Engine Left Unclaimed

I woke up with the city humming under the floor Elevator going

up but nobody pressed four Blue light through the blinds,

little buzz in the wall Everybody got connected,

nobody makes a call Man on the screen selling peace by the

month Kid in the mirror learning faces he can front Truth got

a price, lies got overnight shipping Whole world's talking Nobody fucking listening

I watched a machine learn a man in a minute Watched the

man spend twenty years putting nothing in it Now everybody asking where

the old world went Brother,

we were standing in it while the motherfucker left

Something's moving underneath us

Nobody knows who's driving

But God left the engine running

And everybody climbed inside it

GOD LEFT THE ENGINE RUNNING

Hear that motherfucker hum

Nobody knows where we're going

But everybody wants the front

God left the engine running

Dashboard glowing blood-red bright

If we're headed somewhere beautiful WHY'S IT LOOK SO GOOD AT NIGHT?

Got prophets selling futures,

got thieves selling past Everybody building something engineered not to last Got

a pocket full of answers and a head full of doubt Built

a door into everything Can't figure how to get out

We made gods out of numbers,

made numbers out of men Made a copy of the copy,

then we copied it again

Now the mirror's making mirrors and they're staring back at us

Tell me who's the fucking passenger when the passenger builds the bus?

Maybe nobody lost control

Maybe control was something

we invented afterward

to make the ride less terrifying

GOD LEFT THE ENGINE RUNNING Now the fucking brakes are gone We

keep arguing who's driving WHILE THE ROAD KEEPS MOVING ON God left

the engine running Maybe that's the whole design Give a fool enough

tomorrow SEE WHAT HE DOES WITH TIME

Oh... there it is
