So says Kenya Grace. She’s not wrong and writes about this so eloquently. Her latest track, Paris feels like a release and relief from the trickery of socials. Never needed more than on VALENTINES DAY either! It’s a bangin' good tune too.
Take me to Paris, we'll stay in a palace
Pretend we're in love, just to Instagram it
We'll go on a date, just to post what we're havin'
Everything's fake and none of it matters
We can spend a few days in a fantasy
Drinkin' wine, it's too much for our sorries
We would barely speak out on the balcony
But in front of everybody, we'll act happily
And I swear, everything is fickle and it's hard to tell it's fake
And if we turned our phones off, baby, would it feel the same
So take me to Paris, we'll kiss on the terrace
Pretend we're in love, to make people jealous
Don't move, barely talk until we're posin' for pics that we hate
Everything's fake and none of it matters
Everything that's genuine is paper thin
And if we think about it too much then I'll hate my skin
Relationships are ruined over messages
But you can just replace 'em with a swipe and click
And I swear, everything is fickle and it's hard to tell it's fake
And if we turned our phones off, baby, would it feel the same
