Taylor Swift fans may have cracked the code about the subject matter of another track off The Tortured Poets Department!
This time we’re looking at Cassandra. Many listeners figured the song is a reference to the character from Greek mythology — Cassandra, the daughter of Priam and Hecuba. She’s known for having the gift of prophecy, and snakes would whisper in her ear, allowing her to predict the future. But as the story goes, Cassandra got cursed by the god Apollo when she rejects his advances so that no one believes any of her predictions. Whenever she tried to share her prophecies, people called her a liar.

Now what does this tale all remind you of? Perhaps her beef with Kanye West? Many fans believe she used the Greek myth as an allegory for her longtime feud with the rapper. The proof? Just take a look at the lyrics! Taylor begins the song by saying:
“The call” seemingly refers to the phone conversation between Kanye and Taylor about the song Famous, which later reignited their beef. She continues to sing in the chorus:
Snakes in her cell? Hmm. Kim Kardashian recorded the call between her then-husband and Taylor — then released an edited version that made it seem like the pop star approved an offensive lyric about her in Famous. Taylor swore she never gave permission for Kanye to call her a “bitch.” However, no one believed her because of the edited tape. As a result, loads of people called her a liar and dropped snake emojis in the comments on her social media accounts. The full, unedited conversation came out years later, vindicating Taylor.
She was telling people the truth… but they didn’t believe. Only the future
