Look

I grew up in a good but a changin' age

My wife and kids - Damon Wayans

When the youth club was everybody’s favourite place

Where if you spoke to a girl then it was face-to-face

Bruh, I seen the heart of the 'hood turn trendy

Kids lose interest

Parks turn empty

Social media's got us all less friendly

Now, can’t you see the irony?

She's got game when she types to me but nothing in person, that ain't the type for me

Asking "Can we go for dinner yet?" in the flesh

No convеrsation, no intellect

The future generation of the children of the internet

Look

It's all change an' I'm seeing it now

You can meet a hundred people without leaving your house

Puttin' pictures in a frame, a memory in the clouds

You know everybody keeps their memories in the cloud

We finally found a voice and we ain't speaking as loud

People only wanna listen to the sheep and the crowd

An’ any other statement gets you cancelled by an activist that’s never helped the cause that they're tweeting about

Do you blame public figures and personalities, for giving the li’l kids a warped views of reality?

Or blame all o' the apps that make a killing on finding the sweet spot in your self-hate and vanity?

Could you argue that it's borderline dangerous to take a picture of a girl's face and start changin’ it?

With one quick filter, your nose looks thinner

Your eyes look fuller

Your lips look bigger

Your software's better and your phone knows everything

If anything, it's getting George Orwell-ian

Look

It's all connected, nobody's protected

From business collectives, your info's collected

Children of the internet

Your info collected

As a species, we now have to redefine what it means to be connected

Children of the internet

A recent study shows the average person earnestly swipes, taps, pinches their phone a million times a year

Your info collected

People feel naked, inadequate and utterly vulnerable without their phone

It's a primary conduit of personal, social and work life

Children of the internet

There are more active cell phones on the planet than people

The mobile phone is both a connection and disconnection device, and is typically placed between the human and its surroundings

Tuning the surroundings out
