DIGITALLY MINDED

Mind is the first machine

First computer

Hear what I mean

Digitally minded

Too much posting and text

Digitally minded

Caught up inna internet

Digitally minded

More apps than friends

Digitally minded

Tell me what will come next

Communication breakdown

Emoji run the place now yeah

People never read again

Log on never sign out

Sign up every day now yeah

Bookmarking up the place

How’s the line? Can you hear me now?

I’m getting bad reception cause the signal must be lost

It must be lost

They say it makes life easier

But you’ll surely pay the cost

Surely pay the cost

Chorus

I saw seven youth walking by outside the other day

You’d think out to enjoy the sun and the rays

7 on their phones, nothing to say

Or perhaps no one to say it to

No one was listening to the ones around them

Those within reach so out of reach

What’s really going on in the world today

Analog I remain, yes I remain

Take a look where you’re going

Give them some real advice

Engaged in their digital haze

Obsessed with dem device

It was supposed to improve communication

Now we’re inna self imposed isolation

Chorus

Back in the day 3x

We played ball every day

Computers were sci-fi

Back in the day

A gig was a job

It was something that would pay

Rams were animals no megabytes no way

Memory was inside

Now you buy and upgrade

A window was something you had to clean
Ram was the cousin of goat, hear what I mean

Meg was the name of a woman around the way
A gig was a job for the long nights I say

Searches solving problems, others grow by the day

Crippled without internet

Ah so dem stay

Chorus
