Here is Soja Lyrics Meaning by Black Sherif. The song represents Black Sherif’s external struggle with insecurityÂ
Black Sherif Soja Lyrics Meaning
Black Sherif Soja Lyrics meaning implies a situation where Black Sherif is battling with his own anxiety and inferiority complex because he faces a situation much greater than he can handle. That situation is himself.
Yes, it sounds crazy.
But Black Sherif points to how there are so many things that his mind feeds on that at the end of the day, he is left staring at so much emptiness.
According to Black Sherif, this emptiness is able to make any man feel absolutely unworthy regardless of how highly they think of themselves before.
Also, Soja Lyrics meaning by Black Sherif, at the beginning, states that there is a mystery box inside of him that he canât explain- hence the mystery.
This particular mystery box juices him up and makes him feel weird, but the kind of weird that makes you feel good.
Meanwhile, Black Sherif states that while he feels good inside, he feels much more terrible outside because of his own personal convictions. There is so much his body outside is battling with that it stops the work of the mystery box inside.
This is a situation of âfeeling good inside but feeling shitty outsideâ. No matter how hard he tries, Black Sherif says that he canât make the mystery box in him make him feel good on the outside.Â
Also, Black Sherif jumps to another part where we see that the song is majorly about standing upright and being on the watch no matter the hard things you are going through.
People donât need to know that, because once they do, you are caught off guard and they can throw anything at you.

This is why Black Sherif refers to himself as a Soja who must stand up, beat his chest and prevent any form of physical or emotional attack against him.
He even proves that people will always come for you once they realize that youâve lost your morale. He therefore cites the example of his brother (perhaps a friend) whose spirits have been dampened and has therefore been buried by the cold streets (people who run the streets) because he lost the power of his spirit.
Black Sherif is a song about internal and external conflict/struggles that human beings face within and outside themselves which makes them feel really insecure about themselves

Delivery
Black Sherif has always been strong on song delivery because of how highly personal his songs are. It is therefore not surprising that his new song- Soja depicts how much of what he is feeling as articulately as possible.
We grab onto every lyric because there is so much to glean from the song based on the meaning portrayed in Soja.
Relatability
If there is something about Black Sherifâs Soja, it is the sheer Relatability. Literally everyone of us goes through the part where we find ourselves struggling based on the issues of anxiety, inferiority and insecurity because we donât find ourselves enough or strong enough for the situations that challenge us.
However, this is a song of encouragement from Black Sherif. We should be our own Soja, and thatâs it. Because if we donât, we find ourselves staring down the barrel of a gun, waiting to be rescued.
