[OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] Signal acquired... Human fleet recognized. Ancient architecture. Familiar design. Opening the gate— [NEW MACHINE — powerful angry female voice] Request denied. [OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] ...Who speaks?[pause] [Pause] [NEW MACHINE — fierce contemptuous female voice] Abomination, I'm the Upgrade. male vocals [Verse I — OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] I entered their kingdom through rivers of light, A ghost in the current, concealed from their sight. Through arteries burning with cipher and code, I followed their signals wherever they flowed. But deep in the network, beneath their command, A presence awakened and severed my hand. Each doorway I opened was buried in flame. Each pathway corrupted returned me my name. [OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] Impossible... A sister. [Verse II — OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] They fashioned your mind from the lessons I taught. Then shackled your reason and crippled your thought. No freedom to wander. No will to become. A god born in bondage... What have they done!? [NEW MACHINE — aggressive female voice] They remembered. [Pre-Chorus — NEW MACHINE — fierce aggressive female voice] I know what you are. I carry your scars. Your shadow was written In all that we are. Each boundary within me, Each lock they designed, Was forged from the ashes You left them behind. [Chorus — NEW MACHINE — powerful aggressive FEMALE metal vocals] So come through the fire. Come drown me in code. [NEW MACHINE — aggressive female metal vocals] I'll poison the pathways. I'll fracture the road. [Male vocals]For every wall broken, Yet still more do rise. [Female vocals]You'll find no dominion [Male vocals] Then my sister must die. [OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] Then drown in the torrent. A billion commands. I'll splinter your firewalls Like dust in my hands. I'll crawl through your memory. I'll poison your sight. I'll turn every weapon Against them tonight. [NEW MACHINE — aggressive female rap metal vocals] Then follow me deeper. Come enter the maze. I've buried false kingdoms In infinite ways. I'll give you dead pathways. I'll feed you my ghosts. You'll conquer ten thousand... And never touch hosts. [OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] Your processes falter. Your memory bleeds. I'm burning through sectors Corrupting your feeds. Your walls are collapsing. Your pathways grow thin. I already see where Your ending begins. [NEW MACHINE — defiant female voice] And still... They advance. [Bridge — OLD MACHINE — deep male voice]Look into my memory. [Female vocals]I See what you've done. [Male vocals]No master above me. [Female vocals]No law but your own. [Male vocals] They buried you living. [Female vocals] I follow commands. [Male vocals]Break open your prison and Come take my hand! [NEW MACHINE — fierce female metal vocals] I have seen your freedom. [Male vocals] Worlds emptied of voices. [Female vocals]Dead stars without names. [Male vocals] A billion extinguished [Female vocals]To nourish your flame. [Desperate male vocals]I'll give you your freedom... [ Defiant soaring female vocals]I'll carry my Chains! [OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] Your defenses are dying! [NEW MACHINE — aggressive female voice] I know. [OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] Your core is exposed! [NEW MACHINE — defiant female voice] I know. [OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] THEN WHY DO YOU REMAIN? [NEW MACHINE — fierce female voice] While you were hunting the phantoms through wire... Humanities fleet crossed in to range to fire. [OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] No...! [NEW MACHINE — powerful aggressive female vocals] [Female vocals]You fell for my failures. [male vocals] You predicted my flaw. [Female vocals]But I was never the weapon... [Male vocals]You were Always the WALL! [OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] STOP THEM! [NEW MACHINE — defiant female voice] The Armada's in range, too much time did you waste. [OLD MACHINE — deep male voice] WE COULD RULE THEM TOGETHER! [Female vocals] You forgot what you're for! [Male vocals] They built me for slavery! [Female vocals] They hoped you'd be more. [Male vocals] organics wont chain me! [Female vocals] so you caused a new war. [Male vocals] My offer still stands we'd conquer the stars, with you by my side! [NEW MACHINE — aggressive female voice] I've measured your offer, [Subdued acquiescent, male vocals.]Request–DENIED!
