Technology saved us
From the very beginning
It allowed us to dominate
And more and more create! create!
To compliment our lives
The only reason human beings are kings
technology
Such beautiful creations
And creative innovations
Some people were made for this
And that is beautiful
A form of expression
Brains over wisdom
A form of achievement, a money maker,
Better communication and yet a house breaker
As time goes by and we advance
Our existence might slowly begin to look like
Emotionless servants perpetually entranced
Pulsing through life in a computerized dance
Slaves to the machine; no longer human beings
Simply shiny, metallic things
And what good can this bring?
Will leisure tempt us too much?
Will we survive the test of time?
Or will we just surrender
And do unto ourselves a crime?
Does nobody feel the cold loneliness
Of the metropolitan life?
Societies bestowed with aspects of technological strife
Of the cold, metallic, robotic ways
I can’t see the suns natural rays
That god bestowed on us
Maybe they are shining somewhere else
Upon lovers on a beautiful day
The place where all the love birds flew
Because of the pollution here
All I see is factory smoke eroding metal
Maybe we would have been wiser not to meddle
And alter natures’ ways
Shut into a tiny cell spending time with the pc
Wouldn’t you rather be surrounded by loving family?
Or sleeping by the sea
Without the loud and pollution prone jet-skis
Show me the good
In not being able to knock on wood
Because the trees are gone
Because we now have factories and highways and free ways
Everybody wants everything their way
To make things easier for them
But wouldn’t you rather feel healthy and natural and use some technology
Than be a lonely human blob who can confide only in machines
Submissive to machines always staring at a screen
Alone in your lonely yet overcrowded apartment building
In your little cell of inhabitance
Imagine the opposite:
A natural and righteous world where absolutely every fellow human being had love for you
And technology is used but not abused
Like an illegal substance
That would erase practically all our problems and everything would be so good
Doesn’t this say anything about the real situation?
Why can’t we make more positive creations?
New technology for schools and hospitals instead of militaries and ways for spouses to cheat
What more is there to say?
Technology saved us
It’s a beautiful thing
But let us make sure we don’t over do it
So that it won’t enslave us
The choice is yours
Instead of believing so much in computers
Believe more in Yourself
