Intro
All rise, the algorithm is now in session Ping. Ping. Court is live.
Verse 1
We met in the comments, we died in the drafts You duetted my heartbreak then muted the laugh I built the whole channel, you built the whole act Objection your honor, that is screen-recorded fact Read me my own DMs back like a closing remark Every receipt is a meme now, every wound is a bar
Pre-chorus
Ring light on and both of us are lying Gavel is a push notification firing Who gets the followers, who gets the crying Verdict loading, loading, loading
Chorus
For the views, for the views We staged a wedding just to stage the bruise For the views, for the views I would lose you again if it spiked the news Guilty, guilty Did it all for the views
Verse 2
Exhibit one, you used the sound and never tagged me Exhibit two, the fake split that the brand paid me You cropped my whole face from the thumbnail lately Now the comment section call me crazy, call me crazy
Verse 3
Stitched my apology before I could record it Archived all the good days, kept the war and then reported it I wanted you deleted but I screenshot every chord of it Pitched the pain down demonic then I autotuned the torment
Pre-chorus
Ring light off and neither one's surviving Sponsors reading rooms and they are declining Who gets the silence, who gets the timing Verdict loading, loading, loading
Chorus
For the views, for the views We staged a wedding just to stage the bruise For the views, for the views I would lose you again if it spiked the news Guilty, guilty Did it all for the views
Verse 4
The ruling drops, it is a flatline on the graph Both accounts shadowbanned, that's the only thing we share at last Every sponsor hit the exit, every follower a draft We sued for the whole kingdom, now we split up all the ash
Bridge
Exhibit A, I never wanted the audience, I wanted you to stay Exhibit B, but staying doesn't trend so I deleted the replay Exhibit C, the judge was never real, just a number on a screen we sued for the views and the views walked away
Verse 5
You soft-launch a new one in a softer kind of light I pivot to my self-care, post a sunrise every night The gavel keeps on pinging though the courtroom's out of sight Different feeds, same verdict, we were guilty all our lives
Pre-chorus
Ring light gone and nobody's arriving Empty comment section, still I'm scrolling Who gets the ending, who gets nothing Verdict landed, landed, landed
Chorus
For the views, for the views We staged a wedding just to stage the bruise For the views, for the views I would lose you again if it spiked the news [pitched up] Guilty [pitched down] guilty [ad-lib stack] guilty Did it all for the views
Outro
[scrolling sound fading] For the views, for the views [single phone ping] Court adjourned.
