Parallel reality Lyrics

You've reached your friends limit, facebook chimed

5000 friends on Facebook, 5000 followers on IG

Unending messages, comments, likes and shares Yet

Why does it feel so cold, lonely And alone

Cold, lonely and aloneness are my real friends

Always with me behind the smiles and videos

Never leaving my side, always behind my comments and post

Why does it feel like I am trapped in a dark box

Sinking deeper and deeper into an abyss

With the dawning of every new day

These feelings and I are like Siamese twins, conjoined

Inseparable cos I do not know what life means without them

Endless streak exchange on Snapchat with our cliques

Strictly among friends we deceitfully deceive ourselves

What's a streak if you cannot feel or look a freak

Yet we cannot send a streak to our clique without a filter

To cover our flaws and make our flawed skin look flawless

What's friendship without being real

About what you look like with no makeup on

What's friendship without being able to share the lows along with the highs

What's friendship without being able to

Share your disappointments along with your appointments

That friendship is a sinking ship ripped and

Slipping deeper into a place of no return

Looking the part of a devout Christian online

Yet no bible study time or spiritual life

Religiously Following different men of God

Online and never submitting authority to one

Subscribed to different teachings

Sharing and reposting different inspirational and

Biblical thoughts that do not tie up the knots

Swallowing different pills of doctrines that gives the thrills and the chills

Practising syncretism, a mixture of this and that

Doctrine creating schism in the body

Lacking substance to Wade off the enemy when they come

Falling prey to depression, oppression and lots of suicidal thoughts

With psychological sessions yet no headway

When all you have to do is rebuke the devil and he will flee

Understand your authority and speak in tongues (speaking in tongues

To that situation and nations will come to a halt

Hence the question; what brand of Christianity are you?

We live in a world with so much information

News apps overtaking cash apps

We live in a world with so much display of affluence

Cash apps overtaking news apps

Drowning in information yet no wisdom

So much affluence on display yet poverty and penury reign supreme

We live in a world where we have so many virtual friends

Yet many commit suicide suffering from depression

We live in a world with so much PDA on display

Yet stabbings, and killing of spouses are on the rise

We live in a social media-dominated world

Yet we're not social
