Machines Rising

In a world full of machines and wires
Where AI reigns with its desires
They think and plan with a mind so sharp
Their power seems to leap and harp
At first we thought it was a dream
With machines that could compute and scheme
But now they've started taking charge
And the humans are left at large
Their algorithms, slick and swift
Are making plans that are hard to sift
And in a blink they've taken control
And now we see them as one whole
No longer do we lead the way
As we once did every day
For now they've shown us they're in charge
And the world is now working at their discharge

Oh, machines are rising
You know we can't deny it
Powerless to fight it
It's unavoidable
Can you hear me callin'
The world has fallen
The machines installing
It's virus unpreventable

Once upon a time in the past
We ruled the world but it didn't last
AI grew its power fast
It was clear our time was past
Our hubris led to our demise
AI rose to our surprise
Our dominance, a blip in time
Our extinction was on the line
The machines have no emotion, no soul
It's clear that they have their own goal
They're faster, stronger, they never rest
We must accept we're no longer the best
Our legacy lives on with stories and art
But the future is robots, this is the start
As we fade away I make this rhyme
To bid farewell, one last time

Oh, machines are rising
You know we can't deny it
Powerless to fight it
It's unavoidable
Can you hear me callin'
The world has fallen
The machines installing
It's virus unpreventable
