Ab Soul's song "The Book of Soul" is without a doubt one of his most well known and most acclaimed songs, dealing primarily with the sudden death of his longtime girlfriend, Alori Joh. This line is short and simple, but is another similarity we see between Soul and Job. Satan and Show Business: Lauren London’s Sacrifice? It's not just about his suffering, and he realizes that.
