• you could use annotation('textbox') https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/annotation.html . Note that the coordinates are figure coordinates, not data coordinates
• you could use a uicontrol() style 'text'
• you could text(), making sure that the text object property 'Clipping' is not 'on' (it is 'off' by default which is what you would want)
• you could create a second axes with 'visible', 'off', and text() inside it. If you do this, be careful if you are using subplot(), as subplot() will automatically delete existing axes that are found to be overlapping.

Just adding that you can break a string in multiple lines using newline, e.g.

str=['1st line' newline '2nd line'];
