The cycle, galore
Life

Reduced to a video game
Big-Macs
Grande cafe-lattes with spices
Facebook
Twitter
More shit

Gucci or Prada
Fancy wheels
Nine to five or three on three off
Stuck on the mountain
Pushing fancy rocks that weigh too much
But they sparkle when they roll

Can I supersize my sorrows
Can I get a side of celebrity
Is that beer at least five dollars
How many calories
A superstar keeps their figure

Did you hear about my fancy job
Did I rant enough about race
Sexism galore
Nine out of ten popular groups approve
Me
Me
Me

I shunned the little people
So unique but like them
I am fancy with invincible friends
Alone I am lonely weighted and tired
I should buy another game
Definitely update my status
Before death
