gorgeous song.... i guess she's ranting about society...
"you better have a lot of cheddar if you ain't got data"... if you don't have the facts, you better have a lot of money!
seems like at the end she puts it on herself too "i drink alcohol, know the words to Wonderwall"... she's not perfect either |

she's a little arrogant, but she's got the goods to back it up. Or she's making fun of other rappers who say stuff like this.
this song remains me of Missy Elliot |

when she says "all I need is my leather" I think of Leather by Tori Amos.... "if this isn't forever, and it's not forever, hand me my leather..."
do you think she meant to reference or just a coincidence? |

i dont know -- talking to yourself, like your soul or psyche, or another side of yourself? The way you do when you're upset to calm yourself down? that is just the first thing that comes to my mind. |

yes!! She's saying that the IDEA of God from the organized religions perspective fails a lot of people, both individually and as societies (wars, etc). Not necessarily that there isn't some kind of higher power. |

yep, that's how i see it too... i could just pretend that you love me, the night would lose all sense of fear (scary because of her past rape experience?) but why do I need you to love me?
she finds herself wanting a sexual experience with this guy, but feeling conflicted because sex is associated with love, also with rape, the scary part... but really she just wants to have sex and leave it at that!! |

definitely a feminist song, also it's interesting she says that "on the social totem pole I'm preciously close to the top." Because she's white?? or famous with some money and power?? |

i agree with the above comments, but there's also another layer you can see to it -- at the end she says "you see, it feels like I'm starting to care..."
Like she's afraid to make a deeper commitment to someone, afraid of caring about someone or afraid of getting hurt? |
