[Intro]
Every tap
Every scroll
Every laugh
They know
[Verse 1]
Timeline tattletale
Snitch in my palm
Sellin' all my secrets
For a couple lil' hearts (yeah)
Camera in the corner
Camera in the car
Your face is in the cloud
You don't even know you're starred
Mic stay on
Even when the screen sleep
Whisper to a friend
Ads answer in a week
Followed by a ghost
That I never get to see
Algorithm prayin'
On the pieces left of me
[Chorus]
Eyes in the screen, they watch us breathe
Life on a leash, no space to leave
Scroll for a hit, but the hit hits back
Social scam got us stuck in the trap
Every word saved, every move mapped out
We gave 'em the keys just to chase that clout
Used to be free, now we live in a feed
Eyes in the screen
Eyes in the screen
[Verse 2]
Blue check prophets
Preachin' for a brand deal
Friends turned data
Every hug got a tag still
Laugh for the lens
Cry in the drafts
Filters on the face
But the code do the math
"Agree to the terms?"
You ain't even tryna read
Signed away your kids
For a quicker load speed
History on file
From the cradle to the grave
You call it "stay connected"
They call it "keep you caged"
[Chorus]
Eyes in the screen, they watch us breathe
Life on a leash, no space to leave
Scroll for a hit, but the hit hits back
Social scam got us stuck in the trap
Every word saved, every move mapped out
We gave 'em the keys just to chase that clout
Used to be free, now we live in a feed
Eyes in the screen
Eyes in the screen
[Bridge]
Who you tryna be
If they're buildin' you for you? (yeah)
Every choice you think you choose
Already ran a million views
Can you hear your own thoughts
Through the noise, through the fumes?
Or you just another user
That the user now consumes?
[Chorus]
Eyes in the screen, they watch us breathe
Life on a leash, no space to leave
Scroll for a hit, but the hit hits back
Social scam got us stuck in the trap
Every word saved, every move mapped out
We gave 'em the keys just to chase that clout
Used to be free, now we live in a feed
Eyes in the screen
Eyes in the screen (yeah)
