Keeping my head down these days

I scroll and swipe and comment always checking out your scene
We pretend we really care but I think it's dopamine
I See the headlines change like the phases of the moon
The media sells me outrage and the list to cancel soon

I try to hide in plain sight and say all the current things
It doesn't pay to state your mind the trolls are in the wings
Everyone's talking but I think its noisy vomit
It's not even your opinion, just the hot topic

I'm keeping my head down these days
Had enough of everyone in this social maze
Just checking in with my self-picked family
These times we livin' grind you down, that's the new world guarantee

It used to be so freeing to walk the city streets
But A I watches everything even company you keep
If you mention something in a chat or say it to a friend
Ads popping second later with those items in a trend

Everyone is selling self it's the coin we use today
I hope with no eye contact it will just go away
Holding close to my roots, the things that make me me
I don't need all that shit, and the hidden cost is pricey

I'm keeping my head down these days
Had enough of everyone in this social maze
Just checking in, with my self-picked family
These times we livin' grind you down, that's the new world guarantee

It's a crowded world but lonelier than it's ever been
Filters Bullshit Fakes and Catfish fighting for your spend
If you try and keep up with all the trendy fashions
It eats the you thats deep inside and steals a little passion

I'm keeping my head down these days
Had enough of everyone in this social maze
Just checking in, with my self-picked family
These times we livin' grind you down, that's the new world guarantee
