my wife is making fun of me right now because I'm just now realizing how good this song is. it's not that I never liked it, or heard it, but the lyric, Karmic lineage, stood out today and I ran it back and listened to the lyrics. whoah my God. "I wish you could see to my soul through this black bathing suit." the back story to that aside, isn't that how most of us feel? to be seen underneath the skin. for who we really are apart from our image and public persona? I know that's what I've always wanted. a connection with someone special that breeches the bounds of the physical. That reaches the actual essence and meaning of who we really are. and sometimes when we feel unseen we hide behind the only thing we know, our physical beauty. the karmic lineage line really stands out because basically, everything we deal with in life is a result of this. it's written in the stars, the trials we will face. the connections we will make and will not make. it's all about growth. for her to make such a bad ass song that touches so many, from such a shitty circumstance shows her growth. Nobody says it like her. and maybe the longing for validation is what pushes her to create some of the greatest art that's come out of a human heart.
