The song "Hard Drive (Security Guard)" by Cassandra Jenkins tells the story of a woman who faces a difficult situation after her husband dies or leaves her. She is forced to become a truck driver in order to support her family. The lyrics emphasize that her choice to take on this role does not diminish her femininity; rather, she is doing what she can to provide for her loved ones. The song also addresses the importance of maintaining a connection to nature and how losing this connection can lead to a loss of spirit, humanity, and sense of self. The lyrics suggest that when people become disconnected from nature, they can become like Donald Trump, implying a sense of disconnectedness from reality and societal issues. Throughout the song, a security guard and a man engage in conversation, discussing various aspects of art and sculpture. The security guard explains how the exhibition space is not traditionally welcoming to soft feminine sculptures, but the curator and designer made efforts to incorporate soft elements to represent femininity and create a more inviting atmosphere. The security guard also discusses the artist's unique approach to sculpture, focusing on the use of organic materials such as hemp and feminine techniques like macrame, knotting, and weaving. The song acknowledges the masculine perspective typically associated with sculptures, highlighting warmth and chiseling as masculine needs and techniques. In contrast, the female artist takes a feminine approach, utilizing materials, techniques, and concepts inspired by nature and Indian mythology to create three-dimensional soft sculptures. The lyrics suggest that both masculine and feminine perspectives are important to gain a complete understanding of art. At the end of the song, the characters express gratitude and encourage listeners to fully enjoy the artwork.
