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
