Transition Lyrics - Destiny's End

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]
