After high school, Wynter threw herself fully into realizing her music dreams, while also dealing with surviving on her own for the first time. She juggled several jobs while working in the studio at nights and as much as she could. During this time, Wynter met her manager, Keith White who introduced her to Don Pooh at Atlantic Records. Wynter worked closely with producer D'Mile since 2004 where they both came with her first track to fame, "Gonna Breakthrough" written by Wynter Gordon and produced by D'Mile was used as the title track to Mary J. Blige's 2005 album The Breakthrough. Soon after, Wynter was given an opportunity and signed to Atlantic Records, through Don Pooh Music Group, where she has been working on her debut album since 2004.
In 2008, Wynter penned two tracks for Danity Kane's second album Welcome to the Dollhouse, "2 of You" and "Do Me Good". Wynter co-wrote the summer smash "Sugar", a track that she was featured on with Flo Rida from his 2009 album R.O.O.T.S. after laying down a reference vocal. The track became an international hit and peaked at number #5 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 . Wynter also co-wrote and sang on the dance track "Toyfriend" from French DJ David Guetta's 2009 album One Love. Wynter worked close with Jennifer Lopez on her new project writing four tracks for her including "What Is Love", "What Is Love Part II", "Starting Over" and "Everybodys Girl" for her seventh studio album Love?. Currently, Wynter is also writing for artists including Adrienne Bailon, Estelle & Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester.
Wynter is currently working on her debut album with no official release period being set so far. The album is titled "With the Music I Die". Wynter confirmed that the Jupiter Ace-produced "Dirty Talk" will be the official lead single. It was released on iTunes and Amazon.com on March 2, 2010. Presently, the second single from the album is 'Surrender'. Although Wynter said herself things may change but did confirm that presently 'Surrender' is the second single choice. On October 22, Wynter announced via her official website that she would be releasing her debut EP, The First Dance, on November 9, 2010. The tracklist contained 4 of her previously released collaborations with David Guetta, Freemasons, Rhythm Masters & MYNC and Static Revenger, along with two previously unreleased remixes. She recently performed at Madison Square Garden singing the national anthem for the Knicks vs. Heat game. With the Music I Die is scheduled for a March 2011 release.
Right Here
Wynter Gordon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I gotta place to go
It's a winding road,
It′s the path I chose
On my own
There's no one to blame here
Maybe it's all my fault
Cause I closed the door,
Now I′m right here alone
My picture stands in a frame,
In this empty house
You can call up on me,
I don′t wanna be found!
I'm staying here
I, Like it right here!
When I get to the
I′ll come bad again!
Though it seems hard to breathe,
Just hang on till then
I'm staying here
I, Like it right here!
Walking a distance,
My only remedy
For a weary heart
That has come so far,
On my own
I hear a knocking,
I hear you call my name
Wish you could give in,
Cause my hearts knocking
For comforts that I′ve known!
My picture stands in a frame,
In this empty house
You cm call up on me,
I don't wanna be found!
I′m staying here
I, Like it right here!
When I get to the
I'll come bad again!
Though it seems hard to breathe,
Just hang on till then
I'm staying here
I, Like it right here!
Never be too far so,
Don′t make this so hard
Let me, me be free
To find,
What the future may hold
Don′t make me apologize
Never be too far so,
Don't mate this so hard
I′ll be the same,
My heart won't change!
Right or now,
I′m staying right here!
Right here!
Ooooh yeah!
Ooooh yeah!
Ooooh yeah!
Maybe my picture stands right...
My picture stands in a frame,
In this empty house
You can call up on me,
I don't wanna be found!
I′m staying here
I, Like it right here!
When I get to the
I'll come bad again!
Though it seems hard to breathe,
Just hang on till then
I'm staying here
I, Like it right here!
Right here, right here
I′ll be right here
In the lyrics of Wynter Gordon's song "Right Here," the singer expresses feelings of not belonging in a certain place but also feeling a sense of determination and purpose in moving forward. The opening lines convey a sense of being on a personal journey, choosing a path independently despite potential feelings of isolation or fault. The mention of closing the door and stepping off "life support" implies a decision to face challenges head-on and embrace solitude as a means of growth and self-discovery.
The recurring motif of a picture in a frame and an empty house symbolizes a sense of emptiness or longing for connection, yet also a desire for privacy and a retreat from external influences. The refusal to be easily found or reached suggests a need for introspection and self-reliance, indicating a period of self-exploration and self-definition. The insistence on liking where one is signifies a sense of contentment and acceptance of one's current state, despite any hardships or uncertainties.
The lyrics also touch on themes of resilience and perseverance, with the singer emphasizing the importance of holding on during difficult times and trusting that better days are ahead. The references to walking a distance as a remedy for a weary heart and hearing a knocking that calls the singer's name indicate a willingness to confront challenges and listen to inner guidance, even while yearning for familiar comforts and connections. The repeated refrain of staying right where one is reinforces a sense of resolve and a refusal to be swayed by external pressures or expectations.
Overall, the song "Right Here" conveys a message of self-empowerment, inner strength, and the courage to embrace solitude as a means of personal growth and self-discovery. The lyrics evoke a sense of resilience, determination, and acceptance of one's current circumstances, while also hinting at a longing for connection and understanding. It celebrates the idea of being present in the moment, finding peace within oneself, and staying true to one's path, regardless of external influences or challenges.
Line by Line Meaning
I don't belong here
Feeling out of place, but having a purpose elsewhere
But I gotta place to go
Knowing there is somewhere else I need to be
It's a winding road,
The journey I've chosen is not straightforward
It's the path I chose
I made the decision that led me here
On my own
Facing this journey independently
There's no one to blame here
Taking responsibility for my actions
Maybe it's all my fault
Recognizing my own flaws and mistakes
Cause I closed the door,
Deliberately cutting ties or shutting myself off
Got off life support,
Moving away from dependency on others
Now I'm right here alone
Accepting solitude as a consequence of my choices
My picture stands in a frame,
A reminder of the past in this empty space
In this empty house
A place devoid of warmth or comfort
You can call up on me,
But I may not want to be found or reached out to
I don't wanna be found!
Seeking solace in being left to myself
I'm staying here
Choosing to remain in this current state
I, Like it right here!
Finding contentment in the present circumstances
