"I Put A Spell On You" lyrics

Brandi Carlile & Renée Elise Goldsberry Lyrics

"I Put A Spell On You"
(from "The Social Dilemma" soundtrack)

I put a spell on you
Because you're mine
You better stop the things you do, I tell ya I ain't lyin'
I ain't lyin'
You know I can't stand it
You runnin' around
I can't stand it
The way you put me down
I put a spell on you
Because you're mine
Because you're mine

Click Click Boom down the rabbit hole here we go
A whole generation livin' the Truman Show
With no control over the feed we see
Feeding humanity to the machinery
Not only selling ads, they're selling you and me
While slowly hacking our psychology
Tracking what we want to see, who we want to be
Praying on our fragile vanity

The symptoms of oppressive algorithms
Seen in schisms in society
When we're givin' into hidden rhythms
Ridden with the heartbeat of conspiracy
They said the hell with us, they put a spell on us
The greatest trick played on humanity
Is the true price of free our shared reality?

I put a spell on you
Because you're mine
I put a spell on you
I put a spell on you
Because you're mine


"I loved 'The Social Dilemma' and was thrilled they asked me to sing this song," Brandy Carlile said about this song, "especially with the incomparable Renée Elise Goldsberry. I hope this soundtrack continues to bring attention to the film, which I think is so important."
Renée Elise Goldsberry told about "I Put A Spell On You", "'The Social Dilemma' confirmed some of my greatest fears about social media, and added a few. I jumped at the chance to collaborate with the great Brandi Carlile and Mark Crawford to amplify the film's haunting message. Now that we know the truth, will we insist on reform? Or remain spellbound, bought and sold?"
