it’s love symbolized through primal and tribal means. About how it can feel to have all of it to yourself, with no one knowing, just in your head. That living room is Kanye’s mind and everything and everyone else are his thoughts and feelings.

Love can be like a wild untamed animal. Uncontrollable, violent, unpredictable. But, it can also have the natural movement of an animal: slick yet stable, power balanced with grace, like the steady vibrations of a beating heart … or drum. Humans tend to forget that they have primal instincts, tribal thoughts, animal rhythm. We can blend mental love and fleshly lust; we can make a war of it. It’s painful and raw, but it’s human.

What’s also human is that we realize our emotions, and then fight them (for a variety of reasons; personal, social, cultural). We cage the animality of love that wants to run wild and free. Wants to love who it loves with no thought getting in the way of what it desires. Without having to hide it and lock it up. We lose.

**and this is just a side comment for all haters talkin’ bout ciara’s video- she really really showed her ass in that video!! yes, it was visual and yes she danced that ass off once again.. i’ve loved the majority of her videos but this one just blew all of them out the water.. i don’t quite know how it compares to kanye tho–it’s just a matter of taste i guess.. both of these videos are the shyt tho, hands down!!
