Cyclops

In Greek mythology and later Roman mythology, the Cyclopes ( sy-KLOH-peez; Greek: Κύκλωπες, Kýklōpes, "Circle-eyes" or "Round-eyes"; singular Cyclops SY-klops; Κύκλωψ, Kýklōps) are giant one-eyed creatures. Three groups of Cyclopes can be distinguished. In Hesiod's Theogony, the Cyclopes are the three brothers Brontes, Steropes, and Arges, who made for Zeus his weapon the thunderbolt. In Homer's Odyssey, they are an uncivilized group of shepherds, the brethren of Polyphemus encountered by Odysseus. Cyclopes were also famous as the builders of the Cyclopean walls of Mycenae and Tiryns.

Washing the brain of the ghost
I've become disenchanted
No, Make the future a past
Fraud! Done with what you admire
Clone, now let the shotguns converse
Sniff that gunpowder you covet
Love, now it's time to give birth
Knowledge is true power
So grow, out of the primate's old skin
Moving like fire
Look down the barrel, this is not a drill
Moving just like fire and steel into your head
Moving like fire
Don't pull the trigger, but fire at will
Moving just like fire and steel into your head
They say we're not alone
From the day you're born
But who am I under this shell
Who have I become
Perfect world Built on top of ruins
The human trait to forgive
The damnation of the weak
Free to invade, penetrate
A reward or punishment?
Who are we
We're ticking bombs in a shell
Look ahead try to understand
Why we die
Oh, They turn your weapons against you
Come in peace
Pray, and all shall be forgiven
No remorse
Play, be a part of the game
Till submission
Move, the final pieces to checkmate
Go
Moving like fire
Look down the barrel, this is not a drill
Moving just like fire and steel into your head
Moving like fire
Don't pull the trigger, but fire at will
Moving just like fire and steel into your head
