The song, which the singer says is "literally a diary entry of an experience that I had when I did ayahuasca and San Pedro in Peru with the shamans there,” , has garnered criticism from many online for the unscientific basis of her claims.

"My music is for me, and I'm just putting it out," she told the magazine.
