Virtual Reality Interlude (feat. Goonie)

Family parties remind me of my childhood The days when things were a lot easier No worries and no hatred All love and what we made it See I remember falling asleep on a car ride To a party that was only like a 20 minute drive I'd wake up and wipe the crust out my eyes Then go see all my cousins and act like it's been way too long When in reality it's only been like a couple of days These are some things I think of when I'm up, up and away see Our daily routines keep us stuck in our ways And we focus way too much on what would they say But I'm here to say, f*ck what they say It's only opinion and it won't hurt you to listen It's only gonna cost you if you, pay it attention See we've been placed in a system Where they depict race and religion And the greed of money took place of the wisdom And now we're facing division and the sake of our children depend on who's raising 'em Isn't it crazy To think where we've come since a baby How technology's so advanced that it's what raises our babies Shit I remember riding bikes wit my friends Beating kids picking fights wit my friends Goin down the slide then climbing back up to do it one time again Or playing sports in the park Cause on the field is where you had to go to make your mark So we'd hit the courts and play all day til it's dark But now it's iPhones and iPads Now apologies turned into my faults and my bads We've become so anti social that, we go home And there's no more "hi moms" and "hi dads" It's just straight to the phones, And we think this is what makes us feel whole But it's also what keeps us alone See reality's become virtual Now life is less purposeful Ironic how your most prized possession is the main thing that's hurting you Goon I've realized People like us, don't need new information We just need to be authentically ourselves And keep telling our story like Shit is hard Goonie Point blank bro
