lyrics

(Shakir)
I guess I'm still guessing, stressing, caressing my ego
Long enough to drop bombs on my closest amigos 
And all you hard work turns to letters, but letters are mean
It's fucked up, I'm here bugging at a line on a screen
But what does that mean? Who gets cut out? What gets negated?
By the personhood translated that a Mac screen created
Cuz a phone in your hand; a mind on the outside
Forced to face itself with a diluted decayed pride and a mitigated brain
Kinda like a cheap beer
It doesn't taste as good but it'll get me from here to there
Circle to square, living to living well
Blowing lies outta my eyes from the heat of a digital hell
I wouldn't say I'm trapped, cuz I know that I'm free
Although the "norm" will crush the spirit if it must disagree
Somehow I think we're kinda passed a gendered anthropomorphic description of an an energy pervading in the depths on an encryption code
Yet through technology the humans are gone
Because the Uncanny Valley, was always a con
And even though our glasses help us see clear
You won't be quite as happy when your eyes disappear 

Robots are already here with their lives in their hands
Data scripts in their portable pineal glands
Microchips in the miniature promised land
So won't you tell me who's on?

Humans die by design

(Braden)
I think my brain been frayed
We all absorbed, reforming normalcy in our ways
Forged among the firewalls and analog blaze
Our discourse rearranged, even Liquid fell pray to these changes
Now they're crawling in my mental
All these bots in my thoughts, antiquated exponentials
Can't forget fast enough, I can barely keep up
With the tech it's a must to progress
Guess I just gotta
Try and be elastic, megabits and plastic
Wrap around my wrist and stay affixed beyond the casket
That's the tactic is to worm in, subvert my cerebellum
Til I find myself complicit in the future they're foretelling
(But what's it looking like?)
A fabricated way of life
Digitize the mind's horizon in the modern zeitgeist
Memory dot E X E
I burn my brain into CD
and then upload and re-encode my DNA to data streams now
Oh jeez! I'm hearing all my thoughts in mp3
See in 720p
Run at 3k M H Z
'Til reality be looking like it does within my screen
and the ghost in the machine begins to resemble me

I see the androids are already here
with their lives in their hands,
data scripts in the portable pineal gland
Microchips in the miniature promised land
So don't you ask me who's on

Humans die by design
