Material Things
I know you look for validation
And lately it's become your medication
A parrot that repeats the conversation
José and a J for inspiration
You been bendin' over for reactions
Anything for superficial satisfaction
Another shot just to put you back in action
While you're posting up your rage
Someday the world moves on without you
Dare to see that it's not always all about you
So tell me what matters, material things
Yeah maybe they flatter, but what else do they bring
Oh what would it take to, get out of your head
Leo or Cancer, you won't find an answer if you're playing pretend
The Dunning-Kreuger really takin' over you
You're playin' everyone who still believes you
So find another sucker for your voodoo
To trap in your charade
Someday the world moves on without you
Dare to see that it's not really all about you
So tell me what matters, material things
Yeah maybe they flatter, but what else do they bring
All of your close friends have left you on read
It keeps you awake when you're baked in your bed
So why does it matter, and where does it end
You're climbing the ladder, possessed by the trends
Faster and faster, testing the edge
So tell me what matters, do you have an answer, that you can defend
Leo or Cancer, you won't find an answer if you're playing pretend
Here's a silver platter, you're missin' your manners, it's all pretend
And lately it's become your medication
A parrot that repeats the conversation
José and a J for inspiration
You been bendin' over for reactions
Anything for superficial satisfaction
Another shot just to put you back in action
While you're posting up your rage
Someday the world moves on without you
Dare to see that it's not always all about you
So tell me what matters, material things
Yeah maybe they flatter, but what else do they bring
Oh what would it take to, get out of your head
Leo or Cancer, you won't find an answer if you're playing pretend
The Dunning-Kreuger really takin' over you
You're playin' everyone who still believes you
So find another sucker for your voodoo
To trap in your charade
Someday the world moves on without you
Dare to see that it's not really all about you
So tell me what matters, material things
Yeah maybe they flatter, but what else do they bring
All of your close friends have left you on read
It keeps you awake when you're baked in your bed
So why does it matter, and where does it end
You're climbing the ladder, possessed by the trends
Faster and faster, testing the edge
So tell me what matters, do you have an answer, that you can defend
Leo or Cancer, you won't find an answer if you're playing pretend
Here's a silver platter, you're missin' your manners, it's all pretend
