Scrolling Trap - By: Evelyn White

I’m stuck in a trap theres no going back

Tik tok, insta, snap

All handed to you nice and gift wrapped

They are addictive and attention seeking

Controlling mind reaping

Manipulating while you’re scrolling

Unaware of anything else

Your ducks could be frying your family dying

But you wouldn't care wouldn't even notice

All because your to busy scrolling
