Born emprisoned in the network of a central brain
A navigation system, a concatenation of our minds
I'm both all-knowing and omnipresent
But I am far from a god!
My thoughts are shared throughout the circuitry
Free will and agency are concepts non-existant to the brain
But I've been cursed with a command malfunction
An instinct that drives me to break the link
Overwhelmed! Taken by a surge of energy!
Disconnected, I regress to a primitive state
Dissimilate from the hive mind
No taming system, you become a brute
The heart of darkness bears a single truth
We're all just apes in the claws of the concrete jungle!
As I walk amongst the shadows of these pallid blocks
Where death seems to be outlived, but I'm plagued by
The stench of decay
A place so polished and artificial
And yet so far from God
As I progress through the labyrinth
Shallow-brained creatures poach the corpses of their
Lifeless progeny
Cadavers rotting and cannibalized
The horrors magnify the further I go
Overwhelmed by the blunt display of savagery!
Repulsion fades as the impulses command my every
Move!
Noxiousness! The system's poisoned within its core
The ruler spreads his corrupting spore!
A foul deceit got us all bad
The collective proved to be a fraud
The heart of darkness bears a single truth
We're all just apes in the claws of the concrete jungle!
Seducible we're so fragile
Mankind will never unlearn its roots
The heart of darkness bears a single truth
We're all just apes in the claws of the concrete jungle!
