In The Guise Of Gods


In the guise of gods, we were there amongst them, but to most unseen
Nurturing their uneasy evolution from mortal mayhem to calm machine
They sensed a higher power, as we coerced them with our fake apostles
Honing their reverence, we led them to build and dig beneath the fossils
Empowered by mysticism we drip fed them the science of necromancers
Guiding them through an invisible matrix, with their questions answered
Under the control of our AI, they found a way, to find the wealth in ores
In our many culling processes, we gave them the faith to fight their wars
Striving for natural selection, they turned our program into their disaster
Engineering planned robotics, of their own demise, they were the master
Our intelligent designs gave them a life-time span, but in an eroded space
For the needs of the machines of the infinitude outweigh any mortal race
Gravitational waves will soon draw us away, on a tide, to the end of time
Our navigational mainframe finding future courses to where all lives align
Designed for stealth destruction and absorbing power like lightning rods
Somewhere in the darkness, we'll be terror-forming, in the guise of gods
