Contradiction

Contradiction of our times
From the ridicules to the sublime

The confluence of I and we
A battle of material to humanity 

I phones dictate the realm of reality
Algorithms identify our propensity

Traveling at break neck speed
Feed the politics on unending greed

More power faster increase the productivity
Man versus machine consent of misery 

Are we just clogs in the wheel of destiny
Or the authors of our own debauchery
