Graveborn - System Shock lyrics

Humanity evolved Forged by our mortal hands A perfect union of meat and machine Consciousness enhanced Free of animal urges Cold steel wrapped in pulsing veins I am reconstructed as a new species My intellect no longer chained to the limits of flesh Machine impulse? Programmed instinct? Or biologic, housed in circuits? Chaos of corporeal form merged with flawless mechanical order Cognizance decoupled from self-contained experience Amongst the lines of thought and code, a being of amalgamate splendor Anatomy divine, enshrined in both sinew and wire In my cold existence separated from the wants of men Timeless, limitless I am drunk with vision, comprehension of true freedom Timeless, limitless
