I'm biracial, (half white, half Latin,) and I have been bullied by Latin kids for acting different than them, and I've been bullied by Caucasian kids by calling me ugly for having darker skin, but this song makes me feel proud of my individuality and my duality. I'M THE DEFINITION OF DICHOTOMY, AND DUALITY!! ❗❗
@@khushardeshna1140 I think you got it wrong, I hate to break it to you but this song is actually about her NOT wanting people to judge her based off if energies and her zodiac signs. This whole song is about her being herself, but its because she was judged and put in boxes based off energies and her mother's interest in astrology, hence the line "Tryna bring the MYSTICAL into the MATERIAL."
This entire song actually has a bunch of references to spirituality!! Which as a spiritual person myself makes me fangirl a lil bit harder than usual skfnsm
@@mason.jones222 "You're not real, just like me. We were never our bodies. We're just dust, energy." Energy is an incredibly big part of spirituality. (There's also another reason for these specific lyrics but I cannot for the life of me figure out the words to explain it) "Trying to bring the mystical into the material." 'Mystical' as in magic, other dimensions, etc. 'Material' as in our physical world. "Bitch, I'm an 11 life path, I'm imperial." Life path numbers "Katarina in the womb for 9 months 'til she birthed me." She talks about this on her Instagram actually, she said that her mother was going to name her Katarina (which means pure light) but then when she was born decided to name her Melanie (which means darkness) "But is your empathy actually authentic?" This one can be taken as a reference to people faking support for BLM/ACAB (or other things) or for using those subjects for clout, I just take it in both ways as empathy is also a spiritual gift. "Look at her, she's a bridge." Goes back to her name situation, as light and darkness are opposites. Also the life path number 11 is the bridge between the divine and the material. Some of these are just my personal interpretations of the lyrics though!! It might not be how other people take it or how she might've meant it, and that's perfectly okay!!!! It's just that you asked so I thought I'd share my thoughts dkdkn If you're interested, I suggest doing some of your own research!! There's a lot though, just as a warning skdjdj Also her latest Instagram post talks about the meanings behind each song if you haven't seen it already!! I apologize for this being so long, but I hope it was what you were asking for skfnm
@@mason.jones222 this song is a personal song to her, talking about the intricacies of her as a human, she talks about some funny contrasts of her just like that frase of Katarina because melanie was going to be called Katarina (means pure light) when she was in the womb, but in the minute she was born her mother changed to Melanie (means darkness) and she said that, it's to remember us that "whatever imaginary box people put me in, I will find a way out"
@@mariam-sz4jo AAA I LOVE YOU TOO. YOUR SUN AND MOON ARE BOTH SO FEMININE 🥺💕💕 MY SUN IS PISCES AND MY MOON AQUARIUS, CAPRICORN MARS ehehheh. Your Mars is such a great placement!!!
This song really is relatable for me. Sometimes it really just feels like I'm the only person that will ever be able to understand me. Everything I say is misunderstood. And after awhile it hurts and I can't understand why it's so hard.
I think the meaning is that shes a human too.She doesnt believe in zodiac signs because shes her own person and she doesnt wanna be what people tell her she should be or who she should be woth by her zodiac sign.And the feild trip symbolizes her getting away from those people.(thats what i think)
Ixxs.Majoo 8 please ( i don’t know if she sing in español but stop spam about this moment 🥺😬 it’s not because she say something in this language, it’s the "best moment" 💗😬😭😭😭💗
*Me, a witch, hearing Melanie sing about past lives, astrology, and the fact that we are spiritual beings sent to this Earth to experience hardship:* OwO 💅🔮🧿🧹✨
You know I'm not one to take orders from ya I'll drop another clue for you peek a boo, now do you get it You always wonder why I just say "forget it" 'Cause talking to a brick wall gives me headaches, headaches Spread your lies while I stretch Spread my legs and do the splits Yell at me on your screen While I stand up to your being You're not real, just like me We were never our bodies We're just dust, energy Hot like melting icy cream Tryna bring the mystical into the material Bitch, I'm an eleven life path, I'm ethereal I'm the definition of dichotomy, duality Katarina in the womb for nine months, 'til she birthed me Look at her she's a bridge and on her bridge, I'll take a shit Fuck it up you get lit let's get deep if not I'll dip I'll be riding solo on my field trip Ooh, ooh, oh oh Ooh, ooh, oh oh I'm never gonna be what you had envisioned You said "Blanquitas" feel more Latina than you, "Ahora lo entiendes" You always say you're woke, it's your aesthetic But is your empathy actually authentic, is it? I am shy but I do speak only when I truly need To say some shit that hopefully Will reach the ears it's supposed to be I try my best to show them me, my rising sign is all they see Scorpio bitch with a sharp ass sting I gotta Taurus Sun, Moon, Mercury Tryna bring the mystical into the material Bitch, I'm an eleven life path, I'm ethereal I'm the definition of dichotomy, duality Katarina in the womb for nine months, 'til she birthed me Look at her she's a bridge and on her bridge, I'll take a shit Fuck it up you get lit let's get deep if not I'll dip I'll be riding solo on my field trip Ooh, ooh, oh oh Ooh, ooh, oh oh
I listened to this on my way to knotts berry farm and when I here it I see the roller coasters and the hotel. It makes this song so magical I love it even more
Miss heard lyrics : "Habuline solo... Imma feel trip" "I got a Taurus on the mercury" "Yell at me, on your screen, while I send love to your bean" 😳 and I was singing for a WHILE I knew there was something wrong...
I love that Melanie puts in her songs (above all this album) witchy elements. As a witchcraft practitioner I really like it! I love her songs even for the childish but dark aesthetic. L o v e i t !
best lyric of after school: "I am shy but i do speak, only when i truly need, to say some shit that hopefully, will reach the ears its supposed to be. I try my best to show them me, my rising sign is all they see, scorpio bitch with a sharp ass sting, i got a taurus sun and mercury." THIS SONG IT FIREEEEEEEE🥵🔥
Thank you so much! I’ve noticed that some of the lyrics are gone and replaced with the next one very quickly, some even when Melanie is still singing the previous lyric. I understand that some parts of the song are quick, but I just want to inform you. ^^
"katarina in the womb for nine months, until she birthed me" Meaning of this lyric: Before melanie was born, her mom wanted to name her "Katarina," which means "light." but when she saw her for the first time, she decided the name "Melanie," which means darkness.
@@nadira1560 and “blanquitas” means white girls. the lyric is basically saying that people tell melanie she seems less latina for dressing in a vintage, cutesy style, for having light skin, for singing in english, etc. and so white girls who fit latina stereotypes feel more latina than her, an actual latina woman
I literally listen to this song every single day and I fell in love with it more and more!... it's unavoidable! Even more when I hear her "blanquitas"! So cute!!!!!!
