Kate Reid - Текст песни Uncharted Territory

I'm walking into the unknown, into uncharted territory

And I know there are people out there who don't agree with me

'Cause I sing about who I am

And it's a shame that that's so hard for them

But I've been puttin' in time, dreamin'

And I got something different in mind

I just hope that I'm not ahead of my time

You see, I wanna burst these floodgates open on this solace river

And I'm a pretty good swimmer

But I've been swimming upstream for far too long, yeah

And I'm not into politics, and the guys in office who mouth off

'Cause as far as I'm concerned there ain't much else happening there

And I must admit, I pretended to care so people would think I was smart

When it's women and music and the earth and art that moves me

And I'm political just by loving who I love

By being who I am, you see, it's an act of rebellion

So I guess that makes me one hell of a rebellious political

Singer, song-writing, earth-loving woman-identified woman

And I know people are either going to love me or hate me

But that's the way it is in the biz, and in the world too

And I've heard guys at the top of the food chain

Talking about what I shouldn't sing about

And they're talking about what they think about me

And I've heard women say "She's great but that song's kinda angry

And why does she have to keep on singing about her sexuality?"

Well it's a little more interesting to me than what I'm seeing on TV

And what I'm hearing on the top 40 radio, yeah

See I'm a woman who has survived a lifetime of violence and lies

At the hands of my family and the patriarchy and it nearly killed me

And silence was my only friend, until now

And now my guitar and my pen and my voice are my companions

And where these songs come from sometimes or how, I don't know

'Cause I'm singing words I wrote years ago

And they're just starting to make sense to me now

And there are parts of me that have to die

So that I can make room for becoming more alive

And I have wished that if I cried enough

My tears will subside and this fear in me will disappear

And I have looked in the mirror hoping to see someone else

Hoping these lines on my face will have been erased

And I finally reached the place where I won't erase myself

And I won't let anyone else, no, no

So I wanna see my name in lights and have people lined up down the street

And I wanna fill every seat in the house

And I wanna be backed by an orchestra

With standing room only at the door, yeah

So who cares if I'm a lesbian, I didn't mean for it to happen

I think I just caught it while standing in line at the bank the other day

So let's make a deal here

You don't make like you're straight in front of me

And I won't rub it in your face that I'm queer

So in case you haven't got it yet, I got something to say

And it's my time to say it

And I'm not acquiescent, and I'm done with being complacent

So consider yourself warned

Because I'm just warming up

And when people who live 3000 miles away tell me

That my music makes her day and my words make their heart sing

Well I know in my soul I'm doing the right thing

Yeah, yeah, yeah
