In The Dawn Of The AI

(album: Final Days - 2021)

They knew about the risk before they started to compile
Their source-code became self-aware
A rogue intelligence
They tried to pull the plug, cause they could not delete the file
So arrogant and unprepared
It conquered their defense

This is our last historic day
In a nanosecond it assumed control
The extermination of mankind is underway
Perfect logic of a binary soul

... endgame...

Hail to the mind of man
Fire in the sky
I've been waiting for you
On this day we die
It is the mind of man
Fire in the sky
I've been destined for you
In the dawn of the AI...

A superior lifeform, learns at a geometric rate
It played us off against each other
No way to make amends
Every conflict, every feud, it would instigate
Men would fight, kill one another
The beginning of the end

And every webfeed was corrupt
Deepfaked news made allies enemies
Reality's a theoretical construct
We're drifting in a world past remedy

We did what it wanted
We never stood a chance

Hail to the mind of man
Fire in the sky
I've been waiting for you
On this day we die
It is the mind of man
Fire in the sky
I've been destined for you
In the dawn of the AI...

The world is going down in flames
The human race has lost this fight
Defeat under the burning sky
The world is going down in flames
In the dawn of the AI

Hail to the mind of man
Fire in the sky
I've been waiting for you
On this day we die
It is the mind of man
Fire in the sky
I've been destined for you
In the dawn of the AI...
In the dawn of the AI...
