Im up late at night
Staring at these fucking Pixels
thinking what's it in this life that picks you
to be so successful cause it's all I see
Seeing another's dreams on my screen
Wondering what does this all mean
Is it encouragement for me
To see where I could be So constantly staring at lights so bright
But I gotta wonder
Do they enhance or blur my sight
All these ones and zeros are too much
Cause I've become numb to my heroes
and im still tripping
I know more people than ever But still so distant
Spend every day reminiscent on the past
While the present is already going so fast
Cause the only depth I get
Is if I've met them in person
Cause online
I know im a different version
So connected but amongst separate sections
Affection though texting just isn't the same
These Letters and emojis only hold me so long
Sometimes it just aint enough
Im in need of some real love
Yeah
Yo it's a damn shame that
these handshakes and clicks of champagne
Just aint the same through a whitened frame
Just screenshots of a perfect moment
Knowing it's a set up
Smiling for the better
No showing those pain behind them eyes
So I never truly know someone's life
and we only see it Though a flash of light
these Timelines are filled with fine lines
And im needing dnms
Only way that im making sense
Is Showing real emotion
Cause what's more effort
Replying to a text and that's it
Or understanding what's happening and
travelling to their spot so they know that you got em
Cause it's easy to get lost in this mess of stress
When it gets the best of you
As media writes this new chapter of history
Its crashing though the atmosphere
And When it lands
At least there'll still be evidence

At least there'll still be evidence
Of what happened here
Cause every minute that we living
Is A constant clicking of the pictures
Low key wishing for the riches
Wishing we were switching damn near everything
just to be different in an instant
Im sickened of how we are living this
The dream is just to ditch it all
say fuck the digital age
cause its aging this mind state
at a rate that I may not appreciate
the Constant poising for the shot is poison
That's the weight
that the gram has on your mind state
If I got pain buying shit won't solve a thing
My tear realistic as it is dripping down my face
Putting distance between us to kill all ma tears yes
Scrolling through my news feed so loosely
It is soothing me
Tuning in and out
Cause
every post that shows is so depressing
I know life is a blessing
But im being desensitised
Cause every time I find the time to read a line
Its outrage this and outrage that
People dying here and dying there man fuck that
real question
Like do you remember what happened last week
Cause the shit is past me
And I guess it's partly because the flaws of humans
That's too involved with how the world is viewing yall
Social media has made us greedier
As we see the bar raised
Doing wild shit for the praise
Growing softer cause we can't handle the hate
And every trend that I see fade
Is just an ode to the ol saying
The only constant is changing
But its rearranging so quickly I can't keep up
Its constantly going and it aint slowing down
For all the shit that happens now every day
It's all the same
Like Shock me there's another shooting in the US
Shock me Russia's doing shady shit with Putin
Shock me and the other thousand things
I don't know about, were fuckin clueless

We in the age of the internet
It's in effect
Your life's been a wreck
just depends how much the world has seen of it
We have everything in the palm of our hands
And people stand for opinion over fact
Fuck that,
Still wanna be ignorant and spin the shit
To fit the bit of your story
That proves it right
Nah im done with that shit
I've lost the plot
This has got to stop
But it's not the fucking end
We're off the deep end at this point
