ANDRÆ – I gave birth to myself (2024)

Hi guys! This artist’s style was always very original to me. I already posted his music a few times on the blog (check out the links below the post). Today I am here to share his fresh song with you 🙂 Here is ANDRÆ — indie / electronic music artist from London, UK, and his track “I gave birth to myself”. Let’s check it out!

Immerse yourself in the poignant and empowering sounds of ANDRÆ, an indie electronic artist based in London, UK. His track, “I gave birth to myself,” delivers a profound and emotionally charged experience. The song delves into themes of self-discovery, resilience, and rebirth after overcoming adversity. The captivating production, coupled with ANDRÆ’s masterful vocal delivery, creates a sonic landscape that resonates with the listener on a deep and personal level. “I gave birth to myself” stands as a testament to ANDRÆ’s ability to craft music that not only entertains but also serves as a powerful vehicle for introspection and healing.

The genre-bending self-made artist talks about overcoming abuse and recreating himself after feeling like he had been erased in this empowering soul-infused alt-electropop song. After years of bullying, he retreated inside himself. It took a decade for him to come back to life, almost as a new born.

The lyrics of the song unfold a narrative of personal transformation, with vivid imagery depicting a journey from vulnerability to strength. The metaphor of giving birth to oneself, cutting one’s umbilical cord, and making up one’s own name symbolizes reclaiming agency and identity. The emotional depth and honesty in ANDRÆ’s lyrics make this track not only a musical gem but also a cathartic experience for those who resonate with the message.

As usual, thank you very much for being with me 🙂 Stand with Ukraine! Peace <3

LYRICS

yeah i used to crawl down on the floor
and you used to walk over me
mud on my face
all i could do was wait
for my water to break

you had to erase me
so i could be reborn
you had to erase me
so i could change form
you had to erase me
so i could be reborn
you had to erase me

i gave birth to myself
cut my own umbilical cord
i've made up my own name
came to life like never before

i raised this child
elevated his mind
cherished him like
no one else
i've watched him grow
taller and stronger
for worse or better

you had to erase me
so i could be reborn
you had to erase me
so i could change form
you had to erase me
so i could be reborn
you had to erase me

i gave birth to myself
cut my own umbilical cord
i've made up my own name
came to life like never before
