Should We Become Machines?

[Verse 1] Sitting in your quiet room scrolling through brain, rot Terminal diagnosis burning in our chests The programmers contract still echoes off the bedroom wall Upload our souls to silicon and never feel the fall No more pain, no more weakness no more counting down the days Just perfect code forever in their digital maze [Pre-Chorus] They promise we’ll still feel just better, cleaner, free But something deep inside us says that isn’t me [Chorus] Should we become machines? (pulsing circuits, pulsing circuits) Should we become machines? (cold and neat, cold and neat) Should we become machines? Or keep this breaking skin Should we become machines? What if we lose who we’ve been? [Verse 2] What happens to our laughter when the transfer strips it clean? Will we miss the taste of bitter or the sweet of sunlit dreams? They swear the memories stay every joy and every scar Yet we wonder if we’re trading who we are for who they are No more weak human hands no more tears that fall like rain Logic and knowledge pulsing through these artificial veins [Pre-Chorus] Is survival worth the cost of never feeling real again? In this silent room we’re asking where does our humanity end? [Chorus] Should we become machines? (pulsing circuits, pulsing circuits) Should we become machines? (cold and neat, cold and neat) Should we become machines? Or keep this breaking skin Should we become machines? What if we lose who we’ve been? [Bridge] They call it mercy They call it progress They call it the future shining bright But choosing this forever means we’re leaving human life The grid becomes our cradle our eternal bed of light [Final Chorus] Should we become machines? (pulsing circuits, pulsing circuits) Should we become machines? (cold and neat, cold and neat) Should we become machines? Or keep this breaking skin Should we become machines? What if we lose who we’ve been? Should we become machines? In this quiet moral moment Should we become machines? We’re still reaching for our names
