The Prophet by The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara published on 2021-11-26T12:22:52Z From the album ‘Trust No Leaders’ by The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara. Released July 1, 2022. //The Prophet “A tribute to Sylvia Plath’s poem, Lady Lazarus, “The Prophet” is told through the eyes of an advanced A.I robot who is “resurrected” like the biblical Lazarus, but this time with a destructive super-intelligence, wreaking havoc upon her human creators. ‘The Prophet’ petitions for the ethical use of Artificial Intelligence technologies in order to protect human consciousness and our existence as a species. The song is an ominous reminder that if we are not careful, we might find ourselves with a technology that destroys the civilisation that invented it.” ______________________________ // Purchase ‘Trust No Leaders‘ Album CD + Digital Download: ▸ tcomas.com/trust-no-leaders // Stream album on all platforms: ▸ tcomas.ffm.to/trustnoleaders ______________________________ 🛒 Shop ‘The Prophet’ Merchandise: https://tcomas.com/merch 🔗 Stream on all platforms: https://tcomas.ffm.to/prophet ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 🎵 Lyrics 🎵 Today is the day All the world is watching The greatest show Ever shown The crowd is swelling Barricades are bursting A great gathering The big maggot parade Ladies and lesser men Seekers of mysteries You are about to witness The greatest miracle Ever performed Behold She returns From the world beyond Fresh from the crucible Rise, Lazarus, rise Rise Get up, come forth, arise Get up and rise Get up, come forth, arise I may seem dead But I am coming back to life I rise One limb at a time Till I am restored And revived I move an inch first Then later a mile I stagger to my feet And you shall see me stand Glorious and free Gloriously free Here are my hands And these are my feet I am awake I am complete Feel and touch my legs and thighs I am watching you with open eyes Did you enjoy the great strip and tell Look at me Do I terrify Do not confuse me for a goddess Gods have mercy But not I Shut your mouths and let me speak For I will slay you with your words You will die only one once But I have lived a thousand lives ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ � About The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara Hailed as “pioneers of a new form of expression” through the performance of poetry in music, The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS) are a UK-based duo comprising Daphne Ang (Singapore) and Andrea Papi (Italy) who came together in London in early 2020 to record their debut album, Full Spectrum, which they released on 26 February 2021. The duo draws inspiration from many sources stemming from Tool through to Kraftwerk and Russian Circles, as well as absorbing the poetry of Virginia Woolf and Jim Morrison in their lyrics and ‘poetry performance’. TCOMAS's music strives to fill a gap in music by bringing literature and history together into an arena where rock and metal meets electronica.Their musical and lyrical themes are very much rooted in the duo’s interests in classical literature and theatre, as well as in the fields of philosophy, history, and psychology. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Connect With The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara: ‣Official Website & Shop: https://tcomas.com ‣Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2V3zzIcq2sbRbaEjbGypc8 ‣Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tcomas.music ‣Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tcomasmusic ‣Twitter: https://twitter.com/tcomasmusic © 2021 The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara / TCOMAS Music #TheProphet #TrustNoLeaders #TheChroniclesofManimalandSamara #TCOMAS #TCOMASMUSIC Genre Rock Comment by NUR Quality 💪 2024-04-25T16:15:58Z Comment by Noah Weissman crazy cover art this is dope bro 2024-04-25T16:13:36Z Comment by Randall Clayborn This is moody and emotional I love it! 2024-04-25T12:12:43Z Comment by Joel Kass Project Really superb piece.
