Lyrics
Now let me start this song with a question Are you fed up with what we've been peddling? Are you really buying this anti-depression Drug smoke-infested artistic expression? I'm looking at the Billboard charts There's not one lyric that I'd call art There's not one song that I'd call great Where did all the artists who contemplate go? No, we've all got it backwards Kids are educated by Instagram-famous rappers Cuz when it all pans out there's nothing we stand for We just wanna stand out But I won't go 'til get to say What I know, no I won't go Week in, week out I don't wanna do this anymore It burns me out Living like 1984 No explanation can fix what I've been facing, cuz Week in, week out I'm living like 1984 Even if this makes me hated I'm saying it shameless Cuz I am the same it's A common disease up on these Instagram pages We're socially weighted Like, "Why is she famous and why is he nameless?" You gotta have nerves of steel this world's stainless If you don't have mass appeal you won't make it I tell myself every day to stay patient Tell myself every day to stay – Week in, week out I don't wanna do this anymore It burns me out Living like 1984 No explanation can fix what I've been facing, cuz Week in, week out I'm living like 1984 But I won't go 'til get to say What I know, no I won't go
