Migraine

BoyWithUke's song 'Migraine' delves into the internal conflicts and pressures faced by an individual striving for success and authenticity in a world that often demands conformity. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who is misunderstood and labeled as unstable ('I'm not a psycho, but I might go crazy'), while grappling with the expectations and judgments of others. The metaphor of a migraine represents the overwhelming stress and mental strain that comes with trying to maintain one's identity amidst external pressures.

The chorus emphasizes a desire to be recognized and to rise to the top, regardless of whether others have heard of the artist or not ('I just want to be on top'). This sentiment is coupled with a rebellious spirit, as the artist insists on doing things their way ('I've been waiting for a while to have it my way'). The repeated phrase 'I don't care what you think of me' serves as a mantra of self-acceptance and determination to stay true to oneself, even in the face of criticism or misunderstanding.

The song also touches on the theme of freedom and the right to express oneself openly ('But I don't mind, if it means I get to be free'). The artist's struggle with internal voices and the desire to avoid clichéd themes like heartbreak suggest a yearning for originality and the freedom to explore a wider range of experiences and emotions. Ultimately, 'Migraine' is a declaration of independence from societal expectations, a call for personal authenticity, and an acknowledgment of the complex journey towards self-realization.
