Likes Are My Currency

Late at night
The screen's glowin' bright (glowin' bright)
I dive into the feed
It's my lonely flight (lonely flight)
Scrollin' through endless posts
Like a lost soul
For every like I get
It makes me feel whole
Got a thousand friends
But feelin' so alone (so alone)
Locked in this virtual world
It's all that I know
Chasin' validation
Seekin' out the praise (out the praise)
But deep inside
I'm feelin' so misplaced
Likes are my currency (damn currency)
Validation I need (I need)
But it's never enough
And I'm losin' my sanity
I'm caught in this cycle
Can't break free (break free)
Likes are my currency (damn currency)
It's a bittersweet tragedy
Notifications poppin'
Heart starts to race (starts to race)
Another dopamine hit
In this digital space
But when the high fades
Reality sets in (sets in)
Realizin' the emptiness
Of this social media spin
Likes are my currency (damn currency)
Validation I need (I need)
But it's never enough
And I'm losin' my sanity
I'm caught in this cycle
Can't break free (break free)
Likes are my currency (damn currency)
It's a bittersweet tragedy
I am trying to break free
From this digital jail (digital jail)
Seekin' real connections
Beyond this virtual veil
Time to unplug
And rediscover life (rediscover life)
Find joy in the moments
Away from online strife
I wanna break this habit
Find my real self (real self)
Put down the phone
And focus on my health
But the pull is strong
It's hard to resist (hard to resist)
The constant need for likes
An addiction I can't dismiss
Likes are my currency
Validation I need (I need)
But it's never enough
And I'm losin' my sanity
Loggin' off for good
Embracin' the real world (real world)
Findin' my true worth
Beyond the likes and scrolls
Takin' a deep breath
And steppin' away (steppin' away)
From the virtual realm
To seize the day
