Nature Scorned

Here I am defenceless
Here I am and always have been

Here I am defenceless
But that's only to you, now here with me

Here I am defenceless
The steel beasts you bring along with thee 

Here I am defenceless
But something is waking from deep within the core of me

Here I am defending
You think you have control but you can't control the beast in me

Here I am defending
Your human kind now mean nothing to me

Here I am defender
I am, will be and have been here longer than you will ever be

Hi T. Hope things are well with you. When did you (or your ancestors) arrive on earth?
