You're Welcome?

First, I have to admit that I absolutely love the movie Moana, probably even more than my son does.  My church is doing a sermon series using songs from the movie. While watching the clip of Maui singing "You're Welcome" on Sunday, I realized the song starts out with contradicting perceptions.  Moana thinks that Maui took the heart of the Te Fiti selfishly and needs to return it because resources like fruit and fish are dying off due to his actions.  Maui thinks his stealing the heart was giving more power to humans and that he should be thanked for it. Both feel passionately about their viewpoints, but neither is willing to compromise.
