Lyrics
(We are always conquering nature
"Human nature" will be the last part of nature
To surrender to man
The battle will indeed be won but who, precisely, will have won it?
For the power of man to make himself what he pleases means,
as we have seen, the power of some men to make other men
what they please)
We living in a brave new world
Full of strange new cravings
A little less dope
And a lot more vaping
STI's and other viral sensations
Just 'cause it's new
That don't make it innovation
I had to switch up the vista
Flickr to Insta
Flipped thru some pictures
Man I clicked thru some sisters
Seen a Tegan and a Sara
Sabrina and a Lara
A Venus and Serena
And a Tia and Tamera
Im still looking for smthg
Im not seeing in the mirror
Will a million pictures
Really help me see it any clearer tho?
Are we looking for a miracle
Or merely pheromones
Or just not being alone
Growing weary?
Was talking all this theory
With a woman named Siri
I nearly fell in love
So I had to pull the plug
Seems kinda like we're drug fiends
When what we stream
Hits the blood stream
Touching us deep
Beneath the touch screens
(The main objection is that if man chooses
to treat himself as raw material
Raw material he will be
We've been trying to have it both ways
It is impossible
Either we are rational spirit
Obliged forever to obey
the absolute values of "the tao"
Or else we are mere nature
To me kneaded and cut into new shapes
For the pleasures of masters)
We've been trapped in this fast-paced rat race
And now they turned the race track into ad space
Tracked, traced when I open up a map: waze
Or any chat-based app
In the last days
Where have all the poets gone?
Well can't hold our focus long enough
