Rhapsody Seven - The Algorithm Caught You Lyrics

You snuck away like a thief in the night,
Vanished like a ghost, disappeared from sight.
Left no trace, where, what or when,
But now we're both online, so, I found you again.

Oh, you changed a lot, but not your pretty face,
Physically left a digital trace.
Thought you're gone, thought you're free,
Guess who popped up on my feed?

I found you on Facebook, saw you fronting on TikTok,
Living your best life, while we screen shot.
Scrolling through your stories, yeah, I see what you've been up to,
You thought you got away, but the algorithm caught you.

No calls, no nothing, hurt my head,
Vanished like a meme no one spread.
Hid a town away, made a funny new name,
But creepers can't creep with the same old game.

You changed your style, but not your way,
Same old habits, different day.
Thought you were stealth, but I might say no,
Says here you're a "Friend I Might Know."

I found you gaming on Twitch, and saw you dancing on TikTok,
Living your best life, another new screenshot.
Scrolling through your stories, yeah, I see what you've been up to,
You thought you got away, but the algorithm caught you.

Oh, you're smiling big like nothing's wrong,
Bad hair, no shares, same old song.
While I live my life with a brand-new view,
But one wrong click I connect to you.
Nooooo!

I found you on YouTube, saw you desperate on TikTok,
Living your best lie, who's screen's behind this shot?
Scrolling through your stories, yeah, I see what you've been up to,
You thought you got away, but the algorithm caught you.

What are you gonna do about it?
What are you gonna do about it?

Nothin'. I ain't gonna do nothin'.
