Intro: “Wait… y’all used to go outside for fun?” Verse 1 – Boomers: Back in my day, gas was cheap, Now your rent costs what I made in a week, I built the world, I paved the street, But I can’t unmute when we’re on Teams. Verse 2 – Gen X Latchkey kid with a Walkman heart, Watched the world fall apart and restart, We raised the net, we survived the grind, Now no one texts, they FaceTime my mind. Pre-Chorus – Millennials I’m sad, I’m tired, I stream my feels, Still paying off my college bills, We killed the mall, we made the meme, Now we’re background noise on Gen Z’s screen. Chorus: Boomer, X, Millennial crew, Tryna act cool on TikTok too, Gen Z laughs, Alpha rules, They’re coding class while we hit snooze. We made the net, they made it wild, We’re the ghosts, they’re the child Boomer, X, Millennial swirl, Lost in an Alpha Gen Z world. Bridge: Gen Z: “We canceled fame, we thrift our fits.” Alpha: “My drone just filmed your midlife crisis.” Gen Z: “We made TikTok.” Alpha: “We made AI talk.” Both: “And your jokes? They still don’t walk.” Outro: Boomer brags, X just shrugs, Millennial posts about burnout and hugs, Gen Z’s filming, Alpha’s rich, We’re all just lagging in the glitch.
