About Mud Blood

"Mud Blood" is a song recorded by Belgian singer Loïc Nottet, released on 17 March 2017 by Jive Epic. Written by Army Morrey and Nottet and produced by Alexandre Germys, the track acts as the second single for Nottet's debut studio album Selfocracy (2017). Musically, it has been described as a 1980s and rock-inspired electropop song featuring synthesizers in its instrumentation. The lyrics discuss on the presence of demons inside people. Music critics were positive towards "Mud Blood", praising its construction and catchiness; selected reviewers viewed it as the best track from Selfocracy. An accompanying music video for the song was directed by Edouard Valette and uploaded onto Nottet's official YouTube channel on 21 July 2017. It portrays a fight between good and evil in which two versions of the singer fight against each other by performing choreography. The visual was received with universal acclaim from critics. For further promotion, Nottet performed "Mud Blood" on several radio and television shows, and included it on the setlist of his Selfocracy Tour (2017–2018). The track attained minor commercial success in Belgium.

We got demons
Demons stuck inside our blood
Yeah we got drugs inside our heart
Yeah we eat the mud to be free

We got demons
Demons stuck inside our blood
Yeah we've got drugs inside our heart
Yeah we eat the mud to be free

We're gonna lose, mama
Because we choose, mama
To say that we're the best
But we look just like the rest, mama

We want that crown, mama
And we want it now, mama
To be the selfish kings
Of a worthless empire

That's why we're insane
We take mud to escape
'Cause life's hard to take

So in our veins, it runs mud blood
We take all kinds of drug
It's our way to pretend
That we enjoy the life we've got
Sometimes it hurts to pray
To God and other saints we've got mud blood

We got demons
Demons stuck inside our blood
Yeah we got drugs inside our heart
Yeah we eat the mud to be free

It's all about, mama
What we look like, mama
We talk about ourselves
Even if we sound obsessed, mama

Others express, mama
We couldn't care less, mama
We want to take you out
Like in a game of chess, mama

That's why we're insane
We take mud to escape
'Cause life's hard to take

So in our veins, it runs mud blood
We take all kinds of drugs
It's our way to pretend
That we enjoy the life we've got
Sometimes it hurts to pray
To God and other saints we've got mud blood

We're mud eaters
We're mud eaters
We're mud eaters
We have mud blood 
we take all kinds of drugs

We're mud eaters
We're mud eaters
We're mud eaters
We have mud blood 
we take all kinds of drugs

That's why we're insane
We take mud to escape
'Cause life's hard to take

So in our veins, it runs mud blood
We take all kinds of drugs
It's our way to pretend
That we enjoy the life we've got
Sometimes it hurts to pray
To God and other saints

So in our veins, it runs mud blood
We take all kinds of drugs
It's our way to pretend
That we enjoy the life we've got
Sometimes it hurts to pray
To God and other saints
We've got mud blood
