Kira Rae - Screen Time Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Four AM, staring at these statistics
Another night lost in analytics
Counting likes just to feel alive
While my screen time's taking a dive
Forty-seven notifications ignored
Three missed calls I can't afford
Drawing patterns in the data stream
Living life through a digital dream

[Chorus]
Watch me, count me, track my soul
These numbers make me feel whole
Every click, every swipe, every scroll
Is this connection taking its toll?
My life in megabytes and code
Carrying such a heavy load

[Verse 2]
Therapy sessions recorded in HD
Breaking down for posterity
Eight hours straight on social feeds
Chasing validation that I need
Marcus says I need to breathe
But Devon's beats help me deceive
Myself into thinking I'm okay
As these numbers fade away

[Bridge]
Unread messages pile up like stones
While I'm sitting here all alone
Converting heartbeats into graphs
Dancing through the aftermath
Of a life lived through a screen
Not sure what any of it means

[Chorus]
Watch me, count me, track my soul
These numbers make me feel whole
Every click, every swipe, every scroll
Is this connection taking its toll?
My life in megabytes and code
Carrying such a heavy load

[Outro]
The blue light fades as morning breaks
Another night of digital mistakes
But I'll be back to count again
'Cause numbers never feel like pain
Screen time's rising, soul's declining
But at least the stats keep climbing
