Lyrics
You know me better than my IRLs, yet you treat me like the world
A planet being destroyed and looted, an endless death swirl
I’ve got a thousand x's on X now, you’ll become just another number
Seeing it this time, watching the conversation unfurl
I hide behind the lines I find to make me look like i tried, that I'm fine
Penning this beat got me thinking about how i make worth out of my time
Doomscrolling the socials and destroying my fragile thoughts
All while feeling helpless to help with my small life
I grew up raised by the internet
I was born knowing how to use a cassette
I saw people not for how they present
But for what their agenda is, I just can't take it
HTML
I’m just, in hell
HTML
I’m just, in hell
Being rich is awful, it just makes you complacent
Cash destroying the cells in your brains crucial placement
Removing your humanity and your sense of humility
If i become like that, tell me that I’ve become adjacent
I care way too much to my own fault
People on the net telling me to just stop and halt
Read the headlines and see the horrors with my own eyes
And I obey their words, keeping the joy in my hearts vault
All I do is retweet the voices that aren't mine
Elevating the people's lives experiencing the lies
Watching people get ravaged, physically and mentally
All while I sit in my room composing these rhymes
What happened to the net? When did the fun die?
Why does post irony reign as our way to cry?
I won't stop though, no matter how much it hurts
Because all life is valuable, not just mine
I grew up raised by the internet
I was born knowing how to use a cassette
I saw people not for how they present
But for what their agenda is, I just can't take it
HTML
I’m just, in hell
HTML
I’m just, in hell
Step back for a second, how did this start?
Accessing the world's knowledge with just a phone from walmart?
Don’t get me wrong, it's amazing that you can learn
With a device as cheap and as small as a pop tart
Actions have consequences and i'm a victim
Of seeing the good people, and who done rigged em
The arms race of tech made it easier than ever
To let the poor learn, but also see who tricked em
Use your platform for good, talk in your niche
Spread awareness of the injustice, be a force of change
Be a voice of good, go and be a snitch
And by the way, welcome to the internet, bitch.
