Maybe 80 percent of what we conceive to be a song idea or the meaning of a song is not exactly what the artist meant most of the time. It's not bad - people can take what they want from it.

No one holds the power. Just because they might give you a bit of money every now and then doesn't mean that they have the right to change what you do.
