Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Olamide's song Fori Fori reflect the perspective of a person who is apologetic for their actions, despite being guided by religious teachings. The opening line, "Kilo fa fori fori," which translates to "What's the problem with being impatient?" sets the tone for the song. The individual expresses that they acted out of impatience and regrets their actions to the extent that they apologize to those who they have wronged, saying "toba jemi ni I am sorry" - if I offend you, I am sorry.

The lyrics also reference religious teachings, as the person mentions that the Bible instructed them to pray for their enemies. They indicate that they have taken this advice, imploring Jesus to "gba won o" - take them (enemies) away. Despite this attempt to follow religious teachings, the individual admits to being called an "ashawo" (prostitute). This is possibly because they do not conform to societal expectations or behave in ways that are considered moral or acceptable. However, they also disclose that they do not covet earthly possessions, as all they "envy with, oruko won jawo" - is their name (reputation). The closing line, "Olamide aja arun tio gboogun" - Olamide the disease-free dog - may suggest that the singer is impervious to criticism.
