“Fable” is an emotional tribute to Gigi’s sister, Celene, who passed away in 2020. She talks about religious doubt, love, and eventually reaches some spiritual clarity.
Her first release since “Sailor Song” rose to popularity in mid-2024, some fans believe “Fable” to be a response to the criticism...
[Verse 1]
Fable and truth
Direct me to someone who gives me the juice and new rules
Someone to tell me we're not born to be mules in this
Everything, it contradicts
[Verse 2]
Hedges of prayer
'Cause you believe, doesn't mean that it's there, it's so rare
It's so rare that somebody'd look out for you (Look out for you, look out for you)
Thoughts and prayers was all they'd do (All they'd do, they'd do, they'd do, they'd do)
[Verse 3]
When I lifted her urn
Divinity says, "Destiny can't be earned or returned"
I feel when I question my skin starts to burn
Why does my skin start to burn?
[Verse 4]
Ah-ah, capital loss
Love was the law and religion was taught, I'm not bought
Feel when we argue our skin starts to rot
Our skin starts to rot
[Interlude]
Oh (Hi, um, hi, these are my two sisters)
(This is going on YouTube so don't embarrass me)
(Okay, let me show them my real face)
Oh (You can sing any song you want)
(Give me the camera, give me the camera, give me the camera)
(You start singing, Mama, you start singing, Mama)
(Ah, okay)
(Sing a song, okay)
[Verse 5]
So share me your plan
If I implore you, could I be your lamb? Understand
I look for the truth in the back of your hand, and I
Look into the open sky
[Outro]
Stars blink like my sister's eyes (Hey, princess, it's Celi, I'm just calling you to wish you luck on your performance at the café)
Stars blink like my sister's eyes (Um, I love you, you're gonna kill it, bye, baby)
Stars blink like her eyes
Like her eyes
I dream of eternal life
I dream of eternal life
