Ohana

In 'Ohana,' Nastya delves into the concept of chosen family and the transient nature of relationships. The song begins with the artist reflecting on her solitary journey, walking many roads alone. Despite this solitude, she embraced the indecisive people she met along the way, considering them her family. This metaphorical use of 'family' highlights the emotional bonds formed with people who are not related by blood but by shared experiences and mutual support.

The lyrics then shift to a moment of celebration, where Nastya finds herself surrounded by people who claimed to love her. They are enjoying life, making the most of the present, which she sees as a divine gift. This period of joy and togetherness is symbolized by the term 'Ohana,' a Hawaiian word that means family in an extended sense, including friends and other loved ones. However, this happiness is short-lived, as the people who once promised eternal support eventually drift away, leaving her with only a few close companions.

Nastya's song poignantly captures the bittersweet reality of relationships that don't last. She proposes a toast to all the families that don't even last a month, contrasting it with her own experience of a chosen family that lasted over a year but has now dwindled to just three people. This toast is both a celebration of the good times and an acknowledgment of the inevitable end of many relationships. Through 'Ohana,' Nastya explores themes of impermanence, the value of chosen family, and the emotional resilience required to navigate the ebb and flow of human connections.
