Sovereignty

from Thelema by I'll Be An Empire

/

lyrics

Rebirth of Babylon;
The will of the Great Architect has unfolded
Order out of chaos
Merge with technology, life-extension properties
Hands toward the sun
We worship in circles, the vast expanse
Monument to progression
Full speed ahead, onward to singularity!
We grow together,
We will live on forever in perfect harmony
The wheels are in motion, the proverbial unstoppable force

Inefficient, unintelligent, fucking repulsive

1-2-3-5-8-5-3-2-1

Engineering collapse, exercising sovereignty
System reset
Restore and rebuild
A great city with towers that reach beyond our atmosphere
A monument to our greatness

The heavens at our fingertips...
Colonize the stars
A brave new world to lead our species to it's undeniable destiny
The principle of continuity,
Eradication of disease, intellectual capacity increased
The evolution of man and machine

Eradication of disease, intellectual capacity increased

The side effect we never calculated
Total surveillance, total enslavement
The side effect we never calculated
To live forever is to die everyday



IV. Magnus

We are not alone
The truth is out there
It's been six months since we lost contact
The disconnect, so detrimental
Lack of oxygen, vital organs are failing
Floating through deep space
Frozen in time
Planetary bodies collide, embrace for impact
WE ARE NOT ALONE
The truth is out there
Always watching us

Always watching, always waiting
Always watching us

Waste away your lives staring at a television screen,
While there is a world adventure outside your door
Beautiful, vibrant, so full of life
Yet we romanticize death and decay; the plight of humanity
