Dear SJ (Explicit)

作词 : Alex Gough

作曲 : Alex Gough

Dear SJ, how did you do it?

How'd you make the people so hooked?

I want them hooked to the music

Take it in in a drip, it's an emotional trip

I wish everyone heard this **** like I do in my dreams

It breaks at the seams

And I can't keep it in

I can't contain the feeling of finally releasing my friend

I'm out on the edge, it's time to take the leap

And finally leave it down, and take the world instead

I've got zero problems with admitting I've got one

I do my best to change but the world is revolving

Around the thing that distracts me the most

Yeah, I don't think I'll shake it 'til I give up the ghost

I don't need it

I don't need it

Don't need it, don't need it

I don't need it

I can put it down whenever I like (whenever I like)

I swear it doesn't take up like half of my time

I don't need it

I don't need it

Don't need it, don't need it

I don't need it

I can put it down whenever I like (whenever I like)

I swear it doesn't take up like-

And dear replay, how'd you make them do it again?

I wanna keep them at it 'till the inevitable end

I wanna see them crying, feel that **** that I send

But my words don't seem to carry

And how do I pretend to know what I'm doing?

When my head's so full I can hardly hear the music

The kick and that snare vibrate my chest plate

While I do my best to try not look desperate

'Cause I'm not used to this yet, I just keep losing my breath

My eyes are elsewhere

Avoid everything and contact

I feel a phone screen burn up my face as I watch that

Seventeenth youtube video in the past 2 hours

Who knew I even cared for fake news and Kardashians?

This is madness

Care about other lives more than we care about our own

We don't care about people as much as we care about our phones

Yeah, open your eyes, take a look around, speak after the tone

I don't need it

Don't need it, don't need it

I don't need it

I can put it down whenever I like

I swear it doesn't take up like half of my time

I don't need it

I don't need it

Don't need it, don't need it

I don't need it

I can put it down whenever I like (whenever I like)

I swear it doesn't take up like-

Yeah, I read that settings tab on my homepage

It said 10.5 hours of a Monday

I've been on my phone for most of the day, tryna keep up to date

Tryna tell you that I got some new music on the way

It's always the same, give me a break

I want them to hear the music but I don't wanna be a slave

To a Facebook page created by my only ego

Thought I should change my name and keep my real one on the d-low

But here we go

Here I am asking the dead for advice

But who knows who'll answer your prayers in this life

So show me the light and tell me what's right

Just show me the light and tell me

So dear SJ

How did you do it?

How'd you make the people believe? Have them see you succeed?

Create something so gripping and make this thing so appealing

Make me care so much yet feel so out of touch

Eyes square, fingers tapped to the phone

Playing the same old tune while they keep me on hold

But answer me this

Why'd you make this damn phone?
