Replicant from Cascadence by Arcaeon
The futile repetition of life. A dark view of humanity existing only to reproduce and then die in a futile cycle without meaning, worth or value. The sample towards the end of the track featuring a woman’s voice is taken from a game called ‘System Shock’ and serves to further this message. It’s a warning about the rise of artificial intelligence and new superior forms of technologically advanced life who could eventually replace us on Earth.

Lyrics
Welcome to the hell of existence
Ripped from your mother drenched in birth bound in defile
Suffer in the vile and malignant
You’re nothing more than a repeat of recurring occurrences
Shrouded in a veil of cloud
The creator of a new imperfect God
Manifest with incest and interconnected cybernetics
Procreate to delete
I delete
You don’t see
You are living with a pre set length of expiry
You don’t feel
You are artificially made individuality
Got no emotions
Just one more duplicate version
Another carbon reaction
Reflection of your maker masquerading as human
Conceived to repulse me so sickening the weight of the world bestowed upon the
Vermin without a purpose or even a fleeting virtue you spread like a virus
And when it's laid out bare you exist to just be and that’s it
At the edge of the universe with your head in your hands surrounded by nothingness
No soul to speak of
Empty and hollow
Sullen then old
Lurk in the shadows
We breed spawned in a world of deceit and complicity
Wondering in fallacy poisoning our entities
Population multiplication insidious
So entirely contemptuous
Humanity turned to dust
Your life is ending
Vanish from the surface
Erase you from this planet
Your light extinguished
