Authorial intent or public interpretation
The eternal debate over the meaning of creations
The internet only seems to amplify the discussion
People saying shit without thinking of repercussions
Echo chambers of flattery plug your ears from critics
Double-down on bigotry just to please the cynics
While it's possible a work of art can stand on its own,
It's hard to ignore the author when they have a megaphone

Parasocial faker

People start to think that creators are their friends
To get more fans, they play along and pretend
Faking authenticity to market their brand
Golden calves worshipped in the palm of your hand
So is it possible to separate the artist from the art
Or should we believe someone when they tell us who they are?
If cancel culture exists, then answer this if you can
Why do shitty creators keep getting money from their fans?
