Scrilla Vic World Beyond
The World Beyond!
Contact. They came down from the heavens
To assimilate with mankind and be brethrens
Their bodies have the same type features
We’re able to communicate with the creatures
Slick, translucent skin
They can shape shift to make ‘em fit in and treat us like kin
The one distinction between us and them
Is when they bleed blood it ain’t crimson
Some kind of green colored goo that’s noxious
Up ‘til now I’ve always been cautious
I never trusted their alluring ways
Then one day it all just changed
They became aggressive and formed collectives
To enslave us using all forms of deception
I tried to escape but our freedom as humans is gone
Welcome to the world beyond
How’s it gonna turn out? How’s it gonna turn out?
In the world beyond
What you gonna do? What you gonna do?
In the world beyond
All systems go. We’ve got to go.
Before we get swallowed up by a black hole
We saw it coming. We were prepared.
We have the technology to make it outta here
The Milky Way’s moons and planets
Get sucked up as the black hole thrashes
Everything we call home
Luckily, we pinpoint a similar zone for our own
Destination near a distant star
Overlooking galaxies seen from afar
Transcending limits imposed by physics
We travel past light speed for more than an instant
Touchdown at the other side of the galaxy
A new place to make our reality
Build a society from which we were spawned
This is how it is in the world beyond.
How’s it gonna turn out? How’s it gonna turn out?
In the world beyond
What you gonna do? What you gonna do?
In the world beyond
We don’t fear biotechnology.
We embrace it for all it’s grandeur and promises
We can live longer. We can eat healthier
We can cure disease and do as we please
Miracle drugs can fix whatever
Ailment we have and make us feel better
There’s no more malnutrition and poverty
Ills from the past are looked at as oddities
We know the secrets in our DNA strands
As if we understand God’s masterplan!
Scientists are makin’ breakthrough discoveries
If you’re sick, they can speed up recovery
So one day, to their dismay
They accidentally create a malignant strain
That wipes out the planet with a plague and we’re gone
Three hypotheses of the world beyond.
How’s it gonna turn out? How’s it gonna turn out?
In the world beyond
What you gonna do? What you gonna do?
In the world beyond
What does the future hold in the world beyond?
