She explained a toxic relationship to the tee. I've been in this situation too many times. Thinking we're making progress and being shot down to be told it's not working. And then every time i was ready to end it, this person would jump every obstacle and climb every mountain to get me to stay. It took me 7 years to get out of the situation for good and this song just sends me back every time i hear it.

[@jencox3324]

Music is so therapeutic. Heard this last night at work since forever & I still remembered every line. Although he's a different genre, that's why I love Trent Reznor (NIИ). He has written every lyric himself & he went through some very dark times. To know that someone you respect knows what it's like makes you feel less alone. Now, he's in his 50s, has a stunning wife (Mariqueen Maandig), 5 kids & is getting his due respect in the industry. He's one award away from an EGOT, putting him in the same group as John Legend, Elton John & very few others.

I am so blessed to have been alive to personally experience that Lauren Hill, India Arie, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, Aaliyah, Angie Stone (ect) music era praising natural minimalist black beauty and brown skin. The ending of this time period praising beautiful black woman is the start of the sabotaging of the image of brown skin and natural hair being beautiful which lead to this fugazi ass era we are in now where black woman are not taking pride in themselves because they don't feel like they are enough and black men dishonoring the culture by disrespecting and degrading his counterpart more frequently and publicly while simultaneously uplifting the Europeans standards of beauty. We are trying to get back there and I have absolutely no doubt that we will in time. I love you Ms. Lauren Hill, thank you.

Cosign you 100%. Beautiful era in soul music highlighted by artists with substance, talent, and something of value to say. Lauryn Hill might be the most talented artist of her generation. Wonderful singer, brilliant rapper, and great actress who was disillusioned by the reality of success and stardom. She hated it and it really hit her psychologically.
