I Refuse (To Believe)

Father you once told me
 You had a dream
 You would build a better world
 You gave us the machine
 Betrayal, mistakes
 Have made you lose faith
 But you've come too far to turn around
 There's too much at stake
 You need to see the Light again
 So open the door
 When I come back we'll start again
 The way it was before
 The way it was before...
 Brother if we walk the program
 Then what system do you serve
 Is your song just lines of code
 Or something that you heard
 And now you want to know
 What you're supposed to be
 Stop pretending you don't have a choice
 Only that can set you free
 And now you want to burn the world
 Into the ground
 This rage is not your destiny
 It's holding you down
 It's holding you down...
 I refuse to believe
 That I'm nothing more than a machine
 I refuse to believe
 That we can't learn to see
 The truth was in a dream
 I will not kill
 No I will – believe.
 Believe me when I say
 If this could end today
 I'd do it, I would
 For his crimes
 Should his life I take
 Does that mean no man or machine
 Can learn from his mistakes
 No man or machine
 Is more than their mistakes
