I can’t help but cut people off on a daily basis
All ethnicities from all places. All races have a broken homeostasis
Negativity seems to be filling peoples faces
When did complaining become a trend , gossip from your best friend, filters have come alive and taken over peoples real lives.
Small noses big lips, fat injected ass and hips. LIPO abs and oversized breast… not to mention the rest .
This is life at one’s best, surgeries , filters, negative vocabulary, lack of responsibility, loneliness and isolation, self discrimination.
What has the world come to today
People don’t say hello or smile,
They stare down at their phone and scroll
Don’t realize the toll,
Fantasy versus reality
Communication and positivity can take us a long way
But today
Society wants to play
People buy things they can’t afford
And shop at stores with credit cards and drive cars that cost more then they get paid , wondering how they will get by on their next pay day.
And the more you educate yourself the harder it is to befriend others
The more you see through their insecurities
The more you recognize they lack happiness and liberty
Do you love yourself or just play the part?
Do they see the real you or a filtered heart?
Do you know who you are when it’s quiet and dark,
Or you hide behind the screen, never showin’ your scars?
“Chorus”
Mask on tight, yeah, lost in the media,
Smiles online but alone in the real world interior,
Look in the mirror—tell me what you see clearer,
Is it you… or the mask gettin’ nearer?
People believe it’s still Covid
They still wear a mask
Only the mask they wear is to hide their self because some how they believe they are the filter they stare at them selves
On Snapchat, TikTok, instagram and every other social media app that has broken their self esteem
They’re no longer who they see in the mirror
The mirror hosts a reflection of a ghost with no friends or real relationships
This is so simple to change
But people choose to be delusional and desire to live in an illusional life.
Emotions for me have turned to logical mindset
It prevents all these things I just mentioned from the effect.
And I can reflect on the change of the brain and the amount of dopamine
I consume and abuse the ones I keep
Because we sew what we reep
And if we want change
We must take a leap of faith and keep those in our reach in positivity and make sure they see
The beauty in reality
Love who they are genetically
“Chorus”
Do you love yourself or just play the part?
Do they see the real you or a filtered heart?
Do you know who you are when it’s quiet and dark,
Or you hide behind the screen, never showin’ your scars?
Mask on tight, yeah, lost in the media,
Smiles online but alone in the real world interior,
Look in the mirror—tell me what you see clearer,
Is it you… or the mask gettin’ nearer?
