Yeah… just a friendly reminder Smile for the timeline (Verse 1) Post a joke—hold up, let me audit that Might offend somebody I don’t even follow back Type fast, then I pause like “nah, delete” Autocorrect turned my thoughts into defeat Got a crowd full of lurkers with a magnifying glass Turn a meme to a case, now I’m fighting my past Wayback Machine got receipts on file They don’t miss a thing, they just wait a while I’m trending in a group chat I was never in People I don’t know got opinions again If sarcasm had a tone I could underline twice Maybe then they wouldn’t try to read it like advice (Pre-Chorus) Draft, redraft, triple-check my tone Sound like me? Nah, that’s a safer clone Every post feel like I’m taking a test Multiple choice—just pick the safest guess (Hook / Chorus) This a PSA—say it the safe way Water it down, keep it PG, okay? Smile real nice for the unseen crowd Don’t think too much, don’t say it out loud This a PSA—fit in the template Copy, paste, keep it all laminate Be yourself—but only halfway Welcome to the highlight hallway (Verse 2) Employers scrolling like “hmm, interesting…” Judging teenage me like I had wisdom then Court of public opinion in session all day Judge, jury, comments section on the way Friends act cool but they screenshot quick Turn “just kidding” into evidence clip Enemies bookmarking everything I drop Waiting on the day I finally slip up and flop Algorithm got me better than I know me Finish my sentence like it wrote me Suggesting what I think ‘fore I think it myself Now my personality’s a sponsored shelf (Pre-Chorus) Edit that, tweak that, soften the line Make it less “me” and more “it’s fine” If authenticity don’t pass review Guess I’ll just upload version two (Hook / Chorus) This a PSA—say it the safe way Water it down, keep it PG, okay? Smile real nice for the unseen crowd Don’t think too much, don’t say it out loud This a PSA—fit in the template Copy, paste, keep it all laminate Be yourself—but only halfway Welcome to the highlight hallway (Bridge) Oh you thought this was freedom of speech? Nah, it’s freedom with a terms-of-use sheet Scroll, agree, don’t read the lines Sign your name on the dotted mind (Verse 3) Read the comments like a courtroom feed Everybody got a law degree suddenly “Objection!”—to a joke I made last night Now it’s evidence Exhibit A in the morning light Deep dive threads like a documentary Breaking down my tone like it’s elementary Body language analysts through a screen Tell me what I “meant” like they live in my dreams Got a checklist for what I can’t be Too loud, too real, too off-brand “me” So I shrink-fit thoughts till they barely exist Iron out the edges just to stay on the list Funny how the silence get applause instead Say nothing wrong if nothing said Guess I mastered that—what a win, what a flex Lost my voice but I kept my rep in check (Outro) This a PSA—talk but don’t say Anything real that could get replayed Laugh it off, keep it cliché That’s how you survive the display This a PSA—say it the safe way Water it down, keep it PG, okay? Smile real nice for the unseen crowd Don’t think too much, don’t say it out loud This a PSA—fit in the template Copy, paste, keep it all laminate Be yourself—but only halfway Welcome to the highlight hallway
