Lyrics

Look
 I grew up in a good but a changing age
 My wife and kids,
 Damon Wayne's
 When the youth club was
 Everybody's favorite place
 Where if you spoke to a girl
 Then it was face to face
 Bro I've seen the heart of a hood
 Turn trendy
 Kids lose interest
 Parks turn empty
 Social media has got us all
 Less friendly
 Now can't you see the irony
 She's got game when she types to me
 But nothing in person
 That ain't the type for me
 Askin "Can we go to dinner yet?"
 In the flesh
 No conversation, nor intellect
 The future generation are the children of the internet
 Look
 It's all changing I'm seeing it now
 You can meet a hundred people
 Without leaving your house
 Putting pictures in the frames and memories in the cloud
 You know everybody keeps their memories in the cloud
 We finally found a voice and we ain't speaking as loud
 People only wanna listen to the sheep in the crowd
 And any other statement gets you cancelled by an activist
 That's never helped with the cause they're tweeting about
 Do you blame public figures and personalities
 For giving little kids a warped view of reality
 Or blame all the apps that make a killing
 In finding a sweet spot in your self hating vanity
 Could you argue that it's boarderline dangerous
 To take a picture of a girls face and start changing it
 In one quick filter
 Your nose looks thinner
 Your eyes look fuller
 Your lips look bigger
 Your software is better and your phone knows everything
 If anything it's getting George Orwellian
 Look
 It's all connected
 Nobody's protected from business collectives
 Your info's collected
 (Children of the internet)
 (Children of the internet)
 (Your info collected)
 As a species we now have to redefine what it means to be connected
 (Children of the internet)
 A recent study showed that the average person earnestly
 At least swipes, taps, pinches their phone at least
 A million times a year
 (Your info collected)
 People feel naked, inadequate and utterly vulnerable
 Without their phone
 It's a primary conduit of personal, social, and work life
 (Children of the internet)
 There are more active cell phones on the planet than people
 The mobile phone is both a connection and a disconnection device
 It is typically placed between a human and its surroundings
 Tuning it's surrounding out
