Im a fan of good music. The kind that hits you in the heart, mind and soul! says Hilary Mwelwa, the next British R and B phenomenon destined to win over American R and B and soul devotees. USA Today declares, Mwelwa's vocals are always enticing while Vibe Magazine heralds Mwelwa's rich, velvety voice warms the inside like a spot of tea. The 20-something year-old chanteuse along with her musical partner Victor Redwood-Sawyerr (co-founder of the award-winning hip hop group Blak Twang), make up Hil St. Soul, one of the hottest groups to emerge from London's underground music scene in recent years. Hil St. Soul has toured with such individual artists as Macy Gray, Angie Stone and D'Angelo.
Smile
Hil St. Soul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For you to hide it from the world
I said your smile looks too good honey
For you to hide it
She's on her Living Single until she find the right man
On her Queen Latifah tryna build that Black Reign
But it keeps pouring trash niggas and white squares
She's falling for the wrong type like
Half the time being alone is bliss the another time she feels like
She deserves the best forever ever not only one night
But her body's reserved
For one that deserves her
But it's absurd
She is so used to curve
That it's been a while since a man
Made her toes curl, ya dig
Looks to good honey
Hide it from the world
Looks to good honey
For you to hide it from the world
I said your smile looks too good honey
For you to hide it from the world
I said your smile looks too good honey
She's on her living single til she find the right
On her Queen Latifah tryna build that Black
She's on her living single til she find the right
On her Queen Latifah tryna build that Black
She's on her living single til she find the right
On her Queen Latifah tryna build that Black
She's on her living single til she find the right
On her Queen Latifah tryna build that Black
Smile looks too good honey
For you to hide it from the world
I said your smile looks too good honey
For you to hide it
I said your smile looks too good honey
For you to hide it from the world
I'm just saying
I'm just saying
From infinity to infinity
Love a black woman that's the mantra
That's the unity
For black reign
That's the answer
U and me
I'm just saying
I said your smile looks too good honey
For you to hide it from the world
I said your smile looks too good honey
For you to hide it from the world
I said your smile looks too good honey
For you to hide it from the world
I said your smile looks too good honey
For you to hide it
The song "Smile" by Hil St. Soul is a soulful, uplifting track that encourages a woman to show off her beautiful smile to the world. The lyrics suggest that the woman may have been hurt in the past by "trash niggas and white squares," and may be hesitant to open up to love again. However, the song also acknowledges that this woman is strong and independent, like the TV character Queen Latifah played in "Living Single," and that she has the power to build a happy, fulfilling life for herself.
The lyrics also touch upon the idea of self-worth and deserving love that is real and not just a one-night stand. The woman's body is "reserved for one that deserves her," indicating that the singer wants her to find a fulfilling, lasting relationship with a man who truly appreciates her.
Ultimately, the song is a celebration of inner strength and resilience, and the power of a simple smile to brighten up the world.
