Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sarah checks her feed again at three AM
Sees another developer's promotion trend
Compares her code to what she thinks she lacks
While anxiety builds up behind her back
The endless scroll of perfect careers
Feeds her doubts and amplifies her fears

[Chorus]
Time to detox from the LinkedIn hype
Track your feelings, identify the type
Awareness, patterns, curate and reduce
Replace with real talks, that's the therapeutic use
Step by step we're breaking free
From comparison's psychology

[Verse 2]
Week one starts with tracking how you feel
Before you scroll and after - make it real
Write it down, the emotions that arise
When someone else's success meets your eyes
Are you inspired or feeling small?
Does this post lift you up or make you fall?

[Chorus]
Time to detox from the LinkedIn hype
Track your feelings, identify the type
Awareness, patterns, curate and reduce
Replace with real talks, that's the therapeutic use
Step by step we're breaking free
From comparison's psychology

[Bridge]
Unfollow accounts that make you doubt
Mute those keywords that stress you out
Replace that scrolling time instead
With coffee talks and connections spread
One-on-one conversations heal
Much better than that endless reel

[Verse 3]
When you're ready to return once more
You'll see the platform like never before
Metacognitive awareness shows
How each post affects the way mind flows
You're in control, you choose your feed
Taking only what you really need

[Chorus]
Time to detox from the LinkedIn hype
Track your feelings, identify the type
Awareness, patterns, curate and reduce
Replace with real talks, that's the therapeutic use
Step by step we're breaking free
From comparison's psychology

[Outro]
LinkedIn detox, therapeutic way
For developers who've lost their way
From impostor thoughts to clarity
That's clinical psychology
