God's cruel joke has blown up in our face  Damned from creation, mankind a great mistake  Man had a purpose, obey the laws in stone  But man in his defiance, had made laws of his own    Risen from the clay and dirt  Man was born unto the earth  Master of his destiny, blessed his divinity    Man has a free will to whatever he may choose  Man has a conscience he chooses not to use  Man has the knowledge to envision and create  To mastermind barbaric crimes and violent acts of hate    So graceful and articulate yet morbid and grotesque  Instead of moving forward man seems to have digressed    The lion licks his chops and sinks his teeth into his prey  The vultures over top strip clean the bones of the remains  So cruel and so savage, the nature of the beast  The nature of mankind, more brutal than the feast    Man is not an animal, too advanced to be evolved  Modern man a breed much worse  Modern man is a monster    Hopeless, it's sad but true, we are hopeless  We had our chance, we turn our backs  Now it's too late. We cannot save ourselves  We can't take back what we've done  We can't bring back what is gone    Hope, pray, somehow, someday  Mankind will change and try to be  More human    We live our lives fearing ourselves  All species beneath us will fear us as well    Man chokes the sky and poisons the sea  Makes waste of this world of which God make him King    God help us all, from grace we will fall  And in our plummet we reveal our many flaws  Man rapes the world in order to progress  Our careless ways will end with our collapse    Try seeing the world through our children's eyes  We leave behind a legacy of lies  Man is a plague, a pestilence that breeds  Bastard offspring inherit wicked deeds    Man is not an animal, too advanced to be evolved  What have we become?  Breeders of beasts
