Asake “Lonely At The Top” Song/Lyrics Breakdown
In verses 1 and 2, Asake points out that one of the things that people experience when they are chasing money and becoming successful is loneliness. This is because you stay focused and spend more time on things that would fetch you money.
According to Asake, his goal is still to make more money regardless of what people gossip about him. Asake says no one can pursue his goal for him.
He wants the freedom to do whatsoever he wants with his money. He wants to flirt, get intoxicated, and live his life to the fullest.
In the pre-chorus and chorus, Asake sings about his desire to live his life to the fullest without any limitations and without caring what people say. Since he can only live once, he desires to enjoy his life every day, do whatever he likes, and not what people like. He wants to flirt and make more money. In fact, he said his ears have been cut off to gossip.

No dey find anybody na money I want (Me I want) [I am not looking for anybody, it is money I want.]
No dey hear wetin people dey talk (People dey talk) [I don’t hear what people are saying.]
Won ti ge Asake l’eti lo (L’eti lo) [They have cut off Asake’s ears.]
