Describing herself as "not your ordinary girl" Jaya believes that there is that special thing inside of her. Too special to be kept to herself she is passionately driven to share it with the world through her music. At under 20 years old, Jaya admits to having had her fair share of experiences, but her greatest joy to date is finding Jesus Christ and beginning to develop a deep and profound relationship with HIm. There's not turning back this DIva in the making - purposeful accomplishment is her mission.
Msamaha is a Swahili word meaning forgiveness. Inspired by both God and her mother. Jaya wrote this song on realization the true inner joy is not found when we block out/suppress emotions and experiences that bring us sadness in pretense that all is well. Instead by getting rid of our inhibitions and freeing our hearts peace and inner joy is achieved. She has found her purpose in life and is ready to be the fearless influencer of society that she was created to be, by doing that which she was created to do.
Lyrics
Maneno, matendo, mawazo, mwenendo wangu
Haya yote yalinisaliti, niligeuka nikawa tofauti
Yale ya jana yalipita, tugange ya leo
Kila mtu anahitaji msamaha
Aaaaa, nilikosa, aaaaaa, najua
Aaaaa, nilikosa, lakini najua nahitaji msamaha
Huruma, amani, mapendo, sikuwa navyo
Roho yangu ilijaa hofu, moyo wangu ulikosa majibu
Sikuwa na wa kushika mkono siteleze
nilitaka malaika anitosheleze
Aaaaa, nilikosa, aaaaaa, najua
Aaaaa, nilikosa, lakini najua nahitaji msamaha
Nimebadilika, na sasa naomba msamaha
Nataka kusema pole... Nisamehe!!
Aaaaa, nilikosa, aaaaaa, najua
Aaaaa, nilikosa, lakini najua nahitaji msamaha
