Victims Of The Algorithm
Music written by Dallas Toler-Wade
Lyrics written by Joseph Howard
All work no play still don't have the numbers
Slaving to the daily grind
Keyboard warriors beckoning a reckoning
Gain a following undeserving
Inequality amongst users the gap monumental
Beauty begets beast
Gimmick begets talent
Narcissism flourishes abundantly
While the poverse stay in poverty
Hating their redundant lives
Malcion toward success laboring to the last breath
Achieving almost nothing till their death
Victims of the algorithm
Hate programing
Only negativity
Receiving a reaction
If all is well no need to dwell
The human mind just carries on
Until threatened
No context within text
Misunderstood meaning
Words interpreted as anger
Aggressive retaliation
A system built for discovery and innovation
Reutilized for monetary exploits and mass manipulation
Conspiracies conspire but the theorists give false interpretations
Labeled mentally unstable
The circle of trust forever broken
But who's the untrustworthy?
Patrons fight amongst themselves
Population up in arms at an invisible enemy
Attacking opposing ideology
Succumbing to the equation
Victims of the algorithm
Human nature
Could it be the perilous flaw?
Planned demise before our eyes
Will we grow wise or pay the price
From confrontations over our pride
Too many lost on both sides
Programmed to give us what we want
Drama is in our nature
The battle of miscommunication
False information
The road to devastation
Victims of the Algorithm
The social tension climbs
Twisted perceptions of wrong and right
Forced to choose a side
Violence on the rise
Shut it down
