What does "ono omode" mean?

Tunde (the singer/songwriter) is a traditional Yoruba/Nigerian name, so I'm guessing he's Yoruba, or at least from that lineage anyway.

I'm originally from Nigeria so I understand some of the language and 'ono omode' translates to 'way of a child'.

This translation makes sense and falls in line with people's interpration of the song.
