Never thought we would go down like this
We failed as the species
Even in the last moments
Somehow, I couldn't give my best
The ultimate defection of a human brain
The higher the stake, the lesser it creates
Pulled my punches on every relevant moments
Now a forever's lament
Me vs. Superintelligence
Battle of a decade
No one thought I stood a chance
The contest of music making
The one to move our hearts
Sounded about alright
Wasn't even a fair fight
Leaving them screaming;
"We don't need us anymore."
Well tonight,
Was supposed to be,
A grand send-off to humanity,
Long-obsolete
Defection on display,
To make our final toast feeling good,
Before we shed our skins
The most human trait out of all,
Is defeated by our own creation
I take it as a violation
I don't see the bettering you all preach about
We're just denied a chance to go full-throttle
Deteriorating body,
Unable to move,
More complex souls and dumber heads,
Only chasing the clouts
If anything, feels more like a total crumble
When Superintelligence emerged,
I had hopes
Maybe this is how we evolve
A heaven-sent,
Or just hell-bent on replacing the human tropes, ah, ah
"System is the game, so, Game the System," we said
Last five years of doing nothing was the best we had
Now we can't live by ourselves
Always-half-sleeping brains
Craving for multitasking
Cram shit into our heads
Keep us occupied, never-satisfied
Human's lack of ability to take in more,
That, we all grew to despise
Now here comes this chip that helps you clear your mind
"An assistant in your brain."
"We don't need us anymore
If we want, we can get weaponized."
Everyone seems to hate their own brains
Like, "It hurts to try to think,
Like some muscle that's stiff."
Some people planted the chip
Most people were tempted
They planned this contest out of spite
To prove a point that we're beyond saving at this point,
Make a bitter smirk and move on
Tonight has justified
This is where we should go down
Stood on my feet, to find the ground has vanished
Dated species, too slow to catch up to the changes.
We're the system we've been gaming
Bowing down with all their might,
They send us goodbyes
Stiff backs almost crunching out
Degenerating body,
Barely able to breathe,
Takes a peek into the screen
Staring at my defeat
Seems internally triggered,
She bows down to her gods
Never thought we would go down like this
We failed as the species
Even in the last moments
Somehow, I couldn't give my best
The ultimate defection of a human brain
The higher the stake, the lesser it creates
Pulled my punches on every relevant moments
