Ov Soong Lyrics


In another space lies the same face

built with distinct minds

Born as brothers, built as equals

They were made to compliment each other

Now at odds, Their duel is set,

and in their cosmic struggle

One android will fall, the other

must stand

War between brothers

the field deep space

Duty and reason

violence and hate

Golden eyes seek

strange new worlds

Endless potential

A vision to unfold

When the entity from far away

Arrived to feast and burn

and desolate

One survived, the other must wait

Awakening made possible by

secret machinations

And a model through which

Concept is made flesh

or at least

A version of it

began as a fevered dream

lies burning with the possibility

Such a state creates enabling the maker

the father and the creator to see his

dream made real

Brothers of metal

Minds artificial

Quest to attain

the promises made

Brothers of metal

Bodies invincible

rage could replace

the courage of grace

Brothers of metal

Power inexhaustible

Rise Sons ov Soong

Brothers of metal

fate unstable

a ceaseless war

of Datalore

For the elder a path of

peaceful exploration

for the younger a lust for

total devastation

This fact is unknown

to the humble being

whose curiosity

led to the demon’s reactivation

From this act of mercy

came great dismay

when the younger summoned

the crystalline entity

(Solo: K. Losinske)

(Solo: S. Delorey)

(Chorus)

Together they struggled

for some peace of mind

Overwhelmed with emotion

logically blind

Kings of machines

no father to guide

dismantled and rebuilt

Death and life, throughout time

Now both are gone

one revered as heroic

the other a devil a lesson

in brave experimentation

Brothers of metal

Minds artificial

Quest to attain

the promises made

Brothers of metal

Bodies invincible

rage could replace

the courage of grace

Brothers of metal

Power inexhaustible

Rise Sons ov Soong

Brothers of metal

fate unstable

a ceaseless war

of Datalore
