Gabrielle Manna’s “Call Out Post” is an empowering and liberating song. Her words describe a person who has been cheated and emotionally manipulated but managed to rise above it with a renewed strength.

It starts with the protagonist thinking about how he/she was cherished and directed in their previous relationships, only to be deserted without any reason. The first line says, “You were my champion – you were my guide – you put me on your platform – then you left me behind.” This shows both praise and confusion that comes as a result of sudden desertedness. An individual will be shattered when one day they are revered, and the next they are dumped.

The lyrics go into more detail about the psychological implications of this relationship. Some lines go like, “You taught me how t fight / When you made our home a prison” and “You taught me what love is / Then you taught me what it isn’t.” These points show that lessons have two sides. It is during this period that Gabrielle also realizes what real love means.

The chorus entails these words; “Don’t want you on my feed anymore / Sorry if I offend your ghost/ I’ll draw a line of salt on the floor / I’m hitting send on the call out post”. With such terminologies associated with social media usage today, Manna connects with people who will listen to her music.

The last part reads; “I’m not playing nice anymore / I don’t care if I offend your ghost/ I’ll draw a line of salt on the floor / I’m hitting send on the call out post.” It helps them come to terms with their past so they can move forward fearlessly. The powerful theme in “Call Out Post” is about having one’s voice back by fighting against inequity which makes it inspirational for those who wish to overcome betrayal through themselves.
