Information speeds around at a frightening rate
Technology we made is no more our mate
We fight to be informed; to be up to date
While being defined by the things we create

Everything you say or do is stored in the web
One wrong move and boom, you're dead
Forsaking the truth and opting for fake lives instead

Welcome to Gen Z
The age of technology
Living 21st century; it's so free
Yet feeling so empty

Smiling at the camera, while crying inside
Through AI, our creativity died
Trying to keep up with the times and flow with the vibes
Not knowing the vibes have taken over our minds

Being ruled by the music we hear
Now our songs of joy has turned to tunes of despair
Only when it comes to reputation do people care
And for that same reputation, they let go of what they hold dear

The advent of Internet has stuck like glue
Through WWW, evil things have come through
It might have its good uses, but those are few
While the bad ones multiply all around you

I sometimes miss the times of the Israel and Moses
The times when people didn't poke their noses
E'en though I know it wasn't a time of beds of roses
At least that time, we knew exactly the threat information poses

But now we are in Gen Z
No one and nothing is trustworthy
Living 21st century; it's so free
Yet feeling so empty
