[Verse]
In the glow of the screen, I'm a ghost in the wires
Echo chamber thoughts, amplifying desires
They worship green paper, false gods on the pyre
But I'm drowning in silence, my soul’s feeling tired
A mansion of emptiness, gold-plated walls
Echoes so loud, can't escape these halls
The clock hands laugh, time stalls, time crawls
Digits stack high, but the heart just falls
[Chorus]
Money ain’t life, it’s a chain, it’s a tether
Evil grows roots when we worship the treasure
Lonely in the crowd, man, I’m lost in the weather
Money ain’t life—it’s a fool’s endeavor
[Verse 2]
Scrolling through faces, but none seem alive
Filters and masks, just pixels that thrive
Heart’s out of service, call won’t survive
Lost the connection, no signal to revive
Empty conversations, got no translation
Speaking in codes, but no communication
Fake celebrations, hollow vibrations
Fame’s a mirage in a desert of frustration
[Prechorus]
They don’t understand what life’s about
I scream in my head, but the sound don’t shout
They stack their bills, I’m drowning in doubt
