What is the song “Ogo Forever” by Portable about?

The word Ogo when translated to English means “Glory or Glorious.”

Portable calls himself a glorious child after a tremendous turnaround in his life; from nobody to somebody, from nothing to something. 

He reverences God and his miraculous works in his life.

He is thankful to God for blessing him and making him famous. He prays that all his wealth, the blessings to remain forever, that he should be glorious forever, and not just a day, a week, or a year. He is also thankful to God for making him happy, waking him up with happiness and blessings. He is also thankful to God for defending him when people tried to bring him down, looking for his downfall.

Meaning of some words

Every disappointment is a blessing: This means some failures, regrets, mistakes, setbacks, and so on can end up leading to one’s breakthrough if one is resilient and optimistic.
