The Great Program Lyrics

There came a dream

A neon prophecy

Where the elders bow

And the young must vow

To an AI judiciary

A figure dressed supreme

Asked me, "What then do you plea?"

He saw through time to a future crime

A murder of the first degree

The Great Program

The folly of man

Built to hack the firmware of reality

To grapple with what it all is in actuality

Multi-prism, polyrhythm, color-schism,

The universe embodied the algorithms

A symbiotic cosmic totality

I stood there with a sense of fatality

Just a grain of sand in a sandbox plan

The silicone saw me as a threat

To society down the line we met

A future me, my manifesto made

To secretly spread dissonant tirades

Yes, I'll find the man

Father of the digiplan

Who's analog son omnipotent runs

Tyrannical securicams

And thence cut the head

Rendering its power dead

So the people rule

Like an ancient fool

Who walked over a rocky edge

To govern like the golden times

To govern like the golden times

To govern like the golden times

To govern like the golden times

Great Program

The folly of man

You who blackened justice, legality

We will show you your temporality

Multi-prism, polyrhythm, color-schism

The universe may body your algorithms

A symbiotic, cosmic totality

But I foresaw your looming mortality

You can only mock your fated clock

You can only mock your fated clock

You can only mock your fated clock

You can only mock your fated clock
