“what about all the children and all their children’s children” is referring to “to all our children’s children’s children”

'Coachella-Woodstock in my mind' is the serve of the century.  All of y'all really slept on this one.

Interesting. I think it's also quite possibly a reference to the Bible (or one of the many novels/songs that uses the phrase), where 'Children's Children' means descendants, rather than grandchildren. (It still irks me that there are Lana fans who criticise that line, because they don't know what it refers to).

when you mature you realize that this song is an actual stairway to heaven

i feel like many people were too overwhelmed in 2017 to get into this song. i really love this song. i find it unique apparently. never heard a song like this.

 

i love the production in particular because it sounds so bittersweet. there are trap beats in it but they don't sound cheap to me, i have never heard any trap beats like these in other songs, they feel old-school to me somehow. but there's this music in the background which sounds so sad somehow, like the world is about to end or is near to a catastrophe. or like a score from a movie which ended sadly. the song is meant to be sad but ends hopefully.

 

i find the lyrics genuine because i don't find this song to be that overly political but more like about legacy. she seems to contemplate if her career is really worth all the pain and terror that the war might cause. was it the america she wanted. would she be remembered better if she would at least contribute for the peace and building the world, would that be all worth more than her career. 

 

i'm not american, so i don't know really how tense the political climate it was there - i assume it was alarming because as an european i still remember reading the news about the situation which happened between north korea and the usa. it really seemed threatening to almost all of us, and all the questions around the possible new world war and nuclear attacks.

 

just my thoughts, i have always loved that song. i remember listening to the song for the first time when it had like around 400 thousand views on youtube.
