Στίχοι

[Verse 1]
Look, I grew up in a good but a changing age
My Wife and Kids, Damon Wayans
When a youth club was everybody's favorite place
Where if you spoke to a girl then it was face to face
Bro, I've seen the heart of the hood turn trendy
Kids lose interest, parks turn empty
Social media's got us all less friendly
Now can't you see the irony?
She's got game when she types to me
But nothing in person, that ain't the type for me
Asking, 'Can we go for dinner?'
Yet, in the flesh, no conversation or intellect
The future generation are the children of the internet
[Verse 2]
Look, it's all changing, I'm seeing it now
You can meet a hundred people without leaving your house
Putting pictures in the frames and memory in the clouds
You know everybody keeps their memories in a cloud
We finally found a voice and we ain't speaking as loud
People only want to listen to the sheep in a crowd
And any other statement gets you cancelled by an activist
That's never helped the cause that they're tweeting about
Do you blame public figures and personalities
For giving little kids a warped view of reality?
Or blame all of the apps that make a killing
In finding the sweet spot in your self hate and vanity
Could you argue that it's borderline dangerous
To take a picture of a girl's face and start changing it
In one quick filter, your nose looks thinner
Your eyes look fuller, your lips look bigger
Your software's bettering, your phone knows everything
If anything, it's getting George Orwellian
Yeah
It's all connected
Nobody's protected from business collectives
Your info's collected
[Verse 3]
As species, we now have to redefine what it means to be connected
A recent study showed that the average person
Earnestly swipes, taps, pinches their phone a million times a year
People feel naked, inadequate, and utterly vulnerable without their phone
It's primary conduit of personal, social and work life
There are more active cellphones on the planet than people
The mobile phone is both a connection and disconnection device
It is typically placed between the human and its surroundings
Tuning the surroundings out
