A Memento for Traffic.jam {LIFE} Lyrics by Akinola Pedro

2021

[Part I: Traffic.jam {BARGAIN}]
3, 2, 1!
[Refrain: AkinG Kalld Pedro]
Now everybody throw your hands up and try to the sky
Didn’t you know we fresh to death so niggas never really die
We might never change the world but fuck it, man, we here tonight
Life's a bitch so pull her panties down and toss them to the side
[Hook: AkinG Kalld Pedro, Serenity Karima & JeauxSmeaux]
We want the finer things (we want the finer things)
We want the finer things (we want the finer things)
We want the finer things (we want the finer things)
Wе want the finer things (we want thе finer things)
[Verse 1: AkinG Kalld Pedro]
All the finer things bitch I want the finer things in life
Every luxury, buy my pretty lady lovely ice
Requiem of dreams got me losing sleep like every night
It’s out of reach as I speed in this lane
Feeling like a silly crash course dummy paying his tolls
While bumpy turbulence hit me like potholes
And every blocked road got placed in the same spot (my brain stops!)
While I see my mutual peers on the go
Why the hell do I feel like I’m always moving slow
All a nigga want to do is end his momma’s woes
Buy her cribs and fancy shoes, ones with open toes
Maybe hit the lotto so I have money to blow cause
[Hook]
[Verse 2: AkinG Kalld Pedro]
I’ve been stuck inside this traffic jam driving two miles per hour
Rolling out like Ludacris now everybody sees me
Trying to get her clout to be on everybody’s TV
People never build I feel like everybody’s greedy
I’m married to this game I’m not like everybody leaving
Stuck inside my vanity, can't control my ego
Want the money, and clothes and hoes these goals can be misleading
Conscience asked me what I’m bout
Please enlighten me, is you live on your knees till you deceased like you below six feet
Ten toes deep proceed to your own bad defeats
Decrease every decree, your demise will leave you obsolete
[Hook]
[Interlude: AkinG Kalld Pedro]
We want the finer things
All the finer things
All the finer things in life
All the finer things
[Part II: Memento {ACCEPTANCE}]
[Verse 3: AkinG Kalld Pedro]
Putting all the pieces to the puzzle a mouse running in a maze
I’m losing some hope and all potential, I’m trapped in a box without a case
As I decay and diminish my destiny, I’m dragging down my identity
Through the mud, dirty with a density it’s so thick, metaphors and similes
I’m akin to Anakin while panic and damaging
My legacy all within, I’m battling with life
While gambling, trafficking, I’m jamming and crashing in the car I’m left in I drift to right
I never tampered with death, he never could catch me back when I went
So stiff in ‘03 was planks and cold feet was never no sleep I’m still like a mannequin
I still sleep with a shitty ass paralysis, I can’t blink and miss the prestige
Prioritize and damn motif and penalize and goal I don’t need
And recognize what is mandatory but can’t forget and precious memory
I’m losing slowly like Leonard or Sora unlock with your key and open to life
For any rant on every testimony, nowadays I’m showing acrimony
Life is sweet and sanctimony then turns around and shows hypocrisy
I’m regressing my ways, changing back and repressing my pain
Regretting life but I can’t press replay
In a cycle, I'm stuck in a simulated game that I hate
Or maybe I’m a bitch and just can take all the destruction happening
I won’t let life end in tragedy with my sanity
I must remember that I’m going out of sync, pouring every feeling through this ink
Life threw everything but a kitchen sink, are you listening closely?
[Hook: AkinG Kalld Pedro & Serenity Karima]
We all need mirrors every time, Where was I?
Please rewind and tell me why
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
We all need mirrors every time, Where was I?
Please remind me, tell me why
Oh I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Yeah, uh, yeah, let the drummer get some!
[Instrumentals Interlude]
We all need mirrors every time
Life is a gift, life is a bitch, surrealism shit
[Hook: AkinG Kalld Pedro & Serenity Karima]
We all need mirrors every time, Where was I?
Please rewind and tell me why
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
