Shit Show

Jazmin Bean's 'Shit Show' is a raw and intense portrayal of emotional turmoil and the struggle to assert one's identity in the face of deceit. The lyrics paint a picture of a relationship where one party feels belittled and manipulated, with the artist expressing a strong desire to break free from the influence of someone who is seen as dishonest and controlling. The song's title itself sets the tone for a chaotic and messy situation, which is further explored through the vivid imagery in the lyrics.

The song opens with a scene of vulnerability, where the singer is 'crying on the bed' and communicating through gestures, suggesting a state of emotional distress. The repeated line 'Place you back where you were found' implies a desire to return the deceptive person to their original state of insignificance. The mention of 'God's plan' introduces a questioning of fate or divine intention in the midst of personal strife. As the song progresses, the lyrics become more confrontational, with the artist 'butchering through lies' and preparing to defend themselves against further deceit. The metaphor of throwing up a shield and aiming axes at the eyes of the liar indicates a readiness to fight back and protect oneself.

The song also touches on themes of growth and self-awareness. The artist recognizes the difference between themselves and the deceptive individual, vowing never to become like them. The reference to a '5 year old in daddy’s suit' suggests immaturity and pretense in the other person, while the artist is ready to move on, armed with the knowledge of their true self and the strength to resist manipulation. 'Shit Show' is a powerful anthem of self-empowerment and the refusal to be a victim of someone else's falsehoods.
