But he sends her cautionary messages: “But then I hear you say that I better not do nothing crazy/ ‘Cause Nami’ really needs you.”Īiko wraps up the album with encouragement, telling those who are down and out that “there’s a blinding light inside of you/ And they can not deny you.” Common gets the last verse of the album: a spoken word where he says birds (or people) that have been “ripped apart and get put back together” are “the ones with the most beautiful feathers.” The solid ending to Souled Out is a simple message: endure.Mga album Mga studio albums Lista ning albums, selected details at posisyon sa tsart She admits that the combination of missing him and feeling as if she couldn’t go on without him led her to suicidal thoughts. The next verse, though, is dedicated to her brother Miyagi, who died of cancer a few years back. It’s a straight-up mommy-daughter conversation. Jhene Aiko opens this thoughtful cut with a verse about her child Namiko (heard in the background and on the hook) and the difficulties of raising her as a mom who’s also an entertainer. With pattering piano keys leading the way, Aiko looks back, thinking, “I’ve lived well/ Maybe I have made mistakes and been through my fair share of pain/ But all in all, it’s been okay.” As the album nears its end, it seems like she is finally cracking a smile. Jhene Aiko admires a guy for the bravery it takes to love her, a woman with “scars on my heart.” “If you decide to stay, know that there is no escape,” she warns him.
“Major weed smoke in the air/ Pass it like you just don’t care/ Have you seen my fucks to give?” she asks coldly. Here Aiko deals with a relationship that reaches its end after one too many lies are told.

Gliding along a chill guitar riff, Jhené Aiko sings of the transitions she’s made in her life as a wanderer. After running through a few lines from 50 Cent‘s “Many Men,” she sings, “‘Cause I’m just a prisoner of your army of one/ But I’ll fight till the death or until your heart is won.” Singer-songwriter James Fauntleroy woos with backing vocals, filling out the hearty track.
