- Harsher in Hindsight: Steven's verse "I will fight for everything that everybody wants me to be when I'm grown" - composed as a toddler - takes on a darker side in Steven Universe: Future when we see Steven has trouble finding his own purpose outside his earlier mission and obligations. Did the Gems unwittingly indoctrinate him with their heavy expectations sandwiched in love?
- Memetic Mutation: It's common for fans to boil down each Gem's line in the last verse to what they're actually supposed to mean for the sake of comedy.Garnet: I will fight for the right to be gay.
Pearl: I will fight for the one I was 1,000% gay for.
Amethyst: I live here.
Steven: I will fight so I will not disappoint my moms.
