Scroll Click

about

"Scroll Click" is an Alternative Hip Hop track inspired by the observation of societal addiction to social media. It is a track inspired by the falsehood of associating your worthiness as a human being with being ‘popular’ ‘famous’ or ‘important' based on numeric value alone. It is a track inspired by how the ethereal, invisible magic of music has been forced and squashed into a huge visual box for easier consumption. It is a track inspired by how deceiving looks can be in the manicured reality of social media and how participation in this false reality can not only lead to depression but how it can also lead one to check out from participating in actual reality. It is a track inspired by the dark realities and injustices happening constantly all around us. I created “Scroll Click” for myself to release thoughts and feelings of sadness, anger, and frustration. And now I share it with you.

lyrics

Scroll, click, scroll, click...

Getting lost in upward swipe
Stories, photos, pictures, hype
Feeling like your life’s not hip
Compare yourself, can’t get a grip
They seem cool
She seems rad
He seems funky
I wish I had

Never feel quite like you’re living on the top
Want what they have, don’t want what you got

Travel, tour
Club, score
Hottie, shoot
Booty, cute
Clothes, swag
Boast, brag
Photos, pro
Video ho
Never enough
Endless want
My life needs
So I can flaunt
Me me me
I I I
Gotta gotta post
Gotta gotta like

Scroll, click, scroll, click...

Work, bills
Sad, pills
Aging, vain
Slave, pain
No houses
Beating spouses
Riot, shoot
Shout, mute
Dirty looks
Leaders are crooks
Take away my needs
While they cook the books
Me me me
I I I
Gotta gotta post
Gotta gotta like

Scroll, click, scroll, click...

Stop the tyranny
Inequality
Stop the jealousy
Broken society
Stop the greed
Help those in need
Stop the hate
It’s not your life to take
