Age of the Apes explores the tragic trajectory of humanity — from primal origins to self-inflicted destruction. It is a stark reflection on evolution not as progress, but as an unending cycle of violence, power, and decay. This album questions the myth of “survival of the fittest” and unmasks it as a ruthless ideology that justifies cruelty and dominance.

From the first upright step of the ape to the devastating consequences of war, technology, and greed, it holds a mirror to our collective psyche and societal failures. It reveals the paradox of human intellect and brutality — how the crown of civilization is often forged with the blood of the weak.

Drawing on the shadows of history and the whispers of nature’s wrath, Age of the Apes warns: evolution without empathy is a path to inevitable collapse.

“Man is the cruelest animal.” — Friedrich Nietzsche
“The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.” — Stephen Hawking
“We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in — standing still inside.” — Charlie Chaplin

This is an urgent call to confront who we truly are before the last chapter closes.

Age of the Apes

The world I knew is gone for good
Eyes once burned — we understood
Now blue light on every face
Trading touch for endless chase

They say “no time.” We comply.
Hours bleed while pages fly.
Wide-awake yet walking blind,
Warm little cage… then it grinds.

Look me in the eye (don’t blink)
Tell me we’re alive — not synced.

Why the hell did we let it die? (wake up)
The fire, the fight, the love inside (stand up)
Devil dressed in wire and light,
Feeding on the human bite.
Are we too far gone to feel again?
Too far gone to even pretend?

I’ve seen marks in circuit shine,
Cameras track the body line.
Nature stands — we hollow out,
Living small in louder doubt.

I want you without the glass,
Truth unmasked, no filter pass.
Reach for you and feel you fade —
Terrified we’ll lose what made.

We were built to blaze and breathe —
Not to kneel beneath a feed.

Why the hell did we let it die? (wake up)
The fire, the fight, the love inside (stand up)
Devil dressed in wire and light,
Feeding on the human bite.
Are we too far gone to feel again?
Too far gone to even pretend?

Rip it out — tear it down.
Burn the code — scorch the crown.
Run for trees — skin and bone.
Hold your ground — make it home.

(Help!) before the lights go dark.
(Help!) before they brand our hearts.
(Help!) before we’re names on file.
(Help!) before we lose the wild.

Why the hell did we let it die? (wake up)
The fire, the fight, the love inside (rise up)
Cut the wires, break the lie,
Meet me where our eyes catch fire.
Not too far gone to feel again —
Breathe like we remember then.

Look at me…
Before we’re ghosts behind a screen.
