I feel the same way. I understand it's honest and personal, but that's not why I like songs. I don't have a strong enough connection to Brandy the person, to get-in on the basis of the song being personal. So that's not enough for me. So then I'm considering the lyrics from an angle other than the meaning they give. And the "illustrated, agitated, elevated, demonstrated" lyrics remind me of being 14 on hip hop message board trying to "key style" raps and everybody did the whole "I'm a lyrical critical cynical individual" thing. Sorry for the tardy. Candaaaay. Like a rock without the boat. Again it's kinda corny to me. There are some good harmony moments in it, but that's not enough to make me see the song like some of you do. The structure is off, on purpose and I understand why and I understand that's the point of sounding all over the place, but that doesn't make a pretty song. And I like pretty songs. Melodic songs. I shouldn't have to try to find the melody. Maybe one day I will feel differently when I hear it and the personal aspect is something I can relate to and speaks to my spirit but my brain always says NO, next.

WHY are you on this board if you aren't connected with Bran on a personal level at this point in her career?
She says aggravated, agitated....dnt make it more than what its givin lol

I'm on this board because I like Brandys music bitch and that's absolutely not up for debate. And I have connections with the people on it. Anything else?

Guess that makes ur a regular fan

Ok?

I absolutely love this song. I can't start the album without playing SAML. When I first heard it, I'll admit I felt the same way ( corny , lyrics sound amateur, sounds out of pocket , I liked the demo vocals more etc) but with B7 as a whole I honestly just had to let go of the previous Brandy and just receive what she was giving us. The lyrics are all over the place but very powerful when you truly listen and remove expectation of what Brandy should sound like.

she's really bringing us inside of her head I feel and sharing some of her deepest thoughts if you truly listen. BUT I can understand just not being able to get into it like that, and there is nothing wrong with that.

I feel like a Brandy was truly a mess at one point , broken hearted , high , probably on meds , Bi polar ,low self esteem , suicidal , insecure etc etc and she's telling us all of that in a very non traditional, poetic way throughout this song and album.

The worst song on B7 for me. SHE sounds good and I like her message but I'm not a fan of the lyrics or the production. It just kinda.. DRONES on.

unconditional oceans - I Am More is kind of an ICONIC streak of alber tracks tho. 

also last time I checked Say Something had the most views of the album tracks, but that was a minute ago so things could have changed

I AM More sounds CHEAP as hell...are you serious. I like the song but let's not act like it don't sound very amateurish

it does and so does SAML tbh

At least I am more is catchy

I knew there was something good about SAML at first listen but it sounds a little jumbled with the layering and you can't tell what she's saying. Once I read the lyrics, the song>>>
