Vin Jay - These Days

{chorus}
Livin' in the world gettin' hard these days
I don’t like anything that i see
Everybody livin' online and it all seem fake
Ain’t nobody else feeling like me
Shit, i’m 'bout to lose my mind 'cause i can’t take it
I’ma need me somethin' real
I don’t wanna waste my life and pray shit changes
I’ma tell y’all the way i feel

{verse 1}
I’m sick and tired of all these fakes on my fuckin' screen
Always acting like they real but nothings what it seems
They only droppin' skits, hopin' that you stop and click
It’s to the point that we’re consumed with this toxic shit
Sacrificing the truth for some entertainment
And i don’t think i gotta dive into the implications
Of algorithms solely controlling the information that we digest
Good way to fuck up a generation
It’s all about an image, don’t worry bout how you living
As long as you getting views, you’ll probably make a killin'
Don’t worry about a critic they’re jealous you’re getting praise
Go harass a couple strangers and post it up on your page
Addictive by design they consistently provide
Anything to grab attention so their businesses can rise
'cause if they don’t their profits gonna instantly decline
Don’t be blinded by the bullshit they slip into your mind
Go

Livin' in the world gettin' hard these days
I don’t like anything that i see
Everybody livin' online and it all seem fake
Ain’t nobody else feeling like me
Shit, i’m 'bout to lose my mind 'cause i can’t take it
I’ma need me somethin' real
I don’t wanna waste my life and pray shit changes
I’ma tell y’all the way i feel

{verse 2}
And every moment of the day we’re just consumed with it
Another fake ass scandal another new gimmick
They told me i should do the same and i’ll advance
They dont want me to be human, they want me to be a brand
This is my life
I don’t want the limelight
I just want the real
Y’all been showin' me the highlights
Living in the twilight zone
Y'all are internet clones
Leave me alone
Swear to god i’d rather be on my own
Than be a product of this fuck shit
More than just reluctant
I’m done with it
Y’all can overdose on consumption of
Bad hoes, fist fights, new trends, clicks, likes
All the cheap thrills just preventing you from livin' life
Instead of watchin' try chasing a dream
'cause all this internet bullshit is fake as can be
To keep it real i’d rather battle with a fatal disease
Than spend my whole fuckin' life with my face in a screen
Come on

{chorus}
Livin' in the world gettin' hard these days

Everybody livin' online and it all seem fake
Ain’t nobody else feeling like me
Shit, i’m 'bout to lose my mind 'cause i can’t take it
I’ma need me somethin' real
I don’t wanna waste my life and pray shit changes
I’ma tell y’all the way i feel
