rostam - album teaser lyrics

a few years ago i met a stranger on a park bench
somehow i found myself opening up to him
revealing recent changes in my life that had altered its course
and he said, “change is good. go with it.”
i realized that i had never heard that sentiment expressed before
transphobia, biphobia, h0m+phobia
these words hold a weight of threat
and it occurred to me that the threats they bare
the fеars they describe
arе rooted in a fear of change
a fear of the unknown
of a future that is not yet familiar
one in which there is a change of traditions, definitions
and distributions of power
so gender, too, was on my mind while creating this album
as i came to find myself writing about love and connection
but not wanting to place relationships in a gendered context
this collection of songs is not celebrating a fear of change
rather, it’s the opposite
it’s about who we are capable of becoming
if we recognize these fears in ourselves
and rise above them
