It's Not About You

Not About You

Look at us. We’ve become a superficial world.
No empathy and no love for one another.
We can no longer see outside of ourselves.
[Philippians 2:3]

I look around and all I see
Are a bunch of wanna-bees
Holdin’ up their phones
watch a man dying in the street
We’re a sick society
Feeding on anxiety
Living off of pride instead of God Almighty
[John 13:34]
[James 4:10]

Tryin’ to bait a click - yo
Maybe get a like - so
Hope that they will follow me so I can get some cash flow
Exaggerate my life so I can make my page grow
Wear my fake smile and host it like a game show
[1 corinthians 3:18]

Check out my clothes
Look at my food
Watch me party and drink all the booze
Travel the world and make headline news
[Matthew 6:19-21]

Look at me
Look at me
Look at me
Look at me
[John 5:44]

Trolling on the internet
Frontin’ like we’re perfect
Stackin’ all the filters so we can hide the defects
We all fall short like a bunch of elves
Everybody run! Every-one for themselves
[Romans 3:23]

Me, myself and I
Together we’re on high
I have a million friends but none I can rely
We’re all too busy trying to one-up our own lie
If I don’t stay relevant I might as well die
[Galatians 6:4]

Tell me I’m special
Tell me I’m cool
Stroke my ego, don’t be cruel
Your flattery pumps me up with fuel
[Galatians 1:10]

Follow me
Look at me
Follow me
Look at me
[John 5:44]

Hiding in a shell, living for myself, loving no one else
You’ve got no clue
Puffin out my chest, knowing I’m obsessed, I’m better than the rest
[James 4:10]

So let’s review
It’s about love, faith and truth
It’s about changing your world view
Put God in the center of everything you do
And then you will find it’s not about you
[Matthew 6:33]

We got no attention span
Fickle as a weatherman
I pretend I’m listening but I’m bored as a doorman
Every time you talk I hear blah, blah, blah
I fake it and I nod so ha, ha, ha
[Philippians 2:3-5]

Call me narcistic
Maybe egotistic
I’m most important so I’m optimistic
I live for my own pleasure - so hedonistic
I thrive for attention just in case you missed it
[1 John 2:15-16]

Some would say that I’m in denial
I’m empty inside even though I smile
They’re just jealous they love my style
[James 3:14]

Look at me
Look at me
They all love to look at me
[John 5:44]

Hiding in a shell, living for myself, loving no one else
You’ve got no clue
Puffin out my chest, knowing I’m obsessed, I’m better than the rest
[James 4:6]

So let’s review
It’s about love, faith and truth
It’s about changing your world view
Put God in the center of everything you do
And then you will find it’s not about you
[Matthew 6:33]
