Plastic People
(Hook)
Plastic people, they crack when the heat come,
Fake love vanish quick when the beat drum.
Real ones ride forever, keep the circle tight,
Cut the hollow out my life, only steel in sight.
(Verse 1)
Fake friends everywhere—school, work, maybe kin,
Smile in your face, but they hate when you win.
Eight hundred followers, none stream my track,
But post a mindless vid, want me runnin’ it back.
Used to sip a brew, share stories in the night,
Now they scroll right past, not a comment in sight.
Plastic souls, silicone grins on they face,
They here for the season, not the marathon race.
(Hook)
Plastic people, they crack when the heat come,
Fake love vanish quick when the beat drum.
Real ones ride forever, keep the circle tight,
Cut the hollow out my life, only steel in sight.
(Verse 2)
We was once tight, promised never to switch,
But silence built a wedge, loyalty got ditched.
If I don’t call first, I’m erased, just a ghost,
Funny how they vanish when you need ’em the most.
See, real friends pull you up when you drownin’ in despair,
Stand ten toes down, yeah, they always there.
But the plastic ones crack, fold fast under strain,
Worthless like a dollar bill dipped in the rain.
(Hook)
Plastic people, they crack when the heat come,
Fake love vanish quick when the beat drum.
Real ones ride forever, keep the circle tight,
Cut the hollow out my life, only steel in sight.
(Verse 3)
I keep my circle small, loyal ones never cheap,
Solid bond, cut deep, like tattoos on the street.
Plastic people play roles, puttin’ on a disguise,
But truth always surface, can’t hide fake eyes.
I don’t beg for no clout, don’t chase no trend,
I’m a rider, not a follower, I’m built for the end.
So keep your masks and your lies, your social façade,
I walk with the real—my word, my bond.
(Hook – Outro)
Plastic people, they crack when the heat come,
Fake love vanish quick when the beat drum.
Real ones ride forever, keep the circle tight,
Cut the hollow out my life, only steel in sight.
