Screens Between Us
A song made by emriS
Yebo, yebo
Put the phone down, sharp sharp
Let's talk, let's talk
Mama scrolling through her timeline, eish
Baba watching reels, he don't even look up
Kids in their room with headphones on tight
Family dinner but nobody's present tonight
We sitting at the same table but miles apart
Double taps and likes but we losing heart
When last did we laugh without a screen in between?
When last did we talk about more than what we've seen?
Screens between us, we're fading away
Lost in the scroll, forgot how to say
"How was your day? What's on your mind?"
We're all online but we're falling behind
Screens between us, asambe back home
To real conversations, not just a phone
Yebo, let's connect like we used to do
Before the world became just me and you and the view
Little one asking questions but papa don't hear
Too busy with notifications, always check what's here
Mama posting pictures of the life we pretend
But the real moments passing, will this ever end?
Remember Sunday sessions, stories round the fire?
Now it's silent scrolling, connection getting dire
Sho, we got a thousand friends but feeling so alone
Time to wake up, time to put down that phone
Screens between us, we're fading away
Lost in the scroll, forgot how to say
"How was your day? What's on your mind?"
We're all online but we're falling behind
Screens between us, asambe back home
To real conversations, not just a phone
Yebo, let's connect like we used to do
Before the world became just me and you and the view
Put the phone down, sharp sharp
Let's talk, aweh
Family first, eish
Screens between us no more
