[Verse 1Powder Black] I hate texting, it seems like everybody does it I hate it, and I made this song about it just because its Getting to the point that its really bothering me If I want to talk to you, I want to hear your voice, not read When communicating, the way that gets top speed Is conversing with another person, not stopping After every sentence and hitting send Its a waste of time when all youve words, youve written them Calls were invented first, but you figure itd be backwards Cuz texts came after but phonecalls are faster You can get more information out quick By talkingand not typing, hearing loud clicks And your average text message aint about shit So I usually ignore them and the sender is now pissed Talks easy, but texting ive gotta concentrate like Auschwitz To make sure theyre getting what I mean, now this.. [Hook] I hate texting, folks act like its the best thing, but thats just not true I hate texting, its depressing, im not texting you [Verse 2] I hate texting, and if I had a choice Instead of reading paragraphs, Id rather hear a voice Not to mention, its hard to type on my phone And since I dont text, I guess Ill end up likely alone I tried to talk to this girl, and she said she only texts So I texted her a couple times, cuz I wanted sex Put my phone down, saw the blinking light so I looked Seven messages it looked like she was writing a book Text a whole conversation? I wont fall for that If you send me one, im prolly gonna call you back Called her up and actually tried to chitchat But then she had nothing to say, let me kick facts Nowadays, people use texting as a way out Scared to talk to folks, but text and got a lot to say now If you lack the social skills to have a conversation Then you shouldnt have a phone, and ive been waiting to say [Hook] [Verse 3] I hate texting, but I understand its necessary And I use it sometimes, but I do it very rarely If youve got to send a short message, its the best way But its not if youve got a lot of things to say Im not the type that checks my phone constantly To some people, thats really important but its not to me Id rather just talk, even if I talk awkwardly Cuz unless their unlimited, they can put you into poverty Not really, but they can be a big cost And If you dont respond to them right away, then folks get pissed off People try to tell me that theyre too busy to chat But you can send me 30 texts in 15 minutes flat? So if texting is the way you prefer to communicate Then we probably wont be talking much through the day Cuz for all I know, this whole exchange could be lies Cuz I cant hear your voice or see your eyes, And Thats why [Final Hook] I hate texting, folks act like its the best thing, but thats just not true I hate texting, its depressing, im not texting you I hate texting, cuz I hate guessing, what youre trying to say Im confessing, I cant gage your inflection when you text, but I probably wouldnt care anyway
texting, text, hate, cuz, folk
