LinkedIn Spark - "In the Feed"
(To the tune of "In the End" by Linkin Park)
Verse 1It starts with one post I shared today,A thought-leadership piece, itâs my clichĂ©.I tried so hard to get those likes,But my engagementâs stuck, itâs such a f***t.I sent requests to VPs far and wide,Wrote âLetâs connect!â with corporate pride.My profileâs optimized, my skills are stacked,But still no views, my feedâs gone flat.
Pre-ChorusI posted quotes, I shared my grind,Commented âInsightful!â to stay aligned.I chased endorsements, built my brand,But my InMailâs stuck in no-manâs-land.
ChorusIn the feed, it doesnât even matter,Connections grow, but my networkâs scattered.I tried so hard, but Iâm out of touch,In the feed, nobody cares that much!In the feed, Iâm lost in the scroll,My LinkedIn dreams are taking their toll.I tried so hard, but my posts wonât trend,In the feed, in the feed, in the end!
Verse 2Iâve got a headline that screams âIâm great!âCertified in buzzwords, I dominate.My profile picâs a suit, Iâm looking sharp,But recruiters ghost me, it breaks my heart.I joined some groups, I shared my take,Wrote âGame-changer!â for synergyâs sake.But algorithms bury my every word,My âcongrats on the work anniversaryâ unheard.
Pre-ChorusI posted quotes, I shared my grind,Commented âInsightful!â to stay aligned.I chased endorsements, built my brand,But my InMailâs stuck in no-manâs-land.
ChorusIn the feed, it doesnât even matter,Connections grow, but my networkâs scattered.I tried so hard, but Iâm out of touch,In the feed, nobody cares that much!In the feed, Iâm lost in the scroll,My LinkedIn dreams are taking their toll.I tried so hard, but my posts wonât trend,In the feed, in the feed, in the end!
BridgeIâve got five hundred plus, but who are these folks?Half are bots, and the rest tell bad jokes.I shared my journey, my hustle, my spark,But my analytics say Iâm lost in the dark!I keep on posting, Iâm raising my voice,âLooking for opportunities!ââbut no one rejoiced.Whatâs a thought leader with no one to lead?Iâm just a profile, alone in the feed!
ChorusIn the feed, it doesnât even matter,Connections grow, but my networkâs scattered.I tried so hard, but Iâm out of touch,In the feed, nobody cares that much!In the feed, Iâm lost in the scroll,My LinkedIn dreams are taking their toll.I tried so hard, but my posts wonât trend,In the feed, in the feed, in the end!
OutroIn the end⊠Iâll still send requests,In the end⊠Iâll comment âImpressed!âIn the feed, Iâll keep up the f***t,Linkin Sparkâs networking all through the night!
