Look at that

Look at that…

Nah seriously—look at that

⸻

Look at that, same old scene

Different face, same routine

Same smile, same disguise

Same truth behind their eyes

Look at that, chasing fame

Different post, same old game

Different caption, same intent

“Look at me, I’m confident”

Look at that, acting fine

But they’re breaking half the time

Funny how it all looks good

Till you see what’s underneath the shine

⸻

Look at that

Yeah, look again

Everybody playing roles

Like they know just how it ends

Look at that

Don’t look too long

You might see what’s really there

And realise something’s wrong

⸻

Look at that, switching lanes

Same thoughts, different names

Everybody wants to stand out

So they copy what remains

Look at that, talking big

But they barely live like this

Funny how perception flips

When reality don’t fit

Look at that, perfect life

Till you zoom a little closer

Then you see the cracks appear

And the weight they’re carrying on their shoulders

⸻

Look at that

Yeah, look again

Everybody playing roles

Like they know just how it ends

Look at that

Don’t look too long

You might see what’s really there

And realise something’s wrong

⸻

(slower, spoken)

It’s all angles…

All timing…

All what you show…

And what you’re hiding

⸻

Look at that, same old me

Trying to see what I can’t see

Trying not to fall into

Everything in front of me

Funny how I call it out

Then I still play the part

Guess we all just balancing

Between our head and our heart

⸻

Look at that

Yeah, look again

Everybody playing roles

Like they know just how it ends

Look at that

Don’t look too long

You might see what’s really there

And realise something’s wrong

⸻

Look at that…
