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]
