"There's always multiple stories at work. There's the thing we say out loud, the thing we're thinking, the reflection at the end..." - love that.
This is why I love her music and respect her as an artist, because she tells the audience a story, she's not just yapping on the Mic.
Great video!!

KIMBRAAAA 😍😍😍😍
There are a million variables that would make a great lyric, it's quite subjective because of that. In my opinion, a great lyric flows from the tongue easily, is technically interesting, is concise, and truthful. But other times, it's completely different.
