Team is a pretty positive jam. It seems to be just about growing up, being a normal teen from nowhere. She continues to critique shallow pop culture as she did in Royals. "I'm kind of over gettin' told to throw my hands up in the air." Yes, aren't we all. Here comes the feminist run-down.
- No name calling
- Empowering women
- Look upon your greatness and she'll send the call out
- Not objectifying, maybe even speaking out against it?
- Call all the ladies out, they're in their finery
A hundred jewels on throats
A hundred jewels between teeth - Not about women in relation to man. She does mention boys, but the song is not about her in relation to them, it's about just being supportive of each other in general."We're on each other's team" is the phrase repeated over and over.
- Now bring my boys in, their skin in craters like the moon
The moon we love like a brother, while he glows through the room
Well done. If it were just a little more obviously woman-positive, it might get the plus.
