[Verse 1]
Why is it not normal to just get my GED?
I don't see myself going to university
Mom and dad were not tracked and followed
When they were teens
And I'm too young to know I'm in love
But they met when they were like only thirteen, hey
Most of my friends are on the internet
It's funny we're close
But haven't come close to meeting quite yet
Don't show me a show I'll get attached to
Life I can't live
I love when they tell mе to be an adult
But treat me likе a kid
[Chorus]
We're speaking our minds, but we still won't speak to the waiter
And all we ever want to do is sleep
I'm scared to turn 18
Everybody seems to be
Generation Z z z
Generation Z
[Verse 2]
Why is it surprising that I'm numb to the news?
I remember constant chaos since 2002
And don't get me wrong, I don't like being used to being scared
I just act like I don't care
I know how my friends are feeling from the memes that they send me
On their own, they're all dealing with their own battles daily
And the media romanticizes all their struggles
Our depression is trendy
I'm losing my mind, and I can't seem to find a way out of it 'cause everybody says it's in my head
I'm scared to turn 18
We're humanities' plan Z
Generation Z z z
Generation Z
We don't know how this mess is our mess now
But we plan to clean it all up
But first, I should clean my room, my room
We're speaking our minds, but we still won't speak to the waiter
And sure, we really, really like to sleep
But when we sleep, we dream
We dream of change while catching Z's
Oh, Generation Z z z
Generation Z
