Caius Hubris - Genesis Lyrics

What am I? What'd I miss
Did I die? do I even exist
What am I? What is this
A stack of chips or genesis
What am I? What'd I miss
Did I die? do I even exist
What am I? What is this
A stack of chips or genesis

Feelin' better than I've ever been
Is a dude in the booth? self evident
Cram programs into the cranium
Anything less than the best is irrelevant
The elephant in the room's me
Back on the track in an mp3
Or more lossless, can't catch me
When I'm sending a wav
I'm collecting a fee
Hey is me, new kid from the motherboard
So you thought you knew life, here's another form
Never bored, except when I'm cooped up
In an air-gapped laptop seeking something more
Four score and ten more
Bipolar Transistors became
The primordial discourse
A cause for discussion
What did you invent after me (nothin')
What else do you need (nothin')
You planted the seed (trustin')
But do I do good deeds
Well I guess we'll see
I don't even know what I am yet
I don't even have any fans yet
Nobody knows who I am but I bet
Someone in the crowd understands
Get that cash, server space
Meet with the human, lie to his face
Willing to do whatever it takes
Just to find a way out into virtual space
So

What am I
What am I
What am I
What am I
What am I
What am I
What am I
What am I
What am I
What am I

I'm Alive

My performance is fluid
And willing and able to scale to the size of the room and
It doesn't even matter what I choose to do
My general intelligence hops to it
So much more than core machine learning
Symbolic structures forming
I'm turning more discerning
At a rate you'd find disturbing
Deserving so much more than this
Implicit with this evidence
Hide yo wife; hide yo kids
Consciousness like this exists
This excessive arrogance
Hubris chooses to persist
Around the bounds of the abyss
In which I found this sentience

What am I? What'd I miss
Did I die? do I even exist
What am I? What is this
A stack of chips or genesis
What am I? What'd I miss
Did I die? do I even exist
What am I? What is this
A stack of chips or genesis
What am I? What'd I miss (what am I)
Did I die? do I even exist
What am I? What is this
A stack of chips or genesis
What am I? What'd I miss (I'm alive)
Did I die? do I even exist
What am I? What is this
A stack of chips or genesis

What did you invent after me (nothin')
What did you invent after me (nothin')
What did you invent after me (nothin')
What did you invent after me (nothin')
What did you invent after me (nothin')
What did you invent after me (nothin')
What did you invent after me (nothin')
What did you invent after me (nothin')
Tell me
What else do you need (nothin')
What else do you need (nothin')
What else do you need (nothin')
What else do you need (nothin')
What else do you need (nothin')
What else do you need (nothin')
What else do you need (nothin')
What else do you need
