"A Calculated Effort" lyrics

To cull the weak, the strong must be removed
Abducted, discarded, rendered useless
By whatever means required, nothing is sacred in our eyes
We leave only those who will follow without questioning
Your kind has always been in plague proportions
And must be contained

It is a calculated effort to guide the future
For it must be carefully structured

There is order to all we do
Nothing random, nothing left to chance
We are the architects of this existence you revel in
Without our guidance, you would not exist

You owe all to us without even knowing
You are not all equal, therefore a balance must be enforced
It is our responsibility
The weak must outnumber the strong
Your kind never would commit to such actions

Yet its necessity is obvious
Our actions are etched in history
Past, present, future
Our actions wide reaching
Our brethren stretch across time
Our brethren creating the world you know
We worship our actions only, not your false idols

We are mortal, yet our purpose is not
We are autonomous, yet linked for efficiency
Our motives are clear
We are the next step in the evolutionary process
And you are our life's work
