# THE PEAK OF THE SPECIES
*KaNe | English Adaptation*
[Intro - spoken, sarcastic]
HA HA HA HA
Ladies and gentlemen…
The peak of the species!
[Verse 1]
A crown of ring lights, a throne that folds away.
She posts the same old dance she posted yesterday.
When likes begin to fall, more skin goes on display.
[BREAK]
I hit the heart by accident, I swear.
I type "How shameful!" like I really care.
I keep the window open. Still got time to stare.
[Chorus]
THE PEAK OF THE SPECIES!
DIGITAL FLESH!
A QUEEN ON EVERY SCREEN,
A VASSAL ON THE WEB!
THE FUTURE'S UP FOR SALE!
SUBSCRIBE AND SEAL THE DEAL!
THE CROWN IS JUST A LIE!
THE SERVITUDE IS REAL!
[Verse 2]
Porn on demand. Affection sold in tokens.
"My king," she whispers. Now I'm feeling chosen.
[BREAK]
I'm king of every charge upon my bill,
Lord of a bargain kingdom that isn't reaaaal.
[BREAK]
She calls me "the only one." How sweet, how rare.
Fifty other kings are getting the same care.
[Breakdown - POWERFUL]
THE FINAL JUDGMENT
WILL STREAM IN PORTRAIT MODE!
TEN MORE TOKENS
TO UNLOCK THE SHOW!
[Short Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
It sickens me to see the youth for sale.
What a glorious future! What a fairy tale!
They say they're gonna change the world someday;
For now, they change the lighting on display.
I demand some dignity with righteous indignatiooooon,
[BREAK]
Then I click the button: "Renew Subscription."
[Chorus]
THE PEAK OF THE SPECIES!
DIGITAL FLESH!
A QUEEN ON EVERY SCREEN,
A VASSAL ON THE WEB!
THE FUTURE'S UP FOR SALE!
SUBSCRIBE AND SEAL THE DEAL!
THE CROWN IS JUST A LIE!
THE SERVITUDE IS REAL!
[Chorus - POWERFUL]
THE PEAK OF THE SPECIES!
DIGITAL FLESH!
A QUEEN ON EVERY SCREEN,
A VASSAL ON THE WEB!
THE FUTURE'S UP FOR SALE!
SUBSCRIBE AND SEAL THE DEAL!
THE CROWN IS JUST A LIE!
THE SERVITUDE IS REAL!
[Outro - Guitar Solo]
