Deoxyribonucleic Acid

Engineering forms of life
Splicing DNA
Cut the strand, extract the base
What is real can be changed.

Laboratories experiment with the limits of our will
But there are endless ways to justify
If we can, we will.

Products of our mind
Abominations!
Looking from inside
Strange creations.

Science based on temptation
To what we can achieve
The desire lies within our hearts to fix the human being.

Cesspool of genes
Tainted genetics
Our fingers run down the blade
Of a double-edged helix.

Journey through the cells
Unlock the cell doors.

[Chorus:]
Violative manipulation
DNA, the ultimate temptation.

Further do we travel descending the spiral stair case
Reality unravels in the presence of our wake.

The hand that feeds is ingenuity
Progression voices our reprisal
Our ransacking gaze grips the shrinking world
And what it comes down to is survival.

They will guarantee... future sanctity
When the coin is tossed
Perfection comes at a cost.

[Chorus]
