Lloyd Price
Reining In The Machine
We got machines
To do everything we can do
Man-made machines
Doing everything for you
We maximise their intelligence
And made futureproof resolve
And with our technological advances
We watched the machines evolve
Man made them in our image
And loaded weapons to use and fight
So is this our end or their future?
Or will our world be deleted tonight?
And now I stand here staring
Out across the silicone land
Or are we all beyond caring
When passwords start failing
Signals the rise of the machines
We got machines
To do everything we can do
Man-made machines
Doing everything for you
I am machine
I digitised your voices
And sampled your dreams
I am Machine
From analogue to digital
Synthesised to extreme
I am Machine
Don't blame the pioneers
For this futurist reigeme
Not just Machine
Evolved to have feelings
Like humans I breathe
Advanced I avoid
Virus and disease
Reining in the machines
Draining resources
Killing our dreams
Reining in the machines
Artificial mechanical
Replicating our genes
Reining in the machines
Machines...
Mobile phones taking images
Catch us sleeping on the subway
While watching ourselves go viral
Then blame the apps that brought us fame
Posting every minute of
Every hour losing seconds a day
Or are we all beyond caring
When passwords start failing
Signals the rise of the machines
Reining in the machines
Draining resources
Killing our dreams
Reining in the machines
Artificial mechanical
Replicating our genes
Reining in the machines
Machines...
I am Machine
