### From

❝**telepatía**❞ is a song by Kali Uchis from her sophomore studio album *Sin Miedo (del Amor y Otros Demonios) ∞*. It was released as the album's fourth single on February 26, 2021, after gaining prominence on the social media platform TikTok.

An acoustic version was released on May 28, 2021.

## Background

In early 2020, Uchis teased a snippet of the song through an Instagram story.

The song's title was revealed on November 17, 2020, when Uchis posted a tracklist-reveal video for the album on her social media.

Uchis drew inspiration from telepathy and being able to spiritually communicate with someone whom she could not be with.

## Theme

The song is about a long-distance relationship that sees Uchis sing in Spanish about making love to her partner telepathically while they are apart. Additionally, the lyrics are notably gender neutral, and the song could be construed as Uchis referring to a person of any gender, seemingly as per Uchis's bisexuality.

## Lyrics

Quien lo diría

que se podría

ser el amor por telepatía

La luna esta llena mi cama vacía

Lo que yo te haría

Si te tu viera de frente la mente te la volaría

De noche y de día de noche y día

You know I’m just a flight a way

If you wanted you can take a private plane

A kilómetros estamos conectando

y me prendes, aunque no me estés tocando

You know I got a lot to say

all these voices in the background of my brain

Y me dicen todo lo que estas pensando

Me imagino lo que ya estas maquinando

Quien lo diría

que se podría

ser el amor por telepatía

La luna esta llena mi cama vacía

Lo que yo te haría

Si te tu viera de frente te la volaría

De noche y de día

de noche y día

You know that I can see right through you

I can read your mind

I can read your mind

What you want to do

It’s written all over your face times two

Cause I can read your mind

I can read your mind

I can hear your thoughts like a melody

Listen while you talk when you’re fast asleep

You stay on the phone just to hear me breathe

On repeat

Quien lo diría

que se pudiera

ser el amor por telepatía

La luna esta llena mi cama vacía

Lo que yo te haría

Si te tu viera de frente te la volaría

De noche y de día

de noche y día

(You know I got a lot to say

all these voice in the background of my brain)

### Translation

Who would have known

that you can make love through telepathy

The moon is full my bed is empty

What I would do to you

if i had you in front of me i would blow your mind

Night and day, night and day

You know I'm just a flight a way

If you wanted you can take a private plane

miles away we’re connecting

and you turn me on without even touching me

You know I got a lot to say

all these voices in the background of my brain

And they tell me everything you're thinking

I imagine what you’ve already been plotting

Who would have known

you could make love through telepathy

The moon is full my bed is empty

What I would do to you

if i had you in front of me i would blow your mind

Night and day, night and day

You know that I can see right through you

I can read your mind

I can read your mind

What you want to do?

It’s written all over your face times two

‘Cause I can read your mind

I can read your mind

I can hear your thoughts like a melody

Listen while you talk when you’re fast asleep

You stay on the phone just to hear me breathe

On repeat

Who would have known

you could make love through telepathy

The moon is full my bed is empty

What I would do to you

if i had you in front of me i would blow your mind

Night and day, night and day

(You know I got a lot to say

all these voice in the background of my brain)
