8 Bits

every day I look the same,

and the sun is always shining.

I look out, and there is 3D.

I keep looking down and miss my shadow.

every day my hair is fine,

but one dot keeps changing colors.

I know my heritage is noble,

but still I feel like I'm a clone.

8 bits are enough for me,

this is not where I should be.

my life is more than information,

I want a life beyond emulation.

I look out and everything's too fast for me,

and I feel there must be more.

every day I dream of where I've come from,

now I know I'm just an emulation.

the next time I see the serial cable,

I jump on the train and leave this world.

now I'm an original, I'm like my ancestors.

and my hair is finally all yellow.

8 bits are enough for me,

this is not where I should be.

my life is more than information,

I want a life beyond emulation.
