Orun

Song by Ayra Starr

2 mins • 2024

Ayra Starr’s song “Orun” is a vulnerable plea for divine intervention during a period of deep personal struggle. The title, which means “Heaven” or “sky” in Yoruba, sets the stage for her cry to God (“Olorun”) for relief from an unending cycle of pain. The song reflects the hidden weight that comes with success, echoing the Yoruba proverb, “the one who wears the shoe knows where it pinches”.
