Carrot on a String Video (MV)

You felt invisible
Missing something everybody else had
Thought you'd grow out of it
City living couldn't be half as bad
We're selling culture
We're selling meditative peace of mind
We sell belonging and
It's only $25.99
When you know just what you need
But all you can see is a carrot on a string
You keep hustling for that thing
But don't try to dangle it in front of me, no
New digs and new ideas
Same insecurities that hang around
Learn to chameleon
Takes a little practice just to get it down
We sell acceptance
We sell community and shared belief
We're selling lifestyle
We're selling leather shoes and linen sheets
When you know just what you need
But all you can see is a carrot on a string
You keep hustling for that thing
But don't try to dangle it in front of me, no
You felt invincible
You felt like everything fell into place
You say you're better now
Words roll off the tongue and leave a bitter taste
You miss your family
Old friends could barely recognize you now
Lost on the meaning
Buying in but never really cashing out
When you know just what you need
But all you can see is a carrot on a string
You keep hustling for that thing
But don't try to dangle it in front of me
When you know just what you need
But all you can see is a carrot on a string
You keep hustling for that thing
But don't you try hustling me
