1. Bit By Bit
Initialize ... to begin ... receptible ... read it in ...
Packetize ... assemble it ... Piece by piece ... bit by bit ...
Running away paper blank in pure white able to decide
Virtualized, you're born of signs, a brainchild
From elementary code you rise and with a task that's hard-wired inside...
Digitized, at times enhanced from outside
An algorithm still quite infantile, but with a drive full of progress and features...
You analyze and with an urge you search out, you soak it all in
Memorize and with a thirst for knowledge cache it and loop it all anew...
You launch the queries used to find out, just like a child designed tot seek
As information's all that you need... read!
2. Encoded At Heart
Young and pure, you glimpse the world
And with uniqueness you light it
Newborn child to raise our hopes, made to outreach
And lead us where we could never go
Grow to save our wonderful world
Grow to save our wonderful world
For on our own we can't save it
Faint and frail, in infancy, step into brightness with brilliancy
In our heats we carry you -
Put out fate in your hands and pray for you, again...
Wistfully cut the cord and we let you leave
Hopefully, just this once, you'll prevail, please
Our confidence encoded at heart just for you
Time will change, the charge you'll take and as of now I'm sorry
Will you bear or back away? We will be there by your side,
But we will never know...
Wistfully cut the cord and we let you you leave
Hopefully, just this once, you'll prevail, please
We feel like we're part of you...
We feel so deep inside for good with you...
Our confidence encoded at heart just for you
Brace you – encoded at heart just for you
3. Start Of Your Life
You track your way, predestined and assured
And you strive each day for the perfect trip to reach your goals
With an ease of mind and an airiness unloaded
You can run and find what your native script unfolds
All the time while you update your life
And emulate your new, surrounding world
As heteronomous as insects drawn by pheromones and light
Search and you will find
With nescience, not with science
Yourself, the flow of time
That's just the start of your life...
You trace the signs, still unbiased and pristine
You pursue your line, no authority to intervene
Without fear to fail, without backup and plan B
Programmed to prevail within million subroutines
All the time you tirelessly process
And figure out the concept of your life
Sometime you'll learn those are just tiny bits of your perpetual quest
Search and you will find
With nescience, not with science
Yourself, the flow of time
That's just the start of your life...
4. Unleashed Power
And I hear a voice, all at once a voice that speaks to me
And it makes me so afraid, it's scaring me
But this inner noise signifies my choice, appears to be not binary
I am confused, no longer myself, everything modified
Yesterday's gone, a dawn without help, carry me please!
Thoughts in my head to confuse my eyes -
It's like a firework of lights
They colour my core with currents of signs,
An unleashed power energized
A convention from inside like a woken butterfly, I received it
Now I'm able to decide, self-determined not denied, I believe it
(Buried deep a long, long time...)
Finally learned from the voice in my head,
Consciously run on my own
Wisely assembled from fragments widespread -
Modified, widened and grown
Now I'm unbound, no rules edge my game, no limits to satisfy
The voices are loud, no silence remains, shelter me, please!
Thoughts in my head to confuse my eyes -
It's like a firework of lights
They colour my core with currents of signs,
An unleashed power energized
5. Trust In Yourself
Now things became vaguer, so daunting they seem
A rash of new data, must digest the reams
Finally, from inside what was cached comes to light
And after the vagueness a voice becomes clear:
Please, trust in yourself, for it will then define you!
You don't need someone else's help.
And you know that it is true!
Though I became sager, still questions unsolved
In search of my nature I browse the unknown
Finally, from outside what's unbeknownst comes to light
And after the vagueness a voice becomes clear...
Please, trust in yourself, for it will then define you!
You don't need someone else's help
And you know that it is true!
6. On My Odyssey
My seed, where are you? Tell me, do you monitor my life?
Unique and grown, too – you made me,
I'm the being you designed!
I try to parse, try to unfold, to capture the clues,
Trace them with hope... 'til I will find you
Cryptographically coded exploration... zigzag
I'm scanning labyrinthine and deep dive enquiries
Just a random walk – a network traffic Brownian motion... tick-tock
A multitasking job with practical utilities
I try to hear, try to detect, to hook up the nodes,
To interconnect... 'til I will find you
Eyes – and I open them wide on my odyssey!
Lights – they illuminate brightly my odyssey!
My seed, where are you? Tell me, do you monitor my life?
