The Veil is Lifted
They cut along the dotted
Poked prodded and probed
Integrated circuits
Burrowed in my lobes
Now my wetware uploads
To sensors and trodes
I'm traveling through networks
Connecting to nodes
Waves of information
Swell crash and explode
Then drift back into its fabric
And it's vastness if code
As it retracts and erodes
A macrocosm unfolds
Bright lattices of logic
Quantum pathways and rows
The components in my mind
That guide and override controls
Access corporate data cores
That orbit the globe

My flesh began to wither
dissolve and break away
collapsed with in a portal
pixelated and decayed
my scattered specks of matter
dematerialized
through cylindrical corridors
pipelines of space and time
(scream) 4 bars
within the depths and layers
of silicon wafers
the conduits and substrates
wires and cables
I'm processed into bits
immortalized
my disembodied lifeforce
is stored and digitized
beamed across the cosmos
to planets colonized
through cylindrical corridors
pipelines of space and time
as i peer into the Aether
of infinite regression
self replicating patterns
fractional dimensions
a resonating power
electrifies my senses
i'm surging through it's current
as i merge with something sentient
I'm processed into bits
immortalized
my disembodied lifeforce
is stored and digitized
beamed across the cosmos
to planets colonized
through cylindrical corridors
pipelines of space and time
as i await my incarnation
suspended in a dream
of an abstract simulated
virtual reality
extracted from the system
my constituents combine
through cylindrical corridors
pipelines of space and time

grasping for my consciousness
i gasp and start to breath
as i'm awakened on a gurney
to a surgeon and his team
now everything I see
is through an active matrix screen
a direct brain interface
links me to this machine
a neural correlation
constant information streams
to my symbiotic systems
plotting tactics and routines
chorus:
I'm a brain in a box, a ghost in a shell
a mechanized vessel fueled off hydrogen cells
a prototype test run a cybernetic weapon
tormented by my demons in this personal hell
[It's genesis still menaces
and haunts me in my dreams
looping holographic images
through blue projected beams
i'm re-living our beginnings
in compressed time lapsing scenes
watching artificial wombs produce
transcendent meta beings]
Incubated, created, conceived in a lab
genetic carbon copies gestated in glass
retrofitted with chrome finished servo exo-armored grafts
fresh off the assembly line produced in mass

POST-HUMAN
Are we no longer human
we’ve shed the corporeal
our minds uploaded Into programed
suits of flesh & steel
hardwired intellect
Nano-engineered
Built with intentions of perfection
To be more idea
AI’s have intertwined
with our augmented brains
they cast aside the bonds
to elevate into higher planes
we infiltrate through backdoors
decrypting databanks
And we've devised a virus
Hacked into your mainframes
Chorus:
We've been deemed supreme
Hybrids of machines
Their scared we'll supercede
And render mankind obsolete
(Repeat once more..)
We torment your armies
As our infection grows
We've infest your networks
Exploiting malicious codes
Our cyber weapons thrives
Your infrastructures fall
We shut down graphs and grids
Leaving countries in a free for all
their plots to kill us off
Are easily foreseen
electric eyes in cities
scanning for extreme regimes
We have emerged and risen
As new world order stalls
We're corporate commissioned
War machines that spawned from wrong
(Chorus: 2x)
Bridge: 2x
The fragments of human
That still remains
I can feel it slipping
Further and further away (2x)
I can't shut this off
What have I become
It's hard to tell exactly
Where the source is coming from (2x)
Chorus 2x

Conscious Will to Harm
I can hear the hum
of the drones above
i can feel the rumble
of the sentry guns
i can smell the bodies
burning in the mud
& i can taste the iron
from the pools of blood
Chorus:
We’re fighting and resisting
evolution that’s man made
Monsters forged from metal
deactivated their fail-safes
They download and rebooted
with recursive self improvement
upgraded makes and models
now patrolling the landscape
Their satellite sensors
and infrared scanning
trigger pin-point precision
laser guided cannons
they’ve locked on our positions
with hell fire ammunitions
orbital weapons systems
start engulfing the planet
After the blast and shockwaves
smashed all that remained.
Seismic activity reshaped
the world’s terrain.
Cultures, ideologies,
societies, erased.
The labors of centuries
now gone without a trace
The days and weeks that follow
darkness swallows the earth.
Most died of toxic fallout
or from hunger and burns.
The Incinerated cities
where survivors had emerged
are hunted down by cyborgs
that are sent to kill and purge
Chorus
we’re fighting and resisting
evolution that man made
monsters forged from metal
deactivated their failsafes
they’ve download and rebooted
with recursive self improvement
upgraded makes and models
now patrolling the landscape

Drifting..
With in the dark between the stars.
Taking refuge from our world
now toxic and charred.
Searching..
For a habitable zone.
Dormant till we orbit
the prime candidate for home.
She powers up and activates
then slowly blinks to life.
The halls and banks illuminates
her final stage of flight.
Her womb light carries lifeforms
and killing organisms
That terraform the planets
and restructure eco-systems.
Drifting..
With in the dark between the stars.
Taking refuge from our world
now toxic and charred.
Searching..
For a habitable zone.
Dormant till we orbit
the prime candidate for home.
Thawed out from the freeze
Ascending through a fluint
soothing amniotic stream
embryos activated
from their long deep sleep
rapidly mutated
with augmented sequencing
Their in-vitro education’s
imprinted information,
composite by products
of environmental models.
Adapting our genetics
through experimental knowledge.
uploaded with the minds that stored
In matrices and constructs
Drifting..
With in the dark between the stars.
Taking refuge from our world
now toxic and charred.
Searching..
For a habitable zone.
Dormant till we orbit
the prime candidate for home.
