You've taken all but his last breath, every part of him is sentenced to death
You should let him go before it’s too late to breathe the ocean air, to feel the waves
You fucking SeaWorld are thieves blinded by power blinded by money
How can you - guys even sleep

They used to call you Blackfish
Now you’re a Killer Whale
For me you’re still a Blackfish
You ain’t no killer ain’t no whale
You used to rule the seas
Now you’re dying in a cage
For me you’re still a Blackfish
And you’ve been one for ages

Mankind & nature should be as one, my heart’s bleeding, I see what we’ve done
In my dreams they heal my heart and body, I guess I could live in the ocean
Many places on earth men are still killing whales and dolphins
Every part of me is hurting when I realize it’s still happening, and

I wanna fight and stand up so I wrote this song and I will sing it for years
For all the souls in captivity, to all the nature poetry
I deeply believe we are all connected, this is my soul
Greeting yours

How do you feel when you come home at night
Now it’s time to make it right
For animals rights, for animals rights, I’ll fight
This is a Stop Killing Whales emergency light

SIAN ABLE Brussels, Belgium

Sïan Able is Anaïs Elba’s solo project, a palindrome referring to her ambidexterity.
A singular and melancholic universe, between pop-soul and neo-soul.
Sïan Able offers organic music of unspoken emotions, passion for nature, wild and human. From singing to keyboards, from writing to composition.
Her music is as muscled as her personality, her voice as frank as her lyrics. ... more
