Grinding Down
The centralization of power
Leads to the
Dehumanization of people
Sacrificing one’s own
Autonomy and spirit
To the soul grinding gears
Of the machine
It is not what
The “They” ‘s want
It is what occurs
When “We” let
Our guard down
Trusting a system
That excludes intuition
Sanity and self realization
Not listening in fool / full
Or in part to
The wisdom of
Our collective heart
One that knows
We are all one
All one consciousness
Which includes everything
Before and after infinity
Individual sparks of divinity
.
“Machines (Or Back To Humans)”
“It’s a Machine’s world
Don’t tell me I ain’t got no soul
When the machines take over
It ain’t no place for rock and roll
They tell me I don’t care
But deep inside I’m just a man
They freeze me they burn me
They squeeze me they stress me
With smoke-blackened pistons of Steel they compress me
But no-one, but no-one, but no-one Can wrest me away
Back to Humans.
We have no disease,
No troubles of mind
No thank you please,
No regard for the time
We never cry, we never retreat
We have no conception
Of love or defeat.
What’s that Machine noise
It’s bytes and megachips for tea
It’s that Machine, boys
With Random Access Memory
Never worry, never mind
Not for money, not for gold.
It’s software it’s hardware
It’s heartbeat is time-share
It’s midwife’s a disk drive
It’s sex-life is quantised
It’s self-perpetuating a parahumanoidarianised.
Back to Humans
Back to Humans.
Back to Machines.
Living in a new world
Thinking in the past
Living in a new world
How you gonna last
Machine world…
It’s a Machine’s world…
Change.
Back to Humans”

It is not that machines dehumanize
(Another clever clichéd scapegoat)
It is that the machine dehumanizes
