Lyrics

Have I lost my mind? Wasting time
Begging for the whole world to subscribe
Did I lose control of my ego?
You know a selfie's never good the first hundred times!

[Pre-Chorus]
Because I'm living my life all through a screen
Filtered friends, yeah I'm loving the dream
No I don't want to wake to a world that is so real
I'm feeding my Me, keep me in this twirl
Looking for likes in a lonely world
Trying to numb my pain just to know that I can feel

[Chorus]
'Cause you know what they say
Hey! We've got the answer!
It's all about me and for my pleasure!
And you know what they say
Hey! It just feels better!
It's all about me, and that's what matters!

Ho! Hey! It's all about me!
Ho! Hey! Da dat, ta da da!

[Verse 2]
Is it worth a post? If I can't boast
About the views and comments that fill my eyes
Stuck in our own bubble. And even if it goes viral
Why can't we speak heart to heart with an open mind?

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm living my life all through a screen
Filtered friends, yeah I'm loving the dream
No I don't want to wake to a world that is so real
I'm feeding my Me, keep me in this twirl
Looking for likes in a lonely world
Trying to numb my pain just to know that I can feel

[Chorus]
'Cause you know what they say
Hey! We've got the answer!
It's all about me and for my pleasure!
And you know what they say
Hey! It just feels better!
It's all about me, and that's what matters!

Ho! Hey! It's all about me!
Ho! Hey! Da dat, ta da da!

[Bridge]
OMG! What's happening to me?
FOMO has kept me ironically
From being all that I could ever really be!
Am I living asleep because I love my screen?
Hashtag friends, am I losing a dream?
Shake me, wake me up to a world that I can feel
It's a feeding frenzy and a dizzy twirl
Lonely for likes in a busy world
We feel so connected but our brokenness is all so real!

[Chorus]
'Cause you know what I say:
Hey! Nothing lasts forever!
Is it all about me, and for my pleasure?
Can't you hear what I say
Hey! Trying to find the answers!
Going to shut my screen and like what really matters!

[Outro]
'Cause you know what I say:
Hey! Nothing lasts forever!
Is it all about me and for my pleasure?
Can't you hear what I say
Hey! Trying to find the answers!
Gonna shut my screen and like what really matters!
Yeah, gonna shut my screen, and share what really matters!
