You keep on saying that you gonna stop
But you know you can't
But you know you can't
But you
But you know you can't

You keep on saying you'll delete the apps
But you know you can't
But you know you can't
But you
But you know you can't

You keep on saying you'll cut back the time
But you know you can't
But you know you can't
But you
But you know you can't

You keep on saying that today's the last
But you know it's not
But you know it's not
But you
But you know it's not

Wake up every single day, put a screen in my face
Like a pic, post a vid, check what people have to say
10 am I'm running late, ain't even wide awake
Nothing's gonna keep me from making sure that I'm up to date
Endorphins running high, I couldn't tell you why
Lately it seems it's been getting harder to concentrate
Always telling lies like I could give it up anytime
But the truth is I'm addicted just read in between the lines
Now I'm late for work and I can't tell my boss the truth
So I make up an excuse, say I was watching the news
Addicted, check the clues how I'm telling all these lies
What makes me different from those addicted to snorting lines
Saying I can stop knowing that I really won't
Can't get myself to delete these apps from my fucking phone
It's crazy how something so simple made us all impatient
Crazy how it's taken over an entire generation

You keep on saying that you gonna stop
But you know you can't
But you know you can't
But you
But you know you can't

You keep on saying you'll delete the apps
But you know you can't
But you know you can't
But you
But you know you can't

You keep on saying you'll cut back the time
But you know you can't
But you know you can't
But you
But you know you can't

You keep on saying that today's the last
But you know it's not
But you know it's not
But you
But you know it's not

Falling to depression from comparing myself to others progressions
Thinking I need to be where they at so I start to question
Where I'm headed
Where I've been
Where I need to go
Looking in my neighbors yard has me wanting so much more
Instead of counting all my blessings my newest obsession
Is giving people that I've never met an impression
That I'm happy
That I'm rich
That I do crazy shit
That I'm hard cause I'm strapped
That I've never been no bitch
But I digress as I let you let that digest
We in our head so much we learn to dissect
Every post, every caption, anything that poses a distraction
From the real us cause we never see satisfaction
That's why every night we lay in bed til three am
Scrolling through our social feeds in amazement
Wake up in the morning wondering why I'm tired
Late for work again and question how the fuck did I get fired

You keep on saying that you gonna stop
But you know you can't
But you know you can't
But you
But you know you can't

You keep on saying you'll delete the apps
But you know you can't
But you know you can't
But you
But you know you can't

You keep on saying you'll cut back the time
But you know you can't
But you know you can't
But you
But you know you can't

You keep on saying that today's the last
But you know it's not
But you know it's not
But you
But you know it's not
