Analyzing The Song 'Always Stay Humble And Kind'

Walking up to someone and giving complements and befriend them is something this world needs. The song “Always Stay Humble and Kind” was written to reflect the niceness people can endure. The writer Lori McKenna sat down one day and wanted to write a song that would reflect life lessons to pass on to her children. All parents have a million things they want to tell their child, they want them to be safe and comforted. The entire song is short for a reason. People do not have a lot of time to tell children everything at once. Listening to the song it pin points the most important topics that a well round person can embody. The song, “Always Stay Humble and Kind” by Tim McGraw sheds light on respect, life lessons, and a reflection on society

People only live so long and seeing them in person means more to them than talking to them on the phone. Take time and spend it with people who will enjoy it. Another aspect on society that is relationships. They are so different from the past as well. People use to go out, and the gentlemen would open the door. Dinner was always paid for by the man. Today men do not do all of those things. To find someone who still does this is rare. Most of the time in the millennials the people are looking for “hook ups”. The song has a line that reflex relationships. It relates in that you should sleep with someone you know, and love. Love seems hard to find and may take a while to find.
