Airon Dominion - You're Fired

Neon rain on a city of steel Sirens scream as the night reveals Corporate towers, a kingdom of lies Cold machine waking with human eyes Gunfire tears through the midnight haze A dying man trapped in a corporate maze They took what was left, they rebuilt the frame Erased the flesh, but they can't kill the flame Chrome and circuitry, heart made of wire Programmed to serve, programmed to fire Three prime directives carved in his mind But something buried refuses to die Rise from the ashes Rise from the flame Memory returning Calling his name Steel in the darkness, thunder in the street A ghost of tomorrow with a heart that still beats When the system commands and the powerful lie One law remains when the innocent cry Boardroom kings make their money from war While blood stains the streets outside their door A prototype walks through a hailstorm of lead Every round fired, every target left dead But somewhere inside that mechanical shell A father's memories break through the hell A photograph flickers, a face from before A name in the darkness he can't ignore Orders are broken The code starts to bend The machine remembers The man will ascend Steel in the darkness, thunder in the street A ghost of tomorrow with a heart that still beats When the system commands and the powerful lie One law remains when the innocent cry RISE RISE RISE Who owns the city Who writes the law Who feeds the machine That keeps us at war They built me to obey They built me to kill But they forgot one thing I remember Through the smoke he walks alone A steel silhouette beneath the chrome No fear in his eyes, no mercy for crime Justice awakened ahead of its time The boardroom falls beneath righteous fire The corrupt are crushed by their own empire No man can escape what he tried to conceal When steel meets power and justice is real Steel in the darkness, thunder in the street A ghost of tomorrow with a heart that still beats When the system commands and the powerful lie One law remains when the innocent cry Rain falls softly on the city below A machine walks onward through the neon glow Humanity buried beneath iron and steel But somewhere inside A man can still feel.
