Got
you.
Here’
s
an
original
one
about
where
we
are
right
now:
We
built
cities
out
of
glass
and
code
Everybody’
s
face
in
a 6
-inch
mode
We
pray
to
servers,
we
swipe
for
grace
Rent
due
on
the
first
of
the
race
Kids
learn
emojis
before
they
learn
grief
And
the
news
refreshes
faster
than
belief
Progress
said “
hold
on,
it’
s
almost
here”
But
the
bill
came
first,
and
it’
s
very
clear
We’
re
trading
soul
for
signal
Trading
time
for
money
Civilization
on
autopilot
With
a
battery
at 1%
We
got
rockets
to
Mars
and
rent
that’
s
due
We
got
AI
writing
poems
for
you
But
who’
s
paying
the
people
who
teach
us
how
to
be
human?
Signal
and
receipt
Farmers
watch
the
sky
through
an
app
Doctors
text
you “
u
good?”
and
that’
s
that
Factories
dream
in
robotic
hands
While
the
grocery
line
gets
longer
in
the
stands
We
monetized
attention,
sold
it
by
the
click
And
called
it
connection,
called
it “
that’
s
just
it”
Tech
said “
you’
re
free,
you’
re
seen,
you’
re
known”
But
freedom
got
a
subscription
and
a
loan
We’
re
trading
soul
for
signal
Trading
time
for
money
Civilization
on
autopilot
With
a
battery
at 1%
We
got
answers
in
seconds,
wisdom
takes
years
We
got
crypto,
debt,
and 10,000
fears
But
who’
s
counting
the
cost
of
a
world
that
never
sleeps?
Signal
and
receipt
Maybe
it’
s
not
that
we
moved
too
fast
Maybe
we
forgot
what
we
were
trying
to
pass
Down
to
the
kid
who’
ll
inherit
the
cloud
With
no
trees,
no
quiet,
and
a
very
loud
crowd
So
let’
s
log
off
long
enough
to
remember
How
to
build
with
hands,
not
just
render
We
don’
t
gotta
burn
it
all
to
start
again
Just
unplug
the
noise,
let
the
real
in
Less
trading
soul
for
signal
Less
trading
time
for
money
Civilization
with
a
human
hand
And
a
battery
that
can
last
Signal
and
receipt.
What
did
it
cost?
What
did
it
keep?
Got
you.
Here’
s
an
original
one
about
where
we
are
right
now:
