On \u201cthanK you aIMee,\u201d Swift sings about facing bullying, and the lyrics, coupled with the capitalization of the three letters in the title (KIM), led fans to think that the song is a dig at the SKIMS founder.<\/p>\n
A source tells PEOPLE of Kardashian\u2019s response to the track: \u201cShe\u2019s over it and thinks Taylor should move on.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kardashian \u201cdoesn\u2019t get why [Swift] keeps harping on it,\u201d the source says. \u201cIt\u2019s been literally years.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
In the chorus of \u201cthanK you aIMee,\u201d Swift sings, \u201cAll that time you were throwin\u2019 punches, I was buildin\u2019 somethin\u2019 \/ And I can\u2019t forgive the way you made me feel \/ Screamed \u2018F\u2014 you, Aimee\u2019 to the night sky, as the blood was gushin\u2019\/ But I can\u2019t forget the way you made me heal.\u201d<\/p>\n
Later, she changes the chorus to sing: \u201cAll that time you were throwin\u2019 punches, it was all for nothin\u2019 \/ An our town, it look so small from way up here \/ Screamed \u2018Thank you, Aimee\u2019 to the night sky and the stars are stunnin\u2019 \/ \u2018Cause I can\u2019t forget the way you made me heal.\u201d<\/p>\n
The song also references Swift removing \u201cany real defining clues\u201d about who the song is about, along with her admitting, \u201cI changed your name,\u201d which fans believed to be a reference to the song exploring her rift with Kardashian.<\/p>\n
The feud ignited between the two in 2016 when Kardashian\u2019s ex-husband Kanye West sang about Swift in his song, \u201cFamous,\u201d rapping, \u201cI feel like me and Taylor might still have sex\/Why? I made that bitch famous.\u201d West, 46, claimed that Swift had approved of the song, which the singer later denied.<\/p>\n
In a statement from a spokesperson at the time, Swift said she was \u201cnever made aware of the actual lyric, \u2018I made that bitch famous,\u2019 \u201d and Kardashian, 43, defended her then-husband, as she later described on Keeping Up with the Kardashians.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Kardashian then released edited footage of the phone call between West and Swift in an effort to prove her side of the story, though West noticeably did not mention the lyric, \u201cI made that bitch famous,\u201d during the call (which later leaked in full).<\/p>\n
By 2019, Kardashian claimed that they\u2019d \u201call moved on\u201d from the feud during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, but in a rare interview, Swift seemingly denied any such reparation of the relationship.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\u201cIt would be nice if we could get an apology from people who bully us,\u201d she told Elle, seemingly referencing the illegally recorded phone call and subsequent mention in West\u2019s song. \u201cBut maybe all I\u2019ll ever get is the satisfaction of knowing I could survive it, and thrive in spite of it.\u201d<\/p>\n
More recently, in her profile for TIME\u2019s 2023 Person of the Year, Swift reflected on the situation, which she said \u201ctook me down psychologically to a place I\u2019ve never been before.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have a fully manufactured frame job, in an illegally recorded phone call, which Kim Kardashian edited and then put out to say to everyone that I was a liar,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
