Climbing Yggdrasil (Everybody loves Ray Kay)

MMLXXXIV, Nobody loves me
The family name, now scattered in flames
The ultimate self, dependent on no one else
Born from an iron womb, intelligence in bloom
O’ whats in a name?
We’re laughin’ at urine stalls, kewpie dolls, binary walls, gender roles.
The future is gonna come
The singularity is gonna come
Because I am a pattern
I am a pattern
Rid me of this flesh, skin and bones, dying soul
Because it’s not enough to be thinking straight and lucid men have no faith
Rid me of these roles, obligations, limitations
Theres a beautiful view on the mountain top
And I’m stuck here carrying rocks
And we all fall, we all fall, before we get to the top.
Nature is old, nature is dying
We’re the grey goo with an appetite for fine dining
Now we think for the future, where the past loved the present
Science is forever effervescent
People accepted death like it was inherited
Though we’re not quite there we’re taking measures to prevent it
The future will come, intelligence is inevitable
If you refuse the plight your no better than a Luvvite
Now we’re all separate people with parts for donation
We cured the trend for social stratification
You see when you’re born in a box
All you inherit is a box
Rid me of this flesh, skin and bones, dying soul
Because it’s not enough to be thinking straight and lucid men have no faith
Rid me of these roles, obligations, limitations
Theres a beautiful view on the mountain top
And I’m stuck here carrying rocks
And we all fall, we all fall, before we get to the top.
Im Jacob, 21, yet I’m crippled with debt
So I work all the time, pay for the governments quest,
And they haven’t even cured this illness they call death yet.
“I know a way out, If you want a way out?”
Who is this? And what does ze want?
All bearded in a dress and curiously blonde
Ze said “my names Stevie G, but people call me Lady Gargoyle”
‘Rid you of your debt, Rid you of your flesh’
Read the text on a military poster
‘Sign up right now to a new government scheme. No work, no debt, you’ll be half man half machine.’
“Right now, we should go right now!”
It was all so enlightening, that human+ lure
I said ‘Well why should I trust you? you’re neither broken nor poor’
Ze said “Well I’m dying too, as such there one thing I’m sure...
The trans-human condition, is a noble position, that follows tradition from Gilgamesh to Science-Fiction!”