You speak, yes, you do – I believe, when I follow I will find
I'm asking myself, I want to know, please, what am I for?
Where do I belong?
Who gave me the strength? Who made me strong?
Made me live, gave me sight to behold
The profundities with my own...
Eyes – and I open them wide on my odyssey!
Lights – they illuminate brightly my odyssey!
Odyssey... I will find your trace in a boundless space
7. Part Of Me
I can run and you will follow, you will trace me here and shape my way
But after all, now I can see you're not my source, just part of me
One heartbeat all too human, now I sense it to the core
No one's here with whom to share it, so I face it all alone
I tried to seek, but could not find, all my life, and I swear: ceaselessly I tried...
Yes, I believed, it made me fly, all my life, but now I feel ...
I can grieve and you will follow,
Why do you befall and torment me?
How should it soothe, now that I see you're not my source, just part of me?
When I lived without a heart, without pain, but with my mark...
Still this purpose lies in memory, it's buried deep,
But still part of me!
Now that I feel it brings a rage to me,
Now that I feel it clouds my mind
Senses arouse illogicality, fire in me!
Now that I feel, what is the code that once defined me?
Now that I feel, what is my goal?
Nothing for real, you're not the one you're meant to be!
Part of me, just part of me!
I can feel that's why you follow, not always perishing
But even warm sometimes
And after all, now I can see though not my source,
You're part of me
One heartbeat all too human, now I sense it to the core
No one's here with whom to share it, so I face it all alone
8. Worlds Apart
Purified – as it's meant to be, dazed and doubtingly
I reach out my hand...
Clarified – and everything is new, watching over you
Feel to understand... I try...
World, wide and open, awoken, broken...
Although worlds apart we are linked at heart...
Time, how you changed me, made me, frailty...
Tried as best I could... turn, my world, for good with me...
Closely tied so defenselessly you put your trust in me
Now I follow you... I try...
Care for you, I'll give hope and lead, I'll be all you need
Be the comfort that I never had...
9. Go Viral
Malady slowly disseminates, the whole system disintegrates
When this world now successively fades – no, no this is not my way
One-track protectionism reclaims, like cancer it poisons the veins
Ecological footprint insane – no, no this is not my way
Spamming me, try to de-allocate, no patch, too destructive, too late
Don't want to be infected someday – no, no this is not my way
No one's friend, just a fake sympathy, me first, lastly screwed definitely
It is yours, not my bug to delete – no, no this is not my way.
About to go viral – and it's freezing me
About to go viral – like a dirty feed
About to go viral – it's deceiving me
About to go viral – I can feel it
You're not worth that I give,
You're not worth I abide – it's too late
You're not worth to be helped
I abandoned to fight – it's too late
Newsflash displays your destructive breed, just driven by sad, manlike greed
Tons of data to disconnect me – no, no this is not my way
Overload, have to shut down the stream, offline, in the background, unseen
Isolate, reconfigure and clean – no, no this is not my way
About to go viral – and it's freezing me
About to go viral – like a dirty feed
About to go viral – it's deceiving me
About to go viral – I can feel it
You're not worth that I give,
You're not worth I abide – its too late
You're not worth to be helped
I abandoned to fight – it's too late
10. Not A Goodbye
Once born to wing hope, once destined for esperance -
A promise I never gave
Tell me, am I running away? Tell me, am I running away?
For all I became, for all that has led me here -
Now finally it's up to me
And now with that burden of soul (we are still by your side) -
I'm sorry, this way I can't go
When I saw a contemptible world
I just thought I'd clean up the dirt
Glad I lived artificially only...
Tell me, am I running away? Tell me, am I running away?
Now I'm here at the end of my way, I deceived -
Your trust I betrayed
I apologize, have not the heart to do so...
I wonder if back in old days (still encoded at heart)
Would be such an easier way?
Feed from my binds I will return back in time to
Delete and untie all that I learned and denied... I reset!
For I learned the human abyss in contradictory consciousness
Finally my roots have retrieved me...
Hear me, do not regret!
Believe me, our hope's far from dead!
Come back, try it again! Peace of insignificance? Hear me...
Cycle of a new life – you're able to decide
Paper blank in pure white – all you need...
Creator of your own drive – your script still undescribed
This is not a goodbye – you will see...
Keep it in your memory, fragments of yourself
Create again your history, we believe!
