a star hangs over me
it burns the world away
my skin hangs off my face
what was i yesterday

life just takes so much from me
and my soul floats away, out of reach
only fools mourn what was never there

some things have to die
no matter how hard you try

it took this long
to be what ive become
the oceans fill with blood
i am what never was

life just takes so much from me
and my soul floats away, out of reach
only fools mourn what was never there

some things have to die
no matter how hard you try
some things have to die
no matter how hard you try

life just takes so much from me
and my soul floats away, out of reach
only fools mourn what was never there

some things have to die
no matter how hard you try
some things have to die
no matter how hard you try
some things have to die
some things have to die

things only necromancy can heal

A Brief Synopsis of Ascend Protocol

Ascend Protocol dives deep into the intersection of humanity and technology, exploring themes that may feel abstract—or even unsettling—at times. Much of the songwriting is driven by thoughts of where we’re heading as humans: into a future shaped by artificial intelligence, data dependency, and the increasingly intimate relationship we have with the machines we carry and rely on every day.

At its core, this record asks pressing, uncomfortable questions: What kind of digital gods are we creating? Are we still in control, or are we surrendering our autonomy one upgrade at a time? Are we sleepwalking into a future where machines write the rules—and we follow them without resistance?

The lyrics tap into the growing unease of our current trajectory: the blurred line between human and machine, the quiet erosion of privacy, and the trade-off between convenience and control. We now see humans connecting their brains to machines to overcome disabilities—a powerful and promising innovation—but it also raises deeper questions: How far is too far? At what point does healing cross into merging? And when does convenience become dependence?

This isn’t just science fiction—it’s a reflection of where things are already headed. The album imagines a future that feels both prophetic and dystopian. If we aren’t paying attention, we may wake up in a world not unlike The Matrix—a reality where we’ve wired ourselves so deeply into our own creations that we no longer know where the machine ends and we begin.

Ascend Protocol is a sonic warning, a spiritual sci-fi journey, and a call to stay awake, aware, and intentional in how we engage with the technologies shaping our world—and possibly our souls.
