Scrolling through my feed, is that a highlight reel,
Everybody loves a story, but tell me is it real?
Fame always shines up brightly like a neon light,
But when the spotlight begins to fade, they will forget your fight.
In this world You gotta be broken, gotta be a huge mess,
Just to get some attention, just to feel a little blessed.
But what about the struggles, the strife that we hide?
But tell me, does it really matter if you're not verified?
Oh, really they only care if you're broken or famous?
But either way we'll try, can you blame us?
Fame or trouble, that's the game we decide to play,
Some try to build you up just to watch you decay.
Fame or flames, that's how it goes,
If you're not on fire, then nobody knows.
You're only valued when you are on the big stage,
But if you're drowning in silence, it's a whole different page.
Posting a perfect picture, that's seems to be the currency,
But who will check on you when you're lost out at sea?
In this world of fame and filters, get ready for the fall,
'Cause they all love your pain, but they don't love you at all.
Crisis can be a canvas that you can paint on with your tears,
They'll cheer for all the drama but won't silence your fears.
Tragedies will erupt to the bittersweet song,
We will watch the world react and it won't take long.
Oh, really they only care if you're broken or famous?
But either way we'll try, can you blame us?
Fame or trouble, that's the game we decide to play,
Some try to build you up just to watch you decay.
Fame or flames, that's how it goes,
If you're not on fire, then nobody knows.
You're only valued when you are on the big stage,
But if you're drowning in silence, it's a whole different page.
Give me the fame glory or the fortune in the night,
But tell me, will they care when I'm out of the light?
We are lost in the echoes, where is the love that we seek?
And If you're thriving in silence, you always feel so weak.
Can we find a way to breakout of the mold?
Reconnect to the hearts that are bruised and cold,
Cause every single soul has a story to tell,
But we scream in a endless void, caught up in the spell.
Oh, really they only care if you're broken or famous?
But either way we'll try, can you blame us?
Fame or trouble, that's the game we decide to play,
Some try to build you up just to watch you decay.
Fame or flames, that's how it goes,
If you're not on fire, then nobody knows.
You're only valued when you are on the big stage,
But if you're drowning in silence, it's a whole different page.
So give me the truth, I'll take it like a king,
Forget the fame, I just want the real thing.
In a world that' is oh so shallow, I'll take a dive deep,
Finding my own worth, in the truths that I keep.
So here's to the voices that are lost in the dark,
We'll shine brighter than gold, let's leave a mark,
Fame is just for a moment, but love's the true gain,
In this life we live, let's just dance in the rain.
