| Verse 1: Notion
|
| Yeah, Notion, Cee, Po3
|
| You know, I know, I just wanna let you know, we’re together here,
|
| put that shit away, man
|
| Sometimes you need to unplug just to feel the love
|
| Yeah I swear it’s more heavenly than clouds above
|
| There’s too much dumbin' down in our own homes
|
| And you wonder why they call that shit a smartphone
|
| Man, it’s called a cell phone for a reason
|
| Restrict you in the moment, make you see it through a screen and
|
| Entice you for likes and shares, nobody fuckin' cares
|
| What’s real, what’s under there, I’m right fuckin' here
|
| Speak to me, put it down, show decency
|
| I know you’ve had the most obscene of weeks, yo
|
| That’s why I love a northern escape, to feel the space
|
| Sun on my face, birds singin', amazing grace
|
| I’m just statin' my lessons, call it progression
|
| Yo I’m livin' in love and I’m payin' attention
|
| Yo, it’s been a day, yo it’s been a week
|
| But girl it feel amazing when we speak, it’s been a long

|
| Why am I missin' out
|
| On the time that you spend beside me?
|
| Look at me and get it out
|
| Ain’t no good that can come from hiding
|
| I know it can get you down
|
| When you spend your whole life trying
|
| But
|
| Don’t pull away
|
| Don’t pull away
|
| Don’t pull away
|
| Verse 2: Po3
|
| I got a story for you quickly, hope your fire is bright
|
| About the world I came to know before the prime of my life
|
| So gather round a minute, ain’t no kumbaya for tonight
|
| See I’m just hoping to provide some insights
|
| As a little boy I spent my time how I liked (that's true)
|
| And this was back before the internet and prior to Skype, fool
|
| You’d never lose a phone when it’s on the wall, the wires guide you
|
| And we still fought with fists and not gunfire or knife… shoot
|
| Nowadays it’s like we ain’t even living
|
| Information so available our brains are forgetting
|
| How to formulate a thought, no landing pages and no images
|
| And we wonder why were slaves to a system then, God damn man
|
| Put ya phones down, turn off the TV
|
| Ya kids are right in front of you like, «how you can’t see me?!»
|
| Your e-friends in need of mass deleting
|
| And you don’t wanna shackle your own ankles for the sake of them, believe me

| Verse 3: Cee
|
| Yeah, I need y’all to do me a favour right quick
|
| Put your phones down, just for a second
|
| Take a deep breath
|
| Look at the world around you, and listen, just for a minute
|
| Just for a minute
|
| See, I’m a businessman
|
| You never see me without my equipment in hand
|
| And time is money, my nemesis be the minute hand
|
| The hustle finish, booth bound where I spit a grand, homie I’m a different man
|
| And while my lifestyle depending on the internet
|
| I understand the ramifications of being infinite-
|
| -ly logged on the networks and caught up in my headphones
|
| Where real life’s a Like and the wifi is never dead zoned
|
| Shit, so I be staring out my window
|
| And watch the day pass, the world turning while I’m indoors
|
| A vicious cycle, see I gotta keep the lights on
|
| So we at the crib workin' ‘til we finish, then the light’s gone
|
| Damn, at least I recognize the folly in it
|
| I’m cognizant that time is finite so we gotta live it
|
| In that spirit, we got plans and we got dreams
|
| And so our head is in the game so we can pull away eventually, yeah

| All we needin' is to pull away
|
| And understand before tomorrow, there’s a new today
|
| Look around you, the world is so astounding, so
|
| Put your phone away, it’s only me and you today, ay
