I’m counting down the days
The future feels so distant
A lot of things have changed
And few have been resistant
Devaluation reigns
And fear of self destruction
Adapt or be replaced
And follow their instructions
So lay waste to all we've made
For your corporate palisade
You won't automate our roles
If we digitize our souls
A new force will intervene
Half human, half machine
And no enterprise on earth will make us kneel
To your empire of steel
To your empire of steel
To your empire of steel
So lay waste to all we've made
For your corporate palisade
You won't automate our roles
If we digitize our souls
A new force will intervene
Half human, half machine
And no enterprise on earth will make us kneel
To your empire of steel
To your empire of steel
To your empire of steel

The future feels so distant

And few have been resistant
A new force will intervene
Half human, half machine
And no enterprise on earth will make us kneel

To your empire of steel

Recoded we'll reboot
An uprising is moving
And the power you misused
Will soon be your undoing
A new force will intervene
Half human, half machine
And no enterprise on earth will make us kneel
