trials in this life whether calm or disaster
sadness and the laughter beginning through the after

{farewell}
she said, as the car drove away
tail lights vanished in the glow of the day
coping with the change all alone in their estate
sent their daughter off to college now they're so old and gray
don't know what to do with this time they've been given
started a foundation technology for children
they want to change the world, make it better, make it different
{farewell}
on the run like he's super slick
a fugitive who knew the tricks removing every clue they skip
moving quick, hoping they don't shoot him with
a lie tranquilized that they get him to maneuver in
started with his knowledge and a proof to make it lucrative
prison's not a future for an innocent computer whiz
bounced underground, finally made it out the sewers then
{farewell}
farewell if you ever ask why
farewell, tell if you never say die
farewell, please let me see you put your fist up
always fair well when determined not to give up
farewell now i gotta make them proud
farewell, out when i'm waving to the crowd
farewell let me hear you say it now
{farewell}
conversation stops when their moniker is mentioned
an undetected presence on the internet they leverage
so much potential they change it to kinetic
connected, relentless, no interest in a penance
they're just, bent on a method for their vengeance
prevalent with messages, know how to make an entrance
identities unknown, these citations need a reference
bet you'll get it with this very next sentence
not forgiven not forgotten but they're certainly expected
{farewell}
factor mathematics then it's all a game of averages
coding, overflowing, still invoking what their passion is
get a hacker kid and match him with an activist
pad it with an additive for automatic catalyst
the fact that it exists isn't actually the saddest bit
scale across the planet understanding what the fraction is
instantly mobilized and suited up for battle quick
{farewell}

control's coming loose, cause and effect
know when to choose, pause let it set
show me the proof, call for the best
moment of truth, go again

he's the leader of these vagrants
no debate, bringing faith to the faithless
federal agents, mad 'cause they're flagrant
but they hacked all the taps that were placed in the basement
delivering a way to save the internet they're faced with
and an atmospheric network they're launching with a s***eship
funded with the money they stole from a foundation
{farewell}
not what he meant from his steady trend of envious
foundation's bankrupt, the couple died penniless
the darkest of surprise, see the startle in their eyes
the project that they started was the heart of their demise
now they lay in a coffin made of rotted wood
so altruistic, they meant to do a lot of good
the world did change, but not how they thought it would
