Lyrics
Engine hum, a different kind of rhythm, how the city currents flow.
Vendor's call, a sweet song on the humid air so thick,
Earthy dust rise, with laughter quick, every moment feel like a trick.
Oh, Gridlock Groove, we spin and sway, no time for wahala, no way!
Lagos heartbeat, a powerful river delta, making our own bright day.
Mama selling suya, her voice like a river's gentle rush,
Kente cloth flash bright, even when the yellow bus dey push.
Honking symphony, no vex, we find the melody inside,
This shared pulse in our feet, a prayer to the ancestral earth, our guide.
Oh, Gridlock Groove, we spin and sway, no time for wahala, no way!
Lagos heartbeat, a powerful river delta, making our own bright day.
From old stories told, by the ocean's steady tide, abi?
We learn to find the joy, where the spirit cannot hide.
Every car, a little island, in this sea of sound and light,
But our souls connect, make the darkness turn to bright.
Yeah, this Lagos current, it carry us all home,
In this Gridlock Groove, we never truly roam.
