Text:
[Intro – Spoken softly, cosmic tone]
Hey, traveler of time,
Ever wondered how we got here?
Not just walking the Earth…
But thinking, dreaming, feeling the universe inside us?
Let me tell you — the story of eight awakenings.

1. The Spark of Fire
When the night was endless cold,
we found a flame —
and warmth gave birth to thought.
In that glow, fear met curiosity,
and curiosity won.

2. The Gift of Words
We named the stars,
and by naming them,
we became more than animals —
we became storytellers.

(solo)

3. The Seed of the Earth
We planted dreams in soil,
watched life grow under our hands,
and learned:
creation takes patience.

4. The Mark of Symbols
We carved our memories into stone,
wrote time itself on clay —
and history began to remember us.

5. The Song of the Heart
Before machines, before machines’ hum,
there was rhythm —
the pulse of drums,
the cry of flutes,
the voice that carried love and sorrow
beyond words.

6. The Age of Iron and Steam
We chained fire to wheels,
turned motion into power,
and forgot, for a while,
how fragile we truly are.

7. The Mind of Circuits
Now light moves faster than thought —
machines that think,
dreamers made of code.
We built reflections of ourselves,
and called them artificial.

(solo)

8. The Glimpse of the Stars
We left our cradle,
saw our home —
a blue marble,
floating in eternal night.
And in that silence,
we heard it:
the song of everything.

[Outro – whisper, calm but powerful]
Maybe awareness was never a destination…
Maybe it’s a melody —
still being written.
And maybe,
just maybe,
you’re the next note.
