The Genesis explosion: Creator of expanding space Compressed matter with the power to detonate An infinity of nothing to expand The genesis explosion: Creator of the human race Photons charged with energy Collide for mass creation Immediate annihilation Matter transformation Intense radiation Darkness did not exist Critical point is reached Threshold into night The Genesis explosion: Creation of the Universe Now gravitation begins its task As the architectural force Atoms seek out gravity And heads towards its source The atom's source becomes a seed Of growing concentration Formation of the galaxies And their first generation.

Heliosphere 02:46
Deep in the metropolis of light A powerful star nears the end of it's term Choking on waste at its core Consumption increased with no fuel to burn Energy production is ceased Gravity takeover Core implosion Deep in the cloud of its remains A protostar forms from collected debris Nuclear fusion takes place The birth of the sun in its primary phase In the aftermath of the suns creation Its children are born Each child evolving from its gathered matter To a spherical form Only one planet in the solar system Will receive the gift of life The planet must be perfect for life to exist It's fragile and precise There is only one planet with an atmosphere To support life between fire and ice.

Primordium 03:39
Mountains touch the sky The winds intensify Rock is turned to sand The sea torments the land Lightning hits the earth A momentary column of fire A thunderous roar As the molecules begin to ignite Breaking up the atoms by electrical shock Molecular prosperity Fragments recombine in a molecular lock Solar radiation helps to break them again Molecular fertility Increasing their complexity so life can begin Rise from the sea Four billion years of evolution Changing life on Earth Building better organisms Elimination of the weak Proliferation of the strong Insemination of the planet.

Rise of Man 04:47
What is man? Where did he come from to rule this planet earth? Who crowned him king of his celestial throne? An honour sanctioned at birth The story of man is one of great success A creature evolved to survive From the simplest of organisms he was born A complex and powerful mind will arise Earthly gifts of wood and stone Provide the tools for fire and bone Harness fire for warmth and light To cook their meat and warm their night Civilization of mankind Superior intelligence Now sets them from the rest Superior intelligence Establishing his dominance Once man's preoccupation With survival had diminished He could concentrate on destroying What four billion years or chance had created... Himself.

Estuary 03:09
Fertile river valleys Cut through the burning desert sands Men gather into cities On the path that these sacred rivers ran Together man and water Cultivate their still born lands From the river's source Flows the water of the high grounds Water gathers force Increasing volume and momentum Like men they amass Carving life into the sand dunes Rivers meet the sea Human population grew Someone has to organize this Growing savage tribe Men to run the cities With plans that they've devised Builder of the walls Maker of the laws Leader of the wars Back inside his guarded palace Ruler over all
7.
Humanity is but a child Looking for someone to teach him Someone to explain the things in life that mystify him The stars are really gods in the sky The sun is a chariot of fire You must believe and not ask why Humanity is but a child Looking for someone to lead him Someone to protect his sacred lands that bathe and feed him The land you're on is really the king's The wars you fight are really for him Loud you'd better sing Long live the king Gods and kings Both were illogically formed Misguided intentions and a hunger for power Information misinformed
8.
Empires of power and wealth Expanding their boundaries A phalanx of greed and ambition Conquering the weaker of nations War is their key to expansion Millions of innocent die Swords are swung and arrows fly Weapons of stone and steel Swinging like pendulums Killing men with each pass Time will tell what we'll become The bloody star high in the night sky A symbol of man's need to fight Fear and terror revolve around the crimson source of light Fear and terror revolve around the bloody orb of war Through the centuries Man learns more efficient ways to kill He's better at destroying Entire cities at will Through technology man can now annihilate everything on earth A grenade in the hands of a child That's been violent since birth
9.
Threshold 03:20
Energies directed to war No safe place anymore Hypnotized by mutual distrust Ashes to dust The global balance of terror Holds hostage the people of earth We must take Control of our fate Before it's too late We must educate the world We need change A fundamental redesign Citizens All the people of earth Understand what must be done Contemplate major changes Unify - Our nations one Citizens All the people of earth Unify - Our nations one
10.
Boundaries just a memory Mankind found peace in unity Man has come to see He's his own worst enemy Now he's come of age It's time to leave his earthly cage There's so much out there to see A universe of infinity To the stars Prosperity The galaxies Our legacy The universe Infinity
