But I never want to get to the point where I write a safe song or one that represents my sense of a subject in order to appear civilized.

Writing is always personal in some way but not always in a direct way.

My name is Luka I live on the second floor. I live upstairs from you, yes, I think you've seen me before.

To me, a feminist belong in the same category as a humanist or an advocate for human rights. I don't see why someone who's a feminist should be thought of differently.

My intellect has always been more responsible than my emotions for how I respond to the world.

A lot of my writing is not terribly civilized. Sometimes I listen to songs by very smart writers who assume that the world is a civil place with certain formalities that people follow, but I don't see things that way. My own experience tells me that life is not like that. That's why I write the way I do.

I still consider myself a feminist.
