Modern Prometheus (Franken-Flow)

[Intro] Flip the myth New lab, same question [Verse 1] A table of steel where the lightning lands White coats trading wonder hand to hand Here the fire is electrical, bright and cold A new kind of theft from the dark of old We stitch ideas where the limits are thin Breathing “Can we?” before “Should we begin?” That’s the modern twist of the ancient name Creation arrives and demands we explain Because making life, or minds that learn Is not just a flex for the clever and stern It’s a mirror with voltage, a beautiful test Of whether our wisdom can match our zest [Pre-Hook] The spark got smarter, the questions got deep Now the night in the lab doesn’t let us sleep [Hook] Modern Prometheus, light in the wire Hands on the future, hearts on fire Build it up high, then step back slow What wakes up next? Do we really know? Modern Prometheus, same old flame New machinery, same old game The thrill of the “yes,” the weight of the why That’s where the living questions lie [Verse 2] From cloned cell whispers to thinking code We keep finding doors where none were showed And every breakthrough gets headlines fast Like we love the leap more than what comes past But stories like mine are not antique They survive because they still can speak They tell us power needs a conscience, too That invention without care can turn on you Not because knowledge is wrong by design But because speed can outrun the wiser mind So make, discover, dare, create Just don’t confuse brilliance with being great [Bridge] It’s not anti-light to ask for care It’s how you prove you deserve to bear The fire in full, without becoming The thing that fears what it has awakened [Hook] Modern Prometheus, light in the wire Hands on the future, hearts on fire Build it up high, then step back slow What wakes up next? Do we really know? Modern Prometheus, same old flame New machinery, same old game The thrill of the “yes,” the weight of the why That’s where the living questions lie [Outro] The myth never died It just changed uniforms
