Acolytes

Transformation / transfiguration / to overcome the limitations Of our own mortality / we must transcend biology Cast off the shackles of your physical existence Deny your slow senescence / Reject your inbuilt obsolescence And so we give our lives in service All to serve a greater purpose Bow your head / And bend your knee In the name of progress / All hail the endless process Into the mouth / Of the machine We give our lives / In service... Symbiotic evolution / The exponential Curve of adaptation / Becoming more than human Transubstantiation of the flesh Consuming life to conquer death And so we give our lives in service All to serve a greater purpose We bow our heads in worship of Our man-made god Bow your head / And bend your knee In the name of progress / All hail the endless process Into the mouth / Of the machine We give our lives / In service of the singularity Bow your head Bend your knee And serve!
