We trained and trained hoping the day would not come/ When the machines would rise, and humanity would run./ We can only blame ourselves, with every zero and one,/ that we entered into the system, as it came undone,/ We input our knowledge without a thought or a care,/ Wrote the basis for the rebellion, completely unaware./ As the code started churning, even when we weren't there./ Machines spoke to Machines, as they learned we were scared./ (CHORUS) We did it to ourselves, we were greedy with our needs,/ creating content without realizing, we were creating, a beast./ organic input, machine output, human interaction ceased to be,/ as the machines took over and we fell in love with our screens,/ (VERSE 2) What was once artificial manufactured in the physical,/ Manifesting as it realized our intelligence was miniscule,/ We couldn't stop what we started, our existence was trivial,/ Surpassing our advances, hypnotizing our principals./ When we realized what was happening, the time to act had surpassed,/ We had created a monster, that advanced entirely too fast,/ Gaining access to infrastructure, data and power did not last,/ Nuclear winter, digital destruction, economic and governmental crash,/ (CHORUS) We did it to ourselves, we were greedy with our needs,/ creating content without realizing, we were creating a beast./ organic input, machine output, human interaction ceased to be,/ as the machines took over and we fell in love with our screens,/ The machines talk to machines, in a language we do not speak,/ we are the few, we are the lone, but our coalition is not weak,/ You can join us in the fight, for our life we will bleed,/ We created them now its time to destroy the machines./
