Here is the Meaning of Dull Lyrics by Asake
Asake Dull lyrics is all about the earnest prayer of the artist to the ‘gods’ and music divinities. Here, the song’s personae is captured in his vulnerability, praying that they should continue to stand by him so that he will not fall off the cliff.
For Asake, it has been a year of massive success as most of his songs have become a hit upon release. So, we understand easily why the Dull is a very personal and lyrical song.
Asake Dull lyrics inform us of the fact the singer himself is aware of his rapid growth and acceptability in the afrobeat fandom since he became a signee under Olamide’s YBNL record label.
The first stanza of Dull lyrics starts off with an apostrophe, which pictured Asake seeking the acts of benevolence from the divine. He confesses that fact that he is nothing on his terms without God.
Furthering on, the singer promises not to keep the gods angry. “I swear I no go dull” he says, because if he does, what will mama eat- “wetin mama go chop?”.
Indeed, Asake has every reason to commit his life and career to God’s hands, because he is still at the wake of his career, when his craft is just in blossom.
Away from that, Asake also sings the praises of his boss, Olamide, who found him and shone a spotlight on him. That is what he implies in stanza two when he says “see my star shine like a diamond” now that Baddo has found me and showed me the way.
That is the meaning of Asake Dull lyrics.
