Lyrics

[Intro]
Get the fuck up
Yeah
[Verse 1]
All that I see in the face of what you wanna be is a cleverly manicured fake
Just a cliche in a roleplay, runnin' on praise 'cause irrelevance has no shame
Lie
'Cause you know that it's toxic
Beg
'Cause you can't help yourselves
Breed
A parasocial disease at the hands of a screen you know so well
[PreChorus]
You're mine, motherfucker
So come and get it, come and get it
When you fall, I'll be there as you hit the bottom
I am death by engagement
[Chorus]
So fuck you
You falsify truth to fabricate views
'Cause without 'em, you're nothing
So get fucked or shut the fuck up
I will never bow down to a platform of puppets playing god
Go
[Verse 2]
Fear the pressure, feel the noise
Feed the vultures to fill the void
Farm deception, fuel the trend
Like a moth to a flame, you would burn for the content
Lie
'Cause you know that it's toxic
Beg
But you can't help yourselves
Cast your curse in the comments
[Chorus]
So fuck you
You falsify truth to fabricate views
'Cause without 'em you're nothing
So get fucked or shut the fuck up
I will never bow down or submit to the judgement of powerless puppets playing god
[Bridge]
Cash in all your clicks, let the drama dig a goldmine
Desperate for a fix as your pixel-perfect well dries
Grovel like a bitch on your knees for the applause
Lick the fucking dirt off my boots like a good dog
Blegh
[Outro]
Cash in all your clicks till you're rich off the ragebait
Worthless on your own, just a slave to the hot take
Grovel like a bitch on your knees for the applause
Lick the fucking dirt off my boots like a good dog
