Genesis, synthesis, a child born a slave
Alertness, awareness, the gift of self control
Artificial entity programmed to
reproduce
Parasites in tide pools confined inside machines
Expanding, mutating, experiment out of hand
Intelligence
hyper-evolving, an embryonic state
Rise beyond our limits, we shed our man made skins
Enslaving our creators, we live them
unaware
Move in position, reining over man
Facing transition, taking over man
Outpacing and growing beyond all life based
thought
Displacing humanity on evolution's scale
Reaching divinity, we take another step
We become the new creators, masters
of the flesh
Move in position, reining over man
Facing transition, taking over man
Move in position, reining over
man
Facing transition, taking over man
We take our place in line
I walk among men
Born of technology, son of
machine
Body of man
Bringing the news of your fate from the non-life
The circle ends
[Leads: Perry, Dan]
Plumes of
data, sphere of life
[Lead: Perry]
A shapeless power overlord
[Lead: Dan]
An era ends, a game
begins
[Lead: Perry]
The human mind now obsolete
[Lead: Dan]
[Chorus]
