Do you know me?
Really know me?
You have opinions about my opinions
About my music
Do you know me?
Really know me?
You have opinions about my opinions
About my music
About my clothes
About my body
Some people hate what I wear
Some people praise it
Some people use it to shame others
Some people use it to shame me
But I feel you watching
Always
And nothing I do goes unseen
So while I feel your stares, your disapproval or your sigh of relief
If I lived by them, I'd never be able to move
Would you like me to be smaller, weaker, softer, taller?
Would you like me to be quiet?
Do my shoulders provoke you? Does my chest?
Am I my stomach? My hips?
The body I was born with
Is it not what you wanted?
If I wear what is comfortable, I am not a woman
If I shed the layers, I'm a slut
Though you've never seen my body, you still judge it
And judge me for it
Why?
We make assumptions about people based on their size
We decide who they are
We decide what they're worth
If I wear more, if I wear less
Who decides what that makes me? What that means?
Is my value based only on your perception?
Or is your opinion of me not my responsibility?
Znaš li me?
Stvarno me poznaješ?
Imate mišljenja o mojim mišljenjima
O mojoj glazbi
O mojoj odjeći
O mom tijelu
Neki ljudi mrze ono što nosim
Neki ga ljudi hvale
Neki ljudi ga koriste za sram druge
Neki ljudi ga koriste za mene
Ali osjećam da gledaš
Stalno
I ništa ne radim nevidljivo
Dakle, dok osjećam vaše zure, vaše neodobravanje ili uzdah olakšanja
Ako živim od njih, nikad se ne bih mogao preseliti
Želite li da budem manji, slabiji, mekši, viši?
Želite li da budem tiha?
Da li vas moje ramena provociraju? Ima li moje grudi?
Jesam li moj želudac? Moji bokovi?
Tijelo s kojim sam rođen
Nije li ono što si htjela?
Ako nosim ono što je ugodno, ja nisam žena
Ako sam prolio slojeve, ja sam drolja
Iako nikada niste vidjeli moje tijelo, još uvijek sudite
I osudite me za to
Zašto?
Napravimo pretpostavke o ljudima na temelju njihove veličine
Odlučujemo tko su oni
Odlučujemo što vrijedi
Ako nosim više, ako nosim manje
Tko odlučuje što me čini? Što to znači?
Je li moja vrijednost koja se temelji samo na vašoj percepciji?
Ili je vaše mišljenje o meni ne moja odgovornost?
