This song is a diss track on youtuber “Prince EA” for some of his misinformed and wrong videos that he make (he doesn’t even cite his sources)
[Intro]
I read a study the other day
It said "Be careful when you're listening to Prince Ea"
I'm not gonna cite it in case you criticize it
But let me try to summarize it anyway
It said if some guy makes wild, unsourced claims
And never provides citations for what he states
And tries to drum up fear over what's not a big deal
Then be as skeptical as hell of what he's saying
[Verse]
Calling everyone's depression the same, are you insane?
Guess not, or at least one psychiatrist would've explained
It can't always just be thought out of, Jesus!
It's a chemical imbalance; please, first do some research
And saying ADD's caused by media consumption?
You're kind of hard to trust with such incorrect presumptions
A mountain of evidence is that it is genetic
And, man, it's "ADHD" – don't you listen to Kendrick?
You won't record precious moments on a phone?
I suppose you hated the moment you posed for this photo with Oprah, you hippie hypocrite
But a backtrack lickety-split, deleted it all of it quick
"We're causing society's downfall!
Technology's out to get us
Put down your phones, they're devious
Oh, and before you do, follow me on social media"
You hate media overstimulation – wait, look
How many spam articles are you posting on Facebook?
But I've got to give congratulations
For picking a videographer good enough to distract from the inaccurate crap you're saying
Fearmongering over the state of the world to seem clever
When several of the things you said are better than ever
We are way less selfish, and we're safer than historically
And what made that possible? Oh, yeah: technology
Human curiosity; man, that is humanity
What isn't is spreading misinformation that's damaging
Now, I'm not perfect, I bet I have some citations missed
But I try to be consistent, and if it isn't, then I'll fix it
I like your aim to bring attention to important issues
And if you fixed things, you'd be great; hell, that's why I thought to diss you
But if you won't listen to me, maybe you'll listen to one of your fans
Who left this comment trying to help you understand
Saying, "Even though I really like your thoughts and attitude
Gonna unfollow because of clickbait, ads, and lack of scientific proof"
Peace
