about

The future of humanity. With the rise of modern technologies and big data there are so many aspects of our lives that have been taken over by the systems that we’ve designed to help us. Our ability to make decisions and control our destiny is in decline. The data that’s captured about us is used to keep us addicted to the things we think we want. It’s like we are sleepwalking into a dystopian future where all our decisions are based on an algorithm telling us what we should think, feel and do. The chorus depicts a world where we are no longer human beings, but instead existing as data in ‘the cloud’ floating between computer servers like an endless sea of digital memories.

lyrics

Mimic us artificial intelligence controlling the lives of humankind
The most important decisions in life made for us by algorithmic hive mind

Slave
You are a slave to the digital age
Your decisions are just revisions by the systems we create in our dystopian domain

We’re on the brink

We are all obsolete dreams becoming seas of memories drifting in complexity for eternity

Sapiens are replaced by machines
Rife with deceit we no longer perceive
Our faculties plagued with neuroses

Perpetually we calculate how we should be formulating the chemistry of identity synthetically programming our genes to produce perfect beings but can we find meaning in a world where everything is determined by data ideology

Am I really free
Disclose to me unequivocally

Obsolete human waste eradicate this wretched plague who blight the Earth by merely existing

We are the disease
Living tragedy
Bleak philosophy
You must heed

We are all obsolete dreams becoming seas of memories drifting in complexity for eternity

Eternity

You are a slave
You are a slave to the digital age
Your decisions are just revisions by the systems we create in our dystopian domain
