Simulated life was conceived To cull our societies Is this air that I breathe? Or symbolic act to ease the anxiety The program you are is diseased Devoid of humanity Extracting our thoughts To live in machines Evolution coerced By corporate beings As our gatekeepers still Walk the earth We live on a grid Stripped of worth (Lead: Petroni) (Lead: Elliott)
