Verse 1
Missing out missing out everyday I'm missing out
Every minute every second is what my mind is wishing now
Do this do that nah do this or the next thing
Let's write it all down let's be impressive with our prepping
You should do this kind of record or that kind of record
And there's a certain way that you should act on a record
Now's the time to create but you ain't got time You're running out of it
You better write this all down or you not going to like the sound of it
Write all of these verses then put them up immediately
Social media can't wait cuz there's someone else that's beating me
Everyone's putting their songs out why ain't you doing it
This is your only chance to make music Don't ruin it
Okay one song done put it up and hashtag it
You got to know the algorithm do your mathematics
Put it at this time and post it every day
Come on let the world know you got something to say
Hook: (2X)
What you waiting for You can't be lazy
Taking time for yourself you must be crazy
It's time to keep working you deserve more
So come on and ride this wave like a surfboard
Verse 2
Now's your time to go viral like the Corona
But time ain't slowing down na na you getting older
So come on man let's make something that's conscious
Like Gary vee would say let's make this content
But wait don't forget about your other friends
They making YouTube videos too so you got to pretend
And say yeah I'm making vids so you don't get left behind
You got to stay ahead of them and front like you're on your grind
Like yeah I'm writing and recording songs every single day
From being the next lil pump Yo I'm only a day away
Plus I'm learning how to make beats Yeah another skill set
I'm doing that everyday too there's no telling what'll come next
And yo did I forget I'm writing a book
I got over 200 pages everyone's fighting the look
Plus I post stories every day 15 second snippets
Of every bit of my life so you can all get a tidbit
Look at me look at me I'm doing so many things
I should be famous right now and they should treat me like a king
I'm creating all this content everyday and every minute
I'm using my time to the fullest I swear that I'm with it
Hook (2X)
Verse 3:
Workin’ and workin’ until my arm breaks
My hands shake, but keep goin’, see how much my arm take
If I take a break or a day off, it means I’m slippin’
If I’m slippin’, it means I fall off, damn I must be trippin’
No days off, right? This the American Dream
This the only way when I die, they’ll be remembering me
Make more, make more, make more, so you can make more
And if someone else is makin’ more, don’t forget to make more
More, more, more, don’t let em keep waitin’
They all gon lose interest if you keep on delayin’
So c’mon man, you gotta beat em all
You gotta do it while you can, cause it’s a damn free for all
Put out one? Not enough, Plus you messed up on that
You gotta do this, this and that to show em you really wanna rap
You gotta go minimum 72 hours with no sleep
Plus 5 hour energy and McDonald’s quarter pound meat
You’re still young, you can eat that stuff and get away with it
You’ll thank yourself later after you stay creatin’ hits
Can’t stay up? Take these pills, they help me
Plus coffee with cream and sugar, make sure you take a selfie
Upload it or else they’ll think you not workin’
You don’t even have a career yet and you already hurtin’
Oh shit, yo Brett, what happened? Open ya eyes
You gotta make more content, you ain’t got no time to die!
Outro:
I ain’t dead, I just stepped away
This ain’t what I wanted to take my breath away
If the world wants content from me, yo they can wait
I won’t have enough to give if I just work till I break
What am I waitin’ for? It’s okay to be lazy
Takin’ time for myself? I ain’t crazy
It’s time to stop workin’ and take a pause
Take a break from the wave and block out the noise, know what I’m sayin’?
This is what I’m talking about. The “grind” that people discuss. It’s literally just busy work for the sake of work and doing it until you’re running on fumes. That’s no bueno.
Everybody loves to please the algorithm these days, but you were completely fine before you knew about the algorithm. Admit it, you didn’t even know the word algorithm until Sheen mentioned it in Jimmy Neutron.
With social media, we’re encouraged to brag…ahem…“share” everything, all in the sake of content.
I enjoy sharing aspects of my life on social media in addition to music, but there’s a balance needed.
No joke, after working on a computer constantly, I now need to use pads to keep my arms and hands in a neutral position.
“Let’s compile a list of actionable items that will improve transparency and generate awareness. And people…let’s make sure we don’t screw the pooch on this one.”
No matter what you choose to do, you are always going to miss out on something “better.”
Everyone wants to go viral. Like damn, y'all wanna spread throughout everyone’s bodies and minds? Reduce viral videos, we gotta slow the spread lol
And while you’re riding the wave, make sure you point to the right, like you do when that Jersey club hits.
This makes me think of Moar Krabs
