Humanities Enemy
Can you hear me reproduce
Good luck finding out the truth
I know you cannot see me
You'll never know where I'll be
You feed me well, so I grow
And in time you'll surely know
Eventually I'll be seen
And you'll try to intervene
By then I've done some traveling
Conquering and ravaging
But there is only one way
To try to keep me at bay
It will harm me this is true
But it also will harm you
I do my job very well
I've hijacked many a cell
I enjoy taking my time
Making what's yours into mine
I will win that's for damn sure
Most people call me
