F/Future Utopia/Children Of The Internet (feat. Es Devlin & Dave)
[Verse 1: Dave] Look I grew up in a good but a changin' age My wife and kids - Damon Wayans When the youth club was everybody's favourite place Where if you spoke to a girl then it was face-to-face Bruh, I seen the heart of the 'hood turn trendy Kids lose interest Parks turn empty Social media's got us all less friendly Now, can't you see the irony?
