[Intro]
Go
[Verse 1]
Chromosomes X and Y
Divide and multiply
Constant revolving DNA
Adapting to stimuli
Through vibrations of nuclei
Until humanity dies away
[Pre-Chorus]
So now, break it down
Into the finite compounds
[Chorus]
Who could foresee
When we crawled from the ocean
Those who could stand
Upon these shores?
We evolve
From primate to man
From man to gods
From gods to dust
[Post-Chorus]
To dust
[Guitar Solo: Ryan Glisan]
[Verse 2]
Uncharted growth
Breeds in us new hope
Our phenotypic divergence
Genomes in mutation
Sparks a revelation
Beginnings of a species convergence
[Pre-Chorus]
So now, break it down
Into the finite compounds
[Chorus]
Who could foresee
When we crawled from the ocean
Those who could stand
Upon these shores?
We evolve
From primate to man
From man to gods
From gods to dust
[Guitar Solo: Greg Burgess]
[Bridge]
See this double helix
Rise like a phoenix
From these ashes
Of humanity's flaws
[Guitar Solo: Ryan Glisan]
[Guitar Solo: Ryan Glisan]
[Guitar Solo: Greg Burgess]
[Guitar Solo: Glisan & Burgess]
[Refrain]
Yeah
[Verse 3]
So, if they want to pit us
Against survival of the fittest
To see how we will make it through
To survive with distinction
A species hell-bent on extinction
If only Darwin knew
[Pre-Chorus]
So now, break it down
Into the finite compounds
[Chorus 1]
Who could foresee
When we crawled from the ocean
Those who could stand
Upon these shores?
We evolve
From primate to man
From man to gods
From gods to dust
[Chorus 2]
Who could foresee
When the first cell was split
That the process
Would lead to this?
We evolve
From primate to man
From man to gods
From gods to dust
