Lyrics

Yeah, yo I used to have these ideas and dreams of
What they future would be like as a kid
It sort of went something like this…
I used to wish I could time warp through life forward
And see a cyborg shoot fireballs like Guy Fawkes
But in this real life it's nothing like a child's thoughts
Just cities full of smog, traffic jams and eyesores
So why talk about a future that you thought would happen
When automatically it's nothing like we all imagined
Technology bloomed, blossomed and grew
With innovation changing what we all use
Something we choose to try to make our lives more organised
But when the shit breaks down, you feel it's all a lie
Sort of like a contradictional box we fit in
'Cause you don't want the gimmick, but got all their stock, admit it
A new era of group pressure to be the same
With youth bred to consume every leading chain
So we remain to see these up-and-coming people change
In these rearranging times where kids will never be the same
They got it all at the click of a button
But I'm feeling that I'm doomed every minute that I touch it
They got it all at the click of a button
But I'm feeling that I'm doomed every minute that I touch it
Living the hecticness of this interconnectedness
When we're given the internet and then billions vent on it
Uneducated opinions in a Twitter subjectiveness
Grammatically incorrect in illiterate sentences
In due time we suffer to puerile abundance
Where everything's available, viewed by the public
This era of entitlement fuels my repugnance
With every artist got to face futile redundance
This age of piracy invades my privacy
With shit that don't make sense but stated righteously
And you could stalk me with ways to spy on me
Alone but together you can't escape the irony
Try make us buy an ad via a viral spam
The tangible disappears on their diagram
A human inside a machine like Iron Man
This age brings the play things of idle hands, look
They got it all at the click of a button
But I'm feeling that I'm doomed every minute that I touch it
They got it all at the click of a button
'Cause I'm inclined to know the cycle go like eeny, meeny, miny, moe
I picked it, we're voluntarily followed by GPS
The terms and conditions are pushy like BMX
So reassess the problems often common from the
Technological era that I'm watching
Is the digital man part of sinister plans
Or is it advanced ideas for living expanse
I'm given a glance of future evolutions of man
To be a hunchback figure staring into his hands
They think that I'm a new jack but only if they knew that
They who think wrong are they who can't do that
It's true, I'm from the old school
It's true - old school
They got it all at the click of a button
But I'm feeling that I'm doomed every minute that I touch it
They got it all at the click of a button
But I'm feeling that I'm doomed every minute that I touch it
