- I LyricsNow that we don't pay much attention
To what goes up or must come down
We decided not to follow
Apart from that we just don't care
From a decent crowded journey
Into a private desert land
Up-to-the-minute reviewed autonomy
Proof of independent anonymity
When the highest point of individuality
Culminates in loneliness
We reject our identity
And declare all reflections to be wrong
We, as a team of soloists
Are so unlike that we are desolate
Do we get a kick out of it?
This is just organised limitation
[Bridge:]
Are we strong enough for our egos?
Is there room to give us space?
[Chorus:]
I am on my own
Because I sent everybody else away
No one knows how to take me
Without being told
You are on your own
Because you sent everybody else away
No one knows how to take you
Without being told
We can no longer differ from the mainstream
'Cause we're insisting on a distinct minority
When finally everybody's different
Will we be the same again?
With emancipation-labelled foreheads
We proudly present our disintegrity
No box seems shapeless enough
For us to fit in
To what goes up or must come down
We decided not to follow
Apart from that we just don't care
From a decent crowded journey
Into a private desert land
Up-to-the-minute reviewed autonomy
Proof of independent anonymity
When the highest point of individuality
Culminates in loneliness
We reject our identity
And declare all reflections to be wrong
We, as a team of soloists
Are so unlike that we are desolate
Do we get a kick out of it?
This is just organised limitation
[Bridge:]
Are we strong enough for our egos?
[Chorus:]
I am on my own
Because I sent everybody else away
No one knows how to take me
Without being told
You are on your own
Because you sent everybody else away
No one knows how to take you
Without being told
We can no longer differ from the mainstream
'Cause we're insisting on a distinct minority
When finally everybody's different
Will we be the same again?
With emancipation-labelled foreheads
We proudly present our disintegrity
No box seems shapeless enough
For us to fit in
Facts about I
✔️
I is written by Dennis Weber, Jonathan Stenger, Christian Broehenhorst, Britta Goertz.
✔️
It is first released on June 19, 2009 as part of Cripper's album "Devil Reveals" which includes 12 tracks in total.
✔️
When we ask ourselves what the song was truly meant to express, Cripper's 'I [...]' tackles the issue of individuality and isolation that is paradoxical and asks if a person's identity can be adapted to a world that encourages uniqueness but sometimes leads to solitude. The imagery of 'a team of soloists' illustrates the dilemma of wanting to be different even in the company of others, whereas the constant questioning of the power of the ego and the size of the space denotes the difficulty of keeping one's identity in a society that expects conformity. The lyrics of I predominantly point out solitude, reflection, angst, social commentary, and despair. Alongside that, the song severs the knot of individuality vs. conformity, isolation vs. loneliness, ego vs. self-sufficiency, and disintegration of identity. The lyrics cover the territory of individualism, isolation, and a rejection of the norms of society which might be confusing for the younger ones to grasp. Furthermore, the continuous talking about sending people away and the stressing of solitude could be taken as an encouragement of loneliness and disconnection which could be a no-go area for kids below 13 years old without the help of parents.

I song length is 4 minutes and 26 seconds.
