The song "Avaimet Lukoille" by Mikael Gabriel is a collaboration with Finnish rapper Asa. The song addresses various issues and challenges faced by the younger generation in today's society. The lyrics portray Mikael Gabriel's life as a movie, where he feels like everything happens as if scripted, but no one remains in his life anymore. He talks about his desire to stand out and dress differently, but also mentions that what scares the younger generation also scares him. He reflects on how the world has changed since he was brought into it for the first time. Mikael Gabriel expresses his frustration about not being able to change opinions and the pressure to stay silent while others keep adding fuel to the fire. He talks about his personal experiences, such as being judged based on his race, and how the system forces people to fight against each other. He mentions how his mother couldn't have him at home anymore, and how things continue to remain the same for individuals one at a time. Asa's verse in the song expresses the anger and frustration that has replaced substances in people's lives. He emphasizes that they are what key is to a lock, implying that they have the power to unlock something or make a change. He highlights the destructive nature of rap and poetry. Both artists talk about the changing job market and how jobs are becoming automated. They discuss the disconnection of today's youth from the traditional education system. They emphasize the challenges faced by the middle class and how even they are becoming homeless. They question the current state of society, the people around them, and their own identities. The song also criticizes the rap industry for being audacious and superficial, focusing more on English language and commercialism rather than expressing true emotions. They acknowledge the hardships of life and the need to find solutions to overcome them. They encourage individuals to find their own voices and strive for improvement while exploring the world together.
