Throw Back! India Arie - The Truth
As soon as I heard this song I fell in love with it. I appreciated it because it was so positive and had a deep emotional meaning. She praised her man, not because of what he looked like or what he might have brought her. She praised him for who he was, but most of all who he was with her, and what they had together. It's somewhat strange, because I believed every word she sung as if they were sitting right in front of me. I felt the realness, the pureness, the originality. There are so many songs out today, which talk about how man are no good, selfish, womanizers, and dehumanizing themselves even. But listening to this song made you think of men who were proud and respectful of women and themselves. Loving men, powerful men, family men. We need more songs that empower us today. I love it!
