Good Thing – Asa (Song Of The Day)
Asa is the gift that keeps giving. She is one artist that can tackle serious issues in fun ways, keeping you hooked on every element of the song while ensuring you are fully entertained. Good Thing is a classic example of this.
On Good Thing, Asa talks about refusing to be treated sub-humanly because of your flaws and insecurities. It encourages you to take charge of your life and demand the respect you deserve.
Anyone who will constantly mention to you that they could do better than you, be with someone better than you or they are just managing you is not deserving of even the least version of you.
Such people will openly and secretly, consciously and subconsciously do all in their power to keep you down. They’ll try to ensure you do not get to your full potential. They’ll want to prevent you from ever getting into the spotlight or having your moment in the sun. This is toxic.
Good Thing encourages you to be sure and confident in yourself, come out of any toxic relationship or situation you might find yourself in. Broken wings do heal. It’s time to use your wings, your abilities, your potential to fly again.
As for the video, it is a perfect interpretation of the song and more. It covers the subject of addiction, dependence on others for validation, self-imagery and lack of confidence.
All you ever wanted is on the other side of fear. Really. You are too fly for this.
Good Thing Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Over waiting for you
This plane is leaving without you
‘Cause I am too fly for this
And I have no time for this
I’m not afraid to be honest
I’m not afraid to be on my own
And I am so fine with this
So I’ll be good in no time
[Refrain]
You never knew a good thing
Could’ve had a good thing
Until you lose a good thing
You never know a good thing
(Hey!)
[Verse 2]
Guess you thought you knew me
Guess you thought I had broken wings
But I am too fly for that
So I’ll be good in no time
[Refrain]
You never knew a good thing
Could’ve had a good thing
Until you lose a good thing
You never know a good thing
[Bridge]
(Ooh-la-la-la)
Ka cool fun ah
(Ni-ni-ni-ni-la-la-la)
Oh… ka cool fun ah!
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Ka cool fun ah
(Ni-ni-ni-ni-la-la-la)
Ooh, ka cool fun ah!
[Outro]
Over waiting for you
This plane is leaving without you
‘Cause I am too fly for this
So I’ll be gone in no time
