About this song

  • "Eat the Acid" is a song by American singer-songwriter Kesha from her fifth studio album, Gag Order (2023). It was released as the lead single for the album, as a double A-side alongside "Fine Line", on April 28, 2023, ahead of the album's full release on May 19, 2023. An accompanying visualizer was released the same day. The song was written by Kesha, her mother Pebe Sebert, and Stuart Crichton. "Eat the Acid" was the first song to be written for the album, after Kesha had a spiritual awakening during the coronavirus pandemic. In the months leading up to the song's release, Kesha revealed portions of the song to fans across several occasions. In November 2022, a six-second snippet of the song was posted online. On March 8, 2023, she live streamed portions of several songs, including "Eat the Acid", on Instagram. She also shared a portion of the song on SoundCloud from a since-deleted account, eventually removing the song in the weeks leading up to the official announcement of her album. The song is in minor-key and lasts 4 minutes and 2 seconds. It makes use of autotuned vocals, and uses bass guitars, drum machines, synthesizers and a piano. Its title refers to advice that her mother gave her about not taking acid as it showed her "too much", and the lyrics speak about Kesha's experience with using LSD and Transcendental Meditation. For example, she sings over wheezing synths and a bass rumble: "I searched for answers all my life / Dead in the dark, I saw the light." .
