[Jhené Aiko - Jhene Aiko Official Bio lyrics]
I am not this image i am not my name
(Jhene Aiko Efuru Chilombo) i am not my age
(March 16 1988) i am not my ethnicity
(Japanese, African American, Native American
Etc…) i am not where I was born and raised
(Los Angeles, California)
I am not my mistakes and misfortunes
I am not what I have gained and have lost
I am
A mother to a beautiful girl named Namiko
A baby sister to 3 brothers
3 sisters and a big sister to 1
The daughter of Christina Yamamoto
And Karamo Chilombo
But more relevantly, the Daughter of Water
Earth and the Sun i signed to Epic
TUG as a 12 year old child
And asked to be released from
Both companies at the
Age of 16 to finish high school i
Escaped the made up world
Of Hollywood to experience
The natural beauty of the real world
I am a writer, so I never stopped writing
I am a singer, so I never stopped singing
I am a student of life
So I never stopped learning and experiencing
Shortly before I conceived my daughter
I stepped back into the field and took
A meeting with a label head in
This meeting, I was innocently told
To "sell" myself "when walking
Into these meetings"
That’s when I decided I would sail my
"self" rather than sell my "self"
About a year and a half later
I conceived my second child "sailing soul
(s) ", with the amazing
Los Angeles based producers, fisticuffs
Sailing soul
(s) is my first of many offerings to any
And everyone who will listen
And pay attention
The message is a simple one: love yourself
In this moment, love this moment
Know this moment as truth
Be this moment sail you’re soul
Don’t sell you’re sou
It's the only thing we can take with us
Where ever it is we go
"souled out" coming soon to be continued
