*Lyrics*
With the last breath of our angels
We take final steps.
And I lay him down
On those killing fields
Where nameless kneel.

If I could. 
If I could
I'd fuck it up.
If I could.
If I could
I'd be enough.
If I could.

Did her last kiss cut you deep enough,
With so little lust.
Did your tears fall like
Your unborn child's.
With her perfect eyes.

If I could.
If I could 
I'd break your heart.
If I could.
If I could.

Good women lie down with losers everyday.
I'll take him to the killing fields lay him down nameless. Deserving.
I swear I saw my child in her eyes.
I swear I've seen his tears in boys eyes.
In boys eyes.

"Baby, I’m My Own Empire"
Step into a world where vulnerability transforms into an unshakeable kingdom. "Baby, I’m My Own Empire" explores the journey from seeking external validation to discovering an unbreakable inner strength. With haunting imagery and a soaring spirit, this track is a testament to resilience, the beauty of self-sovereignty, and the quiet thunder of a heart that refuses to burn for liars.

🎵 Baby, I’m My Own Empire

[Verse 1]
I used to kneel in ruins for the taste of praise
Let you carve your name in my golden face
You crowned me with silence, called it love
But darling, thrones don’t beg to be enough

[Pre-Chorus]
Now my steps echo like a warning bell
Each breath a law I wrote myself
You want a seat where you once played pyre—
But I don't burn for liars

[Chorus]
Baby, I’m my own empire
Silk and flame in every wire
No more begging just to feel desired
I rise alone, unclaimed, entire
Your love was smoke, mine’s wildfire
Baby, I’m—baby, I’m my own empire

[Verse 2]
You kissed like conquest, spoke in thrones
But I built beauty in my bones
A sovereign heart don’t break to please
And I don't bend for make-believe

[Pre-Chorus]
You see this gold? It's not your proof
It’s forged from nights I walked through truth
You lost your place when you admired
The glow and not the fire

[Chorus]
Baby, I’m my own empire
Velvet rage and sapphire choir
You fed me doubt, I dressed it finer
Now I wear grace like sharpened wire
You can't return to what you tired
Baby, I’m—baby, I’m my own empire

[Bridge – Spoken / half-sung, minimal instrumentation]
You thought I was yours to crown
But empires don’t answer to ghosts
You can haunt the gate
But I’ll never open it again

[Breakdown – whispered vocals, then rising]
Watch me rule in quiet thunder
Built from ache you failed to wonder
I don't need your hands, your name
This kingdom pulses in my flame

[Final Chorus – layered, powerful]
Baby, I’m my own empire
Silhouettes in sacred fire
No prince, no war, no false messiah
I rise alone—higher and higher
My blood, my voice, my own choir
Baby, I’m—baby, I’m my own empire

[Outro – soft, fading]
Don’t kneel, don’t call
You can’t climb these walls
I’m not yours to admire—
Baby, I’m my own empire

~ Lyrics:

I was walking after midnight 
Three AM to be exact 
Crossing city limits 
A heavy coat upon my back 

Counting strangers as I passed them 
All were hurried, eyes ahead 
There is no trusting after midnight 
When we're just looking for our bed 

But I stared out from the overpass 
On the downtown haze 
Hailed a cab and headed toward it 
In a bleary daze 

The driver was slipping out 
Could hardly keep awake 
I prodded him with bony finger 
And we rode swerving to someplace 

Riding 

I pointed to the densest neon 
Made a motion to depart 
When I stepped out the streets were empty 
I let the color filled my heart 

And with it full I asked forgiveness 
With it full I asked for strength 
I asked it of the swirling neon 
And let my wish list turn to blank 

It was enough to pose the question 
I expected no reply 
But spun around found my way home 
And hit the sheets by morning time

Atwood Magazine premiere, with a track-by-track synopsis → bit.ly/EmotionVertigoPremiere

THE SONG:
Unknowingly when he started writing it, Bora York songwriter and producer Chris Bartels happened to be foreshadowing his own creative and emotional state with new single “I Finally Let My Heart Grow Again.”

With three children under the age of 6, and several other projects and commitments underway, Chris and Rebekah Bartels are hardly in a season of life with the luxury of time to be creative on a third Bora York album. In a seemingly endless creative funk, Bora York just wasn’t fun anymore for Chris.

Still, and always, a work in progress, there was a turning point a few months ago, when he stepped back and made a choice to worry less and focus less on the end results of things, and what Bora York “should look like.” Instead, trying to simply live in the moment of writing these songs, and go back to what birthed Bora York in the first place - having fun.

That feeling of brokenness, perhaps, is embodied in the experimental sounds of the track - glitched out synth beds, never fully in tune with each other, eerie and cinematic vocal samples, a dissonant main progression, and painfully sincere vocals.

“I’m a mess, it’s clear as day; but for some reason you stuck with me anyway.”

For awhile, Chris was wondering if Bora York had actually run its course, if it was time to move on. He was a mess. But he stuck with it anyway. 

And just maybe, when we’re in a painful time like this, if we let our heart grow again, little by little, there’s a new season on the other side.

THE ALBUM:
The four and half years of writing the album Emotion Vertigo were far from a smooth process for us. I was in a seemingly endless creative funk, and considered the idea of calling it quits on the project entirely. There was a turning point when I stepped back and realized I had let worries and insecurities of what Bora York “should or shouldn’t look like” take priority.

This process of ups and downs led to the creation of a collection of songs spanning an entire spectrum of emotion, thus giving the album title, Emotion Vertigo, its place. It was a passionate step back to what it’s all about - the music.

We can move slower still, let the moon catch up with us
We won’t let the dew arise before we let our sense run out

I gave it my all, and I hid what was left but now I turn

I finally let, let my heart grow again
I finally let, you in
I finally let, let my heart grow again
I finally let, you in

I’m a mess, it’s clear as day
But for some reason, you stuck with me anyway
And your voice, and your love cut through the storm
And I don’t wake up, in pieces no more

Oh I gave it my all, and I hid what was left but now I turn, now I
