I like the verses and overall music & theme but the humblebrag in the second half of the chorus ruins it for me. Like there is the potential to be this deep universally relatable thing with great applicability to the many injustices of the world if only she could have come up with something other than “brain”, it’s like she ran out of rhymes. It’s catchy and half stuck in my head but the deluded vibe completely ruins the contemplative mood for me personally… I kinda wish there was a remix with that part cut out but at the same time that seems disrespectful. – like is it really cringy or is this just my own desire to distance myself from my inner 14 year old? Is feeling that way reasonable or inauthentic? Heck WOULD the part have griped me back then? I can’t really know. Like there’s almost a self-awareness here since she aknowledges that she doesn’t always have the truth but then it’s like she makes herself out to be this great world-changer and its gross … but also frustrating because in other places this is full of intelligent double meanings and contemplative self-awareness I suppose it could be a natural sort of ambiguity of being certain one moment and less so another but like I still don’t think I can like that line personal taste wise it seems viscerally ugly and not in a deliberate way. I guess since im writing & replaying this the fascination seems to have won out for now. I mean generally im all for ugly feelings in songs maybe these ones are just too close to home which would be a good thing? IDK, must ponder. I mean all that could be true and it could still be a puerile braggadocious line.
