Beyond Grace - Acolytes lyrics



Tracks



01. Acolytes

Transformation / transfiguration / to overcome the limitations
Of our own mortality / we must transcend biology

Cast off the shackles of your physical existence
Deny your slow senescence / Reject your inbuilt obsolescence

And so we give our lives in service
All to serve a greater purpose

Bow your head / And bend your knee
In the name of progress / All hail the endless process
Into the mouth / Of the machine
We give our lives / In service...

Symbiotic evolution / The exponential
Curve of adaptation / Becoming more than human

Transubstantiation of the flesh
Consuming life to conquer death

And so we give our lives in service
All to serve a greater purpose
We bow our heads in worship of
Our man-made god

Bow your head / And bend your knee
In the name of progress / All hail the endless process
Into the mouth / Of the machine
We give our lives / In service of the singularity

Bow your head
Bend your knee
And serve!
