Outro
Souls of Mischief Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah
Our Souls are in tact
Our Stoney is lonely
And Womack, well, he ain't coming back
You know
When a war is waged

The rage of a mother's loss can turn a zero into a hero
But in this case, I'll let you decide
Thank you for tuning in




This is your host Ali Shaheed signing off once again
And you've been listening to K-NOW

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are the final lines of the song Outro by Souls of Mischief. The first line, "Our Souls are in tact," is a nod to their group name and represents that they remain strong and united. The following line, "Our Stoney is lonely," refers to their friend Stoney Jackson, who was originally part of the group but left before they recorded their first album. The line "And Womack, well, he ain't coming back" is a bit more complicated. Bobby Womack was a legendary soul singer and songwriter who passed away in 2014. The line could be a tribute to him, referencing how his music and influence will live on but also acknowledging the finality of death.


The next two lines introduce the idea of a war and how a mother's loss can be a catalyst for someone to become a hero. This could be interpreted in a few ways, but it could be suggesting that the group has faced obstacles and challenges throughout their career, and they've persevered through it all. The final lines of the song see the host Ali Shaheed signing off, thanking the listeners for tuning in to K-NOW, which is presumably a fictional radio station.
