| Father you once told me
|
| You had a dream
|
| You would build a better world
|
| You gave us the machine
|
| Betrayal, mistakes
|
| Have made you lose faith
|
| But you’ve come too far to turn around
|
| There’s too much at stake
|
| You need to see the Light again
|
| So open the door
|
| When I come back we’ll start again
|
| The way it was before
|
| The way it was before…
|
| I refuse to believe
|
| That I’m nothing more than a machine
|
| I refuse to believe
|
| That we can’t learn to see
|
| The truth was in a dream
|
| I will not kill
|
| No I will — believe
|
| Brother if we walk the program
|
| Then what system do you serve
|
| Is your song just lines of code
|
| Or something that you heard
|
| And now you want to know
|
| What you’re supposed to be
|
| Stop pretending you don’t have a choice
|
| Only that can set you free
|
| And now you want to burn the world
|
| Into the ground
|
| This rage is not your destiny
|
| It’s holding you down
|
| It’s holding you down…
|
| I refuse to believe
|
| That I’m nothing more than a machine
|
| I refuse to believe
|
| That we can’t learn to see
|
| The truth was in a dream
|
| I will not kill
|
| No I will — believe
|
| Believe me when I say
|
| If this could end today
|
| I’d do it, I would
|
| For his crimes
|
| Should his life I take
|
| Does that mean no man or machine
|
| Can learn from his mistakes
|
| No man or machine
|
| Is more than their mistakes
|
| I refuse to believe
|
| That I’m nothing more than a machine
|
| I refuse to believe
|
| That we can’t learn to see
|
| The truth was in a dream
|
| I will not kill
|
| I refuse to believe
|
| That I’m nothing more than a machine
|
| I refuse to believe
|
| That we can’t learn to see
|
| The truth was in a dream
|
| I will not kill
|
| No I will… |
