"Dancing On The Internet" lyrics

"Dancing On The Internet"

It started in my mentions
We could fall in love and then break up in the same sentence
Why are we so reckless?
You're everybody's trend til the trend is to forget it
I don't think you meant it
But it's funny how the send button is the greatest weapon
We all love to talk but you always miss the message
Tell me why the teacher's the only one who never learns their lesson huh?

Everybody wants to be famous on the internet
On the internet, yeah, on the internet
They don't even care if it's a sample or you've written it
They'll keep listening, they can't spot the difference
Nobody's putting any soul in it
You can't even get a hold of this 'cause
Everybody wants to be famous on the internet
Everybody's just dancing on the internet

On the internet, yeah

We need some perspective
People sing along while they're taking all the credit
Should this be off the record?
You get a million views, that must mean that you're respected (I respect it)
Cannot keep it separate, so do the math
I know I'm not first but you know I'm not last
Help me, help you? Sounds like you're down bad
And people need to stop getting mad just 'cause I ain't follow back

Everybody wants to be famous on the internet
On the internet, yeah, on the internet
They don't even care if it's a sample or you've written it
They'll keep listening, they can't spot the difference
Nobody's putting any soul in it
You can't even get a hold of this 'cause
Everybody wants to be famous on the internet
Everybody's just dancing on the internet

I'm not trying to start no fights
But people too woke to even open their eyes
Say something bold just to do what's right
But it ain't feel the same when you're chasing the likes
I'm moving too fast but I can keep reaching
The game that looks past me is the one I keep beating
Probably thought I crashed by now but believe me
I'll keep running laps and y'all can keep sleeping

Everybody wants to be famous on the internet
On the internet
All I see is everybody dancing on the internet
And sometimes even I can't spot the difference
Nobody's putting any soul in it
Bet you wish you had a hold on this
'Cause everybody wants to be famous on the internet
Why we always keep dancing on the internet

Everybody wants to be famous on the internet
On the internet, yeah, on the internet
They don't even care if it's a sample or you've written it
They'll keep listening, they can't spot the difference
Nobody's putting any soul in it
You can't even get a hold of this 'cause
Everybody wants to be famous on the internet
Everybody's just dancing on the internet
