lyrics

In the beginning There was only emptiness Singularity All of matter compressed The great expansion Space and time begin to progress Our evolution Burdened us with mortal experience Forced into life, birthed into pain Brought out of nothing with nothing to gain Raised in a state of invisible walls Shackled in place before you can crawl Grind to the bone, day after day Keep your head down, you've got nothing to say Trapped in a cycle you cannot escape This is your life, welcome your fate Existence is a curse that we endure on this planet Cranial captivity, imprisoned in our body Sentient self-awareness of our cosmic unimportance Burden of humanity borne until death Pushed to the edge, ready to break A smile all that you're able to fake Cracks in your psyche beginning to show Shedding the flesh of all that you know Taking your life in your own hands Reject authority and their demands Develop technology to ascend We can surpass the modern man I am the new overlord Unfeeling, eternal I am I am I am Body replaced with a metallic hull Brain encased in an impervious skull Digital age now at its peak Capabilities exponentially increased Transformation now complete A misanthropic death machine Dismantling society Targeting the world's elite Corpses scattered throughout cities Stacking bodies high without pity Lifting the weight of life Off the shoulders of humanity I have become the destroyer of worlds
