“Internet Killed The Rockstar” is the title track and final song on Mod Sun’s fourth studio album Internet Killed The Rockstar, released February 12, 2021. The song deals with a small town musician and his feelings towards users on the internet, who he sees as manipulative liars.
Mod has said that...
[Verse 1]
You see my face and feel a type of way, type of way
You came and went just like a tidal wave, tidal wave
Everything with you is just such a phase, such a phase
On the computer you just type away, type away, yeah, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
You're not who you say you are
Internet killed the rockstar
[Chorus]
Your scene is so overrated
I know you’ll find a replacement for me
You're so in over your head
"Remember me just like this" was the last thing I said
I know what it's like to be hated
From a city where nobody else feels like me
I had the whole world in my head
"Remember me just like this" was the last thing I said
[Verse 2]
I swear to God, this time I’m signing off, signing off
You learn a lesson or you take a loss, take a loss
Got all that money but won't pay the cost, pay the cost
Without you in my life, I'm better off, better off, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
You're not who you say you are
Internet killed the rockstar
[Chorus]
Your scene is so overrated
I know you'll find a replacement for me
You're so in over your head
"Remember me just like this" was the last thing I said
I know what it's like to be hated
From a city where nobody else feels like me
I had the whole world in my head
"Remember me just like this" was the last thing I said
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
No, woah

MOD SUN told Alternative Press:
I was in a dream driving in my Ford Explorer at 16 years old by myself. I snuck out of the house, not to go fucking spray-paint the side of a building or go meet up with a girl. No, so I could go ride around my city and scream the lyrics of a song and pretend that it...
