Powder Black - I Hate Texting lyrics

[Verse 1-Powder Black] I hate texting, it seems like everybody does it I hate it, and I made this song about it just because it's 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 stop-ping After every sentence and hitting send It's a waste of time when all you've words, you've written them Calls were invented first, but you figure it'd be backwards Cuz texts came after but phonecalls are faster You can get more information out quick By talking-and not typing, hearing loud clicks And your average text message ain't about sh** So I usually ignore them and the sender is now pissed Talk's easy, but texting ive gotta concentrate like Auschwitz To make sure they're getting what I mean, now this.. [Hook] I hate texting, folks act like it's the best thing, but that's 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, I'd rather hear a voice Not to mention, its hard to type on my phone And since I don't text, I guess I'll 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 s** 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 won't fall for that If you send me one, im prolly gonna call you back Called her up and actually tried to chit-chat 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 sk**s to have a conversation Then you shouldn't 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 you've got to send a short message, it's the best way But its not if you've got a lot of things to say I'm not the type that checks my phone constantly To some people, that's really important but its not to me I'd 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 don't respond to them right away, then folks get pissed off People try to tell me that they're 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 won't be talking much through the day Cuz for all I know, this whole exchange could be lies Cuz I can't hear your voice or see your eyes, And That's why [Final Hook] I hate texting, folks act like it's the best thing, but that's just not true I hate texting, its depressing, im not texting you I hate texting, cuz I hate guessing, what you're trying to say Im confessing, I can't gage your inflection when you text, but I probably wouldn't care anyway
