Tae wrote “Personally” in response to a family member who told her not to take his vote for Donald Trump personally. She made this electro-pop recording with Seattle producer Dave Miner.

Lyrics:

You say, Don’t take it personally.”
That’s some really bad advice
It’s been personal for centuries
And real people pay the price

What’s the matter?
Never thought of that before?
What’s the matter?
Do we need another war?
Your choices become violence when they break humanity
So we respectfully reserve the right to take that personally
We’re gonna take it personally

You say you have the right to your opinion
And I guess that’s true
But it sure sounds like your sacred opinion
Is that some people are less human than you

What’s the matter?
Never called on that before?
What’s the matter?
Do we need another war?
Your choices become violence when they break humanity
So we respectfully reserve the right to take that personally
We’re gonna take it personally

I’m not so proud of the thoughts in my head
I’ve been running round in circles looking for compassion instead
But I’m too furious you keep throwing us under the bus just to stay ahead
Cuz you’ve been mislead.

What’s the matter?
Didn’t realize that before?
What’s the matter?
Do we need another war?
Your choices become violence when they break humanity
So we respectfully reserve the right to take that personally
We’re gonna take it personally
