Any strifes she has with her boss is basically a strife with herself, and at most she has the label controlling her which at this point I don't think are doing much to limit her. I could be wrong. that being said, i think the preceding line "i just fell in love" nullifies any argument made to think that beyoncé is somehow trying to claim she works a 9 to 5 because she's setting it up as as fictions everyday-person story right there, unless we do think she just fell in love and has a lover. i took the “i just fell in love” line as falling in love with herself, the “searching for love/looking for something that’s inside me” ties in with it and the rest of the song narrative for me but i agree the job stuff is just pretty general so i think it’s whatever meaning you wanna find

I just hope it stabilize in the top 10 leading up to the album release so it’ll get the final push it needs to go no.1 I don’t think we’re getting a MV until then tbh.

SLIME Posted June 28, 2022 Posted June 28, 2022 I went to my first Pride over the weekend, and this song went OFF.

Comments such as this makes me laugh. Why is this the one lyric that everyone is caught up on? It isn’t just you, it’s most people. Have people forgotten the days where artists were storytellers? Tina Turner was never a private dancer, Michael never met a woman named Billie Jean, Mya didn’t drug her boyfriend and best friend with her ‘lie director’

Flanders Posted June 28, 2022 Posted June 28, 2022 I just heard it for the first time and I love this song. I do think it’s a bit too long, but I expect to hear it a lot over the summer and am very excited for the video! Definitely a new vibe from her, so refreshing

Tina Turner was never a private dancer, Michael never met a woman named Billie Jean, Mya didn’t drug her boyfriend and best friend with her ‘lie director’ I know your comment was to Swiss and not me but Swiss was replying to my comment so just to clarify- I totally get that this is first and foremost an anthem for the great resignation and therefore about the everyday person. However, I always think it’s fun to see what other kind of meanings there could be. Jay is a writer on the song and he is so known for double and even triple entendres. His greatest line is actually a quadruple entendre Anyway, I’m pretty confident he wrote the rap part. Cuz the flow sounds just like his most recent flow. And that definitely has at least 2 meanings. Maybe three. 1) Covid so wear ur mask outside cuz we’re off lockdown 2) alluding to on the run tour where she wore the mask and 3) kinda just frontin like she’s hood and she’ll run up on u if u get slick So anyways was just curious if some other lines in the song could maybe apply to Bey personally as well as represent the everyday person. I don’t think she is as disconnected from the lyrics as everyone seems to think she is.

Bosque Posted June 28, 2022 Posted June 28, 2022 The way she could’ve secured a Top 5 just by releasing a video she really went from 17 videos to 0
