Off the Grid

The song tells the story of a high-pressure, social-media–driven marketing professional who has spent her life chasing recognition, likes, and status. Through snapshots of work deadlines, scrolling feeds, and boardroom pressure, she honestly reveals the anxiety and emptiness behind her need to be seen. Over time, she experiments with stepping back—“going off the grid”—and discovers a quieter, more sustaining source of worth and identity.

Lyrics

Verse 1     
Midnight rain — mmm-hmm — screen still glowin’     
Scroll, scroll, heart rate’s growin’     
Boss says "game’s already chaaangin’" — before I learn the rules     
Mirror walls — crowd keeps cheerin’     
But it’s all smoke I’m fearin’     
Chasin’ wins that keep disappearin’ — leaves me feelin’ used

Pre-Chorus     
I’ve been runnin’ runnin’ for a crown     
But that crown keeps fallin’ down

Chorus     
Off the grid, off the grid     
That’s where I’m gonna live     
Turn it off, let it go-o-oh     
Find a truth I can knooow     
Off the grid, off the grid     
Lose it all, still I win     
Yeah, yeah, ye-e-ah     
Off the grid, off the grid

Verse 2     
Poker face on every posting     
Bluffin’ hard, but I’m ghosting     
There’s a place I’ve been quietly hopin’ — money’s never found     
Whispers call from a better city     
Not for sale, not so pretty     
Different love, stronger pity — keeps my two feet down

Pre-Chorus     
I’ve been runnin’ runnin’ for a crown     
But that crown keeps fallin’ down

Chorus     
Off the grid, off the grid     
That’s where I’m gonna live     
Turn it off, let it go     
Find a truth I can knooow     
Off the grid, off the grid     
Lose it all, still I win     
Yeah, yeah, ye-e-ah     
Off the grid, off the grid

Bridge     
Lights out — now I see     
More to me than what they read     
Found a love that doesn’t leave     
And it’s settin’ me free

Final Chorus     
Off the grid, off the grid     
That’s where I’m gonna live     
Turn it off, let it go-o-oh     
Find a truth I can knooow     
Off the grid, off the grid     
Lose it all, still I win     
Yeah, yeah, ye-e-ah     
Off the grid, off the grid
