“Some Body” delves into the feelings of not being enough for a romantic partner. It captures the anxiety and self-doubt that often accompany dating, with lyrics questioning the depth of a partner’s interest and commitment. Elyssa poignantly expresses these emotions with lines like, “Am I some body to you can I be somebody you run to.” The song reflects her desire to feel valued and loved, rather than just being someone’s occasional comfort.

Her talent has not gone unnoticed, as she has received recognition from esteemed music platforms like Co-Sign Radio and RNB RADAR.
Elyssa’s previous single “Anxiety” resonated deeply with listeners, and with “Some Body,” she continues to share her personal experiences and connect with her audience on a profound level.
