LYRICS
--------------------

This is war
Oh damn, I lost my fame
My viewers and subscribers are not the same
I hoped to get a bit more
But instead, the feeds say ignore
This is war
It ain't about the art you chase
It's all about attention and a pretty face
The moment I opened the door
I knew I got into war

Connections, so many people, but I'm stuck in the middle
Who are you, and who is she? What are you doing in my virtual reality?
Oh, you been in Paris? Oh, you're wearing all Givenchy
And you — what is this mountain you climb? Isn't it scary to be so high?
Bye, this place is not for me
It's all about lies and jealousy

The truth is out there, if it is what you're after
It has no limits, no boundaries, no fence built around her
But where is it? Can we meet?
Yeah, it's under a pile of...

This is war
Oh damn, I lost my fame
My viewers and subscribers are not the same
I hoped to get a bit more
But instead, the feeds say ignore
This is war
It ain't about the art you chase
It's all about attention and a pretty face
The moment I opened the door
I knew I got into war

Submission to algorithms got me stuck in a fantasy riddle
What are you selling to me, is it your self-esteem misery?
Oh, network influencer? Can you make it a little bit juicier?
And you, why you talking like a movie star? Sorry sir, how you get this car?
Scars, living the dream
I'll go and blow off all this steam

This is war
Oh damn, I lost my fame
My viewers and subscribers are not the same
I hoped to get a bit more
But instead, the feeds say ignore
This is war
It ain't about the art you chase
It's all about attention and a pretty face
The moment I opened the door
I knew I got into war

Well, half of the people can be part wrong all of the time
Some of the people can be all wrong part of the time
But all of the people can't be all wrong all of the time
I think Robert Zimmerman said that
I'll let you be in my feed if I can be in yours
I said that
