Asake “Awodi” Song/Lyrics Breakdown
In the chorus, Asake uses the Yoruba proverbs to point out people trying to equate themselves with you, just the same way the eagle tries to equate itself with God because it soars/ it is upward.
According to Asake, people feel they can do what you can do, or, they are getting the same recognition as you, so, pride takes over them, and they somewhat desire your downfall. Asake however disappoints them by letting them know that he will never experience downfall. He says he is never going down because he is resilient, smart, and consistent. He says he is up and doing, and he is in the lead. He also says it is not easy striving to be at the top, and one can’t decide to go back even if one is yet to achieve his or her goal.
In verse 1, Asake narrates his experiences so far. He is thankful to God for lifting him from the low level to the top level. He said in 2022, his album impressed people, and left them in ecstasy. He also sings about his significance in the music industry and otherwise.

Emi ko, awon ko, won o le t’olorun [It is not me, it is not them, they are not equal to God.]
Isu jo’ba lo ri iyan [Yam is king over pounded yam.]
