Ingombro translates to "encumbrance" or "bulk". It's a less common word that evokes a sense of being a burden or taking up too much space.
In the song, the artist uses it to describe her own body, singing "il mio corpo non è più un corpo, è un ingombro di spazio" (my body is no longer a body, it's an encumbrance of space). This powerful and somewhat melancholic imagery makes the word stand out and offers a unique insight into the song's emotional depth.
Have you ever felt like there are two different people living inside you? In "Ioeio," which means "Me and me," Italian artist Angelina Mango explores this exact feeling. The song describes an intense inner struggle, with lyrics like "Siamo in due qui dentro / In un corpo soltanto" ("There are two of us in here / In just one body"). It's a powerful look at the battle between wanting to love yourself and a self-destructive side that feels like an enemy.
The song paints a vivid picture of feeling disconnected from your own body, describing it as "un ingombro di spazio" ("an encumbrance of space") or "un piatto che avanzo" ("a plate of leftovers"). Through these powerful images, Mango expresses a deep desire for self-acceptance, singing "Voglio benedire ogni parte di me" ("I want to bless every part of me"). It's a raw and honest song about learning to embrace all parts of yourself, even the ones that are hard to love, in order to truly exist.
