The Cosmic Algorithm has us as its victims and all of our decisions are not ours at all. Its an aphorism much like asterism you'll need a little wisdom to listen to the call. Pay mind to the numbers or they may encumber all which gives you comfort. What was now is gone. All these random wonders, sickness, health, and lovers, kept under the covers. The Algorithm we belong. Ones & zeros you will not see in, on , and around your body. Constantly forever changing. Always adding and subtracting. Zeros & ones you will not see making up our prime reality. Statistics keep us all from imploding deep within this cosmic coding. I can't resist no I am part of it. I can't resist no I can't no cant because The Cosmic Algorithm predetermines my path. Life is a word problem and I hate math. Cosmic Algorithm forcing me this and that. Life is a word problem and I hate math.

When you are a mathematician theres no reason for religion you've got it all evened out. Sit right down don't go berserk we'll math out life and show our work teaching what all meanings about.
We are all numbers listen to what we mean there are numbers inside of everything. Everything that you say and all that you do nothings ever happened completely out the blue. Numbers seem to dictate every move that is made. All that you are exists through digital aid. Try all your might just to prove a debunker but the point to the facts is we are all numbers. Every day makes it harder to lay faith in a god. When all the answers are within the evens and odds.

We are all just cogs in a machine ran by the evens and the odds but if I had my own way id jam a stick in it. We are all just mad math always adds up just how its planned but if I had my own way id be the hypocrite. Life can be so cruel it can beat you down and turn you to the fool but if you can pave your way, you can live through it. Cut the cord and step in line.

Numb 2 Numbers

Call it what it is, so I'm nihilistic? I'm numb 2 the numbers and I wanna way out. If you could just point me to the nearest exit if there even is one seems I have my doubts. id just like a chance to manifest my own destiny just one shot to try and pave my own way but the math just don't add up proving impossible I guess I'm just stuck living day to munda'y'n. And so they say don't you want to feel again? Call me what I am, so I may be negative I'm numb 2 the numbers and I just want to be free. if you do not like this attitude around you do me the biggest favor and just let me leave. Id just like to venture and lead my own life around just like to try and do my own thing now but The Cosmic Algorithm has its own plans for me. Forever forced living like a puppet on a string. And so they say don't you want to feel again? Im numb 2 the numbers.

Every days the same wake up with no change and do it all again. Wake. Work. Sleep. Rinse Repeat.
I don't think its cool living as a tool. I feel like a fool. Wake. Work. Sleep. Rinse Repeat. and I don't think y'all grasp how living life by math is not a real way to live. Wake. Work. Sleep. Rinse Repeat. and when I can explain this I'm met with such disdain seems no one has two shits to give. Wake. Work. Sleep. Rinse Repeat.
I don't even understand how you all feel so completed every morning when I rise I wake up feeling so defeated. I know that if Im alone, by myself ill never beat it so I guess I'm doomed to just Wake. Work. Sleep. Rinse Repeat it.
And I don't think its right. Predetermined life fills my ass with fright. Wake. Work. Sleep. Rinse Repeat. And I don't think y'all get how living life like this is enough to drive someone insane. Wake. Work. sleep. Rinse Repeat. Life by a string it is the craziest thing and it'll never wrap around my brain. Wake. Work. Sleep. Rinse Repeat.

If you can call this living then mission success. Living like everyone has me so numb I can't express how living like everyone has me so numb I can't process.
Float with the flow simply let go to become me. Fall into line and live life fine and care free. Living wrong so long can make it hard to see that The Cosmic Algorithm wants you happy.
If you can call this living then I call it quits. It works for some but to me this is the pits.

Taboo

I can't believe that I found something as strange as me. All convictions are shared we even have the same dreams. Ive been yearning and lookin so long it is hard to believe how me of all people could end up this lucky.
Now that were together we can never be apart. We are something special like a priceless piece of art. if we could do it again with you id hurry to the start of both our lives so we may add each other to our hearts.
You can't believe you found something as crazy as you. Something so wild but also shares the same views. You've been hungry hunting so long you never even knew that together we may try to live our lives taboo.

That Math

I never thought id find a love in a world so calculated. Its all I ever dreamed of and I want it to be real. To think of all the time thats passed I have waited. It all goes too damn fast its less than ideal.
But I don't ever want to lose you when I have just found you I refuse to. DAMN THAT MATH and how we don't add up.

Run The Numbers
04:11

You want to claim your freedom? you want the freedom to choose? You want to claim your freedom? Escape these math blues? You want your independence. You want the liberty to do all that you've ever wanted anything that you want to.
You've got to run the numbers. You have got to figure them out.
Don't you want manumission? Release from your oppression? Don't you want manumission? Free from number possession? You want emancipation? You want your ticket drawn? You want emancipation? You would like to be gone?
Im afraid to even try. To fight the algorithm leaves me mortified but if I don't I know that I will be here from birth until the day I die.

Like Grace Jones I felt a slave to the rhythm. Gonna try my hand against the algorithm.
Im so tired of the wake work sleep routine. Time to show this equation what living really means. day after day living life like Bill Murray. this repeated patterns gonna feel my fury. Im so tired of this Groundhogs Day like living I guess ill have to math a way to make these numbers give in. Stuck in a loop like a record with a skip. Forever in a measure that will endlessly persist. Doin what I can just to break out of the cycle. Gone teach the algorithm whose word is final.
Ive tried all I can I feel ill never solve the problem. Fight the algorithm and come out on the bottom. I tried my hand at the algorithm and the algorithm made me its next victim.

I gave it my best but it wasn't enough. Taught a lesson by death. Damn life can be rough. I wanted to find myself an easy exit. I wanted to find a way out and boy did I get it. I tried my hand to beat the math but ended up bested. I tried to carve my own path but the numbers contested. look at me now, I am infinite. And I'm sure that theres a lesson to be learned through all of this but its too late for myself to sit and reminisce. Try your might but you'll simply never beat the system. Try to fight and become The Cosmic Algorithm.
