Yeh
Niko hapa kuwapa muziki mzuri
Wako hapa tu kuwa famous
Ama juu waliskia ma rapper hupendwa na madem bas
Wanajiita lyricists kwa hizi interviews
Na mimi tu ndio nimetoa lyric video
Ika hit a million views how
Ati Nyash hii area si ulikam na ubaya
Iko watu husema heri hata ungekwamia Ulaya
Umerudi wasanii wakaanza kuambiwa retire
Secular lakini unaandika gospel fire
Si live a lie
Najua nta-sound kama niko ma drei
But juzi walai
Nilipanda matatu na Trey na siuzi mayai
Nimetoka mbali aisee na siishi Rongai
True story!
Klepto si mtarudiana lakini
Hatujai achana tunaruadiana kwa nini
Na machali wa Inshalla mi na vijana wawili
Tutazidi sana kando na kukosana niamini
Tusipimane akili mi na kichaa
Waambie waache kujichokesha ulimi
Mi ndo teacher
Enyewe manze wataacha lini kujichocha
Juu ni clear tukisimama

Najua ikilia ni mtu anataka favour tu
Kila converstation ni ka Deja Vu
Maisha imejaa na watu fake si uongo
Na visu zakunidunga nkiwageuzia mgongo
Washa sense ntakafunga so wananyemelea
Siezi afford kumwaga unga najitegemea
Sieki imani kwa binadamu mimi
Naeka imani kwa God si kwa sanam mimi
Ah ka sikupendi sikufichi
No pretending hata simu zenu mi sishiki
N'kuwe pissed kwa nini
Siko pissed, niamini mi niko bien
Na go through vitu real ka nyinyi mimi pia
Maybe tu argue beats au beer
Hatuezi argue iko rapper anatoa hits ka mimi

Aminia Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration
Released with a compelling visual narrative on May 16, 2017, Nyashinski's "Aminia" marked a significant moment in Kenyan music, reaffirming his presence and artistic integrity after his return. The song arrived amidst anticipation and scrutiny, addressing perceptions, industry dynamics, and personal experiences with directness and characteristic lyrical depth. It immediately resonated with listeners, highlighted by the mention of the lyric video itself achieving a million views, underscoring the audience's engagement with his words.
Lyrically, "Aminia" serves as a powerful statement of authenticity and confidence. Nyashinski contrasts his approach, focused on quality music and meaningful lyrics, with others he perceives as seeking fame or superficial validation. He directly confronts criticisms and whispers about his return from abroad, asserting that his presence disrupted the status quo and prompted a shift in the landscape. The line "Secular lakini unaandika gospel fire" speaks to the profound and impactful nature of his writing, suggesting a spiritual or deeply moving quality transcends genre labels.
The song delves into themes of trust, loyalty, and the challenges of navigating relationships and the music industry. Nyashinski touches upon the enduring bond with his former group Kleptomaniax and the solidarity with his close circle. He expresses a weariness with superficial interactions and fake people, describing the pain of betrayal. This experience leads him to place his faith not in fellow human beings, but in a higher power, stating clearly, "Naeka imani kwa God si kwa sanam mimi" (I place my faith in God, not in idols). This declaration introduces a strong element of spiritual reliance amidst the complexities of the world he describes.
"Aminia," which translates to "Believe" or "Agree," functions as a recurring refrain, a demand for acknowledgment and acceptance of the truths he is presenting. It’s an assertion of his position as a leader ("Mi ndo teacher") and a challenge to doubters. The confidence woven throughout the verses culminates in the affirmation that his ability to consistently produce hits is unparalleled, inviting the listener to simply "Aminia" – believe it. The song’s philosophy, captured in the line "don't worry chema chajiuza" (don't worry, good things sell themselves), suggests a focus on quality and substance will ultimately prevail without needing excessive self-promotion or external validation. This message, combined with the reliance on faith, offers an inspirational perspective on perseverance and integrity in the face of adversity and skepticism.
