Reach
I reach for my immortality as my human body dies
my mind alone survives up in the skies
Download my brain from the cloud above
into a clone of youth and health
A body that again use physical love
a mind controlling unlimited wealth
Clone after clone forever I shall live on
only the spiritual soul long forgone
Like changing a suit you change a body
eternal life makes science the new almighty
The common masses expire
there cries grow weary and tired
Only The Few can be us
immortality is a trust
Life is what you make it
mold it and reshape it
Populations explode
a simple virus takes its toll
The planet more precious than human life
The Few entrusted as it's midwife
birthing a new order to live
control all by taking and never give
Not godlike but like god
The Few forever rule all
Everything by our will
do whatever we feel
The universe must be explored
reach for the stars for powers more
The lowly can never understand
we created ourselves the new Adam.
