Asake “Olorun” Song/Lyrics Breakdown
In the pre-chorus and chorus, Asake is giving thanks to God for the great height he has taken him. He says he owes his achievements to God. He says disappointments or intimidation from people should be accepted as God’s will, because one day, things will turn around for you, and those that intimidated you would go into hiding. In his case, those that oppressed him are now hiding and staying away from him. He also says God is the wisest.
In verse 1, Asake is thankful to God for moving him from “Grass to Grace.” God lifted him from the ground, from low level to high level. He changed his status. He recounts how difficult things were extremely difficult for him in 2020, his constant prayers, and how the release of the song “Omo Ope” opened breakthrough doors for him. He is thankful for how far he has come and prays for God’s continuous guidance in the journey to success.
