[Verse]
Back when I was a kid
Life was cardboard squares and dice rolls
Cheap thrills for cheap souls
Now it’s cameras in my face
Every move a damn disgrace
[Prechorus]
Can't rewind can't pause
Trapped inside their claws
[Chorus]
Now it’s a reality show
Lights so bright they burn my skin
No escape no letting go
Signed my name and locked me in
Reality show reality show
Where’d my life go?
[Verse 2]
Back when I was a kid
Dreams were loud and free
Now they script my misery
No more hide-and-seek
Just fake smiles and critique
[Prechorus]
Lost my voice lost my fight
Every day’s another night
[Chorus]
Now it’s a reality show
Lights so bright they burn my skin
No escape no letting go
Signed my name and locked me in
Reality show reality show
Where’d my life go?
