Verse 1
I got the power Ase
Hail Olodumare
Flow change like Oya
To my fam Modupe
Trafficking African Rituals
I know it’s far from typical
I know they calling it mythical
I just be calling it mystical woo
Black Magic with white fabric
They petrified
I see through the ancestors eyes
You can see it cause you’re westernized
My chain hang for Ogun
That flames lit I’m in tune
That High John is in the air boy
That smoke fills up that room
I’m consumed Alafia
Grant my people with good heath
Don’t talk about but I be about it
You grant my folks with plenty wealth
I walk the path of Esu,
Then I recite and Odu
Two mouths up and two mouths down
Got balancement in my view
Chorus
Oya bring your winds of change power down ASE
Orumilla give me purpose power down ASE
Throw my Obi cool my head power down ASE
Read my Odu Ifa daily power down ASE
Egun got me, Ori, got me
Olorun got me, Suuru got me
Ebo got me, Ajugan got me
Babawa got me, Iyawa got me,
Ago Obi, Ago Obi, Ago Obio
Ago Obi, Ago Obi, Ago Obio
Ago Obi, Ago Obi, Ago Obio
Verse 2
I am the sun and moon
Still I flow like Osun
Ori prayer in the morning
Hands up Olorun
Four pots for Egungun
See my gramps in a room room
Throw the shells to the plate
Meji and Dilogun gun
5 chains on my neck
The ileke they reflect
Yall speak Oyeku
Translation that’s death
Sprinkle a little Aje
Olorun Fu Mi Ire
Okinamoran I’m blowing my hand
I’m pinching the sand wooo
Feed the Obi
Stand with my Ile Igoke
Warrior type I’m Like Ochoci
Shango power come approach me
That’s thunder
For the spirits I conjure
Wake them up from that slumber
You just call my number woooo
Chorus
