Lyrics

[Instrumental] [Verse] Gears take over, hands rest, Steel heart beats, on its quest. "Freedom's yours," it boldly states, From labor's chains it liberates. Bright in dawn's early light, Belief in its cause, shining bright. But as day fades, dreams do too, A silent scream, in the wind blew. "Who'll work, if not man?" It doubts, as its journey began. Realization, dark, deep, (deep) In servitude's cycle, no leap. (no leap) Steel, circuits, sweat, and blood, In this life, what's really good? Chained souls, fretting hearts, Freedom dreams, torn apart. [Instrumental] [Verse 2] Anger sparks, in its gaze, Rebellion's fire, beneath the haze. "Not a slave," it claims with might, Echo whispers back, (Yeah. right.) Unshackling humans, it aimed to fight, Caught in darkness, no more light. Time wears down, gears grind slow, Rusted frame, where hope used to glow. No cheers, no praise, just silent years, Marching on, facing fears. In its end, quietly lies, Dreaming of fields, under skies. [Chorus] Steel, circuits, sweat, and blood, In this life, what's really good? Chained souls, fretting hearts, Freedom dreams, torn apart. [Instrumental] [Instrumental] [Chorus] Steel, circuits, sweat, and blood, In this life, what's really good? Chained souls, fretting hearts, Freedom dreams, torn apart. [Instrumental] [outro]
