(_Hook_) The way we be online, stocking, posting are our way to spend time… Be aware from this virtual world, Its nothing but the drag, To zero from One… There are some good to things do, But fake virtuality on your mind (_1st Verse_) I hate social media Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat And all that crap cause Hey? It’s misleading our ******* Generation Look at our youth today They can’t look up from their tabs cause they’re too much obsessed with what’s going on Gossips and all that stupidity Hey, I’ve got a new pair of shoe, I gotta post that And hey, look at That girl on beach Ain’t she cool? I gotta double tap that You see? Our youth are too much engrossed in ‘looking and acting cool’ than in being true To who they really are I mean they’re acting rich online buh those **** Kids are struggling offline And what’s this thing about having friends You’re never going to meet? Not now, not ever? (_Hook_) The way we be online, stocking, posting are our way to spend time… Be aware from this vertual world, Its nothing but the drag, To zero from One… There are some good to things do, But fake virtuality on your mind (_2nd Verse_) Friends who’ll never be there for you Physically or emotionally Friends who will never understand How you really feel Friends from the other side of your screen I mean, **** social media What’s the use of having Four-Thousand friends buh they will never be there for you? What’s the use of uploading Thousands of filtered photos just to look cool? ***** you should get out to the sun, life is perfect, it doesn’t need to be filtered And so, my dear sisters You don’t need that crop top to look beautiful You already are You don’t need that mini-skirt to look fabulous You already are Don’t let social media dictate to you What should be social Don’t feel left out if you can’t afford those heels you saw Natalie with last week Chances are, they were be borrowed Don’t feel left out if you can’t come up with a catchy on fleek nonsense Chances are, it was copy pasted And you know what? Part of the reason why I hate social media is because it has revolutionized our thinking abilities We’re now thinking in terms of likes comments and shares (_Hook_) The way we be online, stocking, posting are our way to spend time… Be aware from this virtual world, Its nothing but the drag, To zero from one… There are some good to things do, But fake virtuality on your mind (_3rd Verse_) **** Social Media It’s sad to realize that people’s worth is now measured in terms of likes It’s sad to realize that you can be a celeb online But a freaking ******* offline You can be a ******* player online But a freaking loser offline Social Media has become a platform of hiding who we really are We’re hiding our traits behind those screens **** Social Media You ain’t giving us a chance To be ourselves Fake accounts, fake profile pictures **** Social Media You’re only giving us a chance To manifest and present Our alter egos And you’re getting it all wrong We’re now more like, who we dream to be Than who we really are (_Post chorus_) I hate Social Media But when all is said and done I’m still gonna post this online Cause at the end of the day? I still want you to subscribe
