One person said: I feel like so many people are making headlines seeing it says KIM without actually listening to the song.

It's not a diss if it's saying you were a bully but it's okay cause I'm healing and becoming bigger and successful despite what Kim put her through

A second wrote:  It’s so funny how many people get triggered and comment on these articles about how much they hate her or are sick of her blah blah yet the articles are written because she’s relevant and brilliant, but from the author's perspective to stir us all up. And folks fall for it every time 

While a third commented: It was a diss track. Listen closely to the lyrics, and you'll see that AIMEE is a fckn loser 

Someone else said: These 2 need to be boxed up together for a month and made stare at each other the whole time. Get over yourselves!
