A follower is a Moniker

You say you got a lot of followers I'd say you got supporters Because a follower is just a moniker Unless they follow orders You say you got a lot of friends online And sharing makes you closer So you give them your attention like You care about their exposure People treat popularity As the gift that keeps on givin But once it gives you all it's got You'll want to remain hidden Being talked about and having clouts Is the greatest way of living Until your not allowed to talk it out Or explain it in your kitchen So you lock it down till there's not a sound Or a way that they could listen But when you talk its loud & what I'm talking about What you say won't remain privileged I won't tell you who to listen to Or lecture like it's physics So think it through your piece to move To better your position What seems improved can be removed And mess with your condition Complete cocoon to wings that move together like reflections What seems to me may seem to you Way better through your lenses So Can we agree on the things we view Depends on our perceptions If it's nice to me is ice to you I'll give you my refreshments The kind of drinks that I'd assume You'd sip even if expecting
