Emanate 04:22
Adaptation is no longer enough. The time has finally come to depart and explore. Expanding horizons in every direction. The universe tremors, and pathways are revealed. What has come before us pales in comparison; We will radiate throughout time and space. Never losing sight of the outset or destination, We are the ones who explore to survive. The light gets darker before fading away. With visions and outposts set, we are, at long last, saying goodbye. What has come before us pales in comparison; We will radiate throughout time and space. Emanate (Emanate) Radiate (Radiate) Emanate (Emanate) Radiate (Radiate) What has come before us pales in comparison; We will radiate throughout time and space. Adaptation is no longer enough...

Self-defined world, hedonistically altered on the slightest of notions. Chosen existence within a synthesized reality. As reality fades away, the ice is so carefully incised. These shapes multiply in complexity, you’re lost to a world inside. The horizon stretches out forever- a dimension waiting to be defined. The act of a god in the blink of an eye, power consuming any trace of reason. The darkness of a sky never crafted, morals to be defined within the grid. Simulating hope and love, body and mind. We watch you die. Outside the event horizon, an avatar waits. An embodiment that you formerly possessed. Ever closer to complete dependence, the life once lived decays beyond recognition. Beyond recognition. You defined this reality.

Metropolis I 03:41
A dazzling array of lights and the vibrant pulse of life. A prominent display of architectural proficiency and magnificence. Creation for the exclusive purpose of exhibition. An existence warranted by glorification of our own accomplishments. Society’s collective Magnum Opus: a blasphemy against nature. We are the ones free of ourselves. A dazzling array of lights and the pulse of life. We are the ones free of ourselves. We are the ones born of this place. A dazzling array of lights and the vibrant pulse of life. An endless night from an obstructed sky, An endless night from an obstructed sky.

Expedition 03:34
Paint the night with an eruption of light. Kiss the clouds goodbye, witness the other side - the other side of the sky. The other side of the sky. Punch a hole through the atmosphere, the gift of an abstract mind. Take a step outside reality, and stare back at the world. Dawn the exploration, the chill of frisson. Observe, in elation, our greatest expedition. Taste the fuel and melt into the stars. Escape gravity to transcend the void. Walk on the surface of a dream. ...of a dream. Punch a hole through the atmosphere, the gift of an abstract mind. Take a step outside reality, and stare back at the world. Dawn the exploration, the chill of frisson. Observe, in elation, our greatest expedition. (x3)

Tabula Rasa 05:30
This can’t be all there is to life. The binary existence is a flawed premise with false divisions. We are all born blank. We are a continuum. We are a continuum. I have witnessed the damage of this failing social construct. If we are to progress past these obsolete ideals, we need to start again. How have we not learned from the victims on the screen? Can we not see the pain in front of us? Too many souls lost in this irrelevant war. I have witnessed the damage of this failing social construct. x2 If we are to progress past these obsolete ideals, we need to start again. We are a continuum. We are a continuum.
