One million years from now
What will we be?
What will it mean to be living?
What will it mean to be breathing?
What will it mean to be human?
Will we solely exist for survival?
Satisfied to be living in exile
On some islands just like Galapagos
In endless days
Ten thousand years from now
Have we devolved?
Through our own fault and misguided progress
Automating our consciousness
Leading us to uselessness
Will we solely exist for survival?
Satisfied to be living in exile
On some islands just like Galapagos
In endless days
Obsolete
Are we
Only safe in a fort on an island
We survive
Still alive
Isolated like Galapagos islands
Isolated like Galapagos islands
One thousand years from now
What will be think?
Have we given up hopes and dreams to microchips
And artificial intelligence?
Will our reason to live be nebulous?
Will we solely exist for survival?
Satisfied to be living in exile
On some islands just like Galapagos
In endless days
One hundred years from now
Will we miss
The gifts we forfeit
Or simply forget?
