The track itself is a tongue-in-cheek odyssey through Kesha\u2019s own career and legal troubles with lyrics like, \u201cWoke up this morning feeling myself\/Hungover as hell like 2012,\u201d \u201cWe get it, you\u2019ve been through a lot of shit\/but life\u2019s a bitch so take your pick, so fuck it\u201d and \u201cInternet called and it wants you back\/Because you kind of rap and not be so sad.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The visual, directed by Allie Avital, finds Kesha in a rundown motel searching for a box of \u201cmagic cereal\u201d and encountering a colorful cast of misfits, like bodybuilders in ski masks, lingerie-clad women in gas masks and a pair of twins straight out of <em>The Shining<\/em>. <\/span><span class=\"s1\">The journey eventually leads the singer to the supermarket, where she finds the lone box of \u201cmagic cereal,\u201d meets her clerk doppelg\u00e4nger and then throws a party in a kiddie pool filled with the cereal and milk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Kesha\u2019s <em>High Road<\/em>, the follow-up to 2017\u2019s <em>Rainbow<\/em> and the singer\u2019s self-proclaimed return to pop music, arrives January 10th.
