Stay Connected

[Verse 1]
I got a computer in front of me and a laptop to my left
A computer in my pocket I make calls with
If there’s somethin’ I wanna peep it’s right at my fingertips
‘cuz life is not complete with out infinite internet
I was told that in my 8-track
Some of the circuitry is more sophisticated than 1960’s spaceships
But I do my own moon landings a true champion too fancy to do badly
The age is digital, without computers you’d hate your living room
Aye that cable’s getting loose – tighten it up like
If the computers come to life then we’re fucked
Predictin’ the stock market watch the prices adjust
It used to be: if you got a nickel, put that in the computer called the juke box, then get up and dance
Now everybody’s got one in their wrist and their hands
Shit they even wanted me to put a chip in my cat
I’m like, “seriously?”

[Chorus]
I need to stay connected (x3)
To everything
I need to stay connected (x3)
I can’t escape it (x2)
But I wouldn’t if I could to everything…

[Verse 2]
I hate computers
But I need ‘em so I love ‘em and I treat ‘em like they’re someone
The screen looks at me so majestic and bright
It’s so essential, and answers my questions all right
When I’m scared of extra-terrestrial life, the computers protect me at night
The tell me they ought not to give me fear
But I think the ‘bots will get us before the apocalypse is here
It’s ominous, but it seems so obvious
The hands of time are controlled by satellites and rocket thrusts
You’re slippin’ if you don’t think they can think
Playstation 3 ain’t just a video game machine
I’m so dependent on technology when I’m making beats – you can hear the A.I. in the bass line
But if the world is taken over by robots holler, yall’r in hot water and I’m not bothered
If I get assimilated I’ll just join the ’bots and be the one to kill John Connor
Cuz you know I stay connected

[Chorus]
I need to stay connected (x3)
Yes indeed, uh-huh to everything
I need to stay connected (x3)
I can’t escape it (x2)
But I’m not really trying to everything…
I hate computers
