[FULL LYRICS – ROMANIZATION & ENGLISH ONLY]
Breakfast to dinner
Algorithm bulletproof
Br-breaking your fingers
Thank you for the comments
It’s because of all your hate
I-I-I-I-I am iconic by mistake
I-I-I-I-I am iconic by mistake
On my tombstone
I-I survived the fame
And I barely changed
Heart, heart it
Heart it harder
Here, heart is like a verb
Come heal it where it hurts
Life’s a simulation got me in a spiral
24/7, more like 25/8
Honestly, are you okay?
Breakfast to dinner
Algorithm bullet proof
Br-breaking your fingers
Thank you for the comments
It’s because of all your hate
I-I-I-I-I am iconic by mistake
I-I-I-I-I am iconic by mistake
Taking a beating, beating
I keep on cheesing, cheesing
Looks are deceiving, deceiving
Act like you knew me know me
Flapping your lips foaming
I just keep on going
Too beautiful to be broken
Life’s a simulation got me in a spiral
24/7, more like 25/8
Honestly, are you okay?
[Chorus: Daniela, Megan, Moka, Iroha]
Hating me is like all you do
Breakfast to dinner
Algorithm bullet proof
Br-breaking your fingers
Thank you for the comments
It’s because of all your hate
I-I-I-I-I am iconic by mistake
I-I-I-I-I am iconic by mistake
But now I am iconic from how much you fuckin’ hate me
Snap my neck, 360, demanding me in 5D
Do this for the dream, na-na, not just for the bag
(Ayy) But the bag is nice though
(Ayy) And I’m so grateful
(Wait) I’m getting kinda spiritual
Been to hell and back, let ’em judge me, crucible
Life’s a simulation got me in a spiral
24/7, more like 25/8
Honestly, are you okay?
Your digital footprint is looking so insane
Breakfast to dinner
Algorithm bullet proof
Br-breaking your fingers
Thank you for the comments
It’s because of all your hate
I-I-I-I-I am iconic by mistake
I-I-I-I-I-I (I), I-I-I-I-I-I (I)
Oh, my God, hahahaha
I-I-I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I-I-I (I)
The lyrics defiantly address the paradox of internet fame built on hatred and mockery, where going viral through criticism becomes a twisted badge of honor. The artists embrace their accidental iconicity while confronting the relentless algorithm and toxic commentary that fuel their visibility, refusing to break despite the constant pressure and scrutiny. Rather than apologizing for their imperfect rise to prominence, they transform the hatred into fuel, celebrating survival and resilience in a digital age where hate itself becomes the path to fame.
