[Intro]
"Don’t you think education should make people aware of the danger of the danger of technology instead of making them adapt more easily to any kind of progress and technology?"
"Absolutely, absolutely... That we can no long allow technology to come roaring down at us. I think we must begin to say no to certain kinds of technology, and to begin to control technological change. Because we’ve now reach the point at which the technology is so powerful and is so rapid that it could destroy us, unless we control it"
[Verse 1: ILL BILL]
He was accepted to Harvard at sixteen, child prodigy
Math whiz, specializing in complex analysis geometry
Earned a PhD in mathematics early
Youngest professor ever hired by UC in Berkeley
A short-lived position
He resigned in '69 with no apologies, without an explanation given
Social anxiety multiplied silently
Disconnected entirely from society
Built a cabin, became a survivalist
Rejected electricity and modern scientists
He cooked his dinner in a fire pit
And watched the stars from afar where Orion sits
The wilderness where the lions live
Primitive like the times of the giant pyramids the Mayans built
Then something caused his mind to tilt
A course solidified successfully the very first time he killed
[Chorus: ILL BILL]
What would you do, how far would you go?
If you thought that you can change the world for the greater good, how would you know
What’s right or wrong? Try to play God
Mail a bomb to the CEO of a school or an airline
Do you justify murder for peace?
Do you believe that technology is the beast?
Imagine if your iPhone disappeared, that would be weird
Could you function in a world without technology or would you be scared?
What would you do, how far would you go?
If you thought that you can change the world for the greater good, how would you know
What’s right or wrong? Try to play God
Mail a bomb to the CEO of a school or an airline
Do you justify murder for peace?
Do you believe that technology is the beast?
Imagine if your iPhone disappeared, that would be weird
Could you function in a world without technology or would you be scared?
