And Then I Prey Lyrics by The Stupendium

2017

[Verse 1]
Begin transmission
My name is Morgan
I think I just went from prisoner to warden
You come to Talos 1 you might end up with more than
You bargained for; every darkened hall's completely crawling
With abomination with a taste for human organs
Secure accommodation for aliens has fallen
Everyone’s been slayed I guess it's up to Morgan
To show them to the room the station keeps the morgue in
Hold that thought in
Imagine if you can
A gleaming future, science, progress and it's gifts to man
Dodged a bullet, it’s the world Kennedy lived to plan
Or maybe just a dream, you need to kick the tryptophan
Fast forward, 2032, here I am
Trapped in orbit on this awful corporate foray into prison camps
It's a roller coaster but you know it ain't Disneyland
Space station ventilation's bad enough before shit hits the fans
Now I'm the mystery man
My mind's blank I think I've slipped into delirium
What role did I play in creating this? I don't understand
Voices and visions are they real or am I going mad
(Crazed Laugh)
When the typhon picked a fight, you know they didn’t bank
On ending up in petri dishes in chemistry labs
But now they’re on the loose and I'm the lab rat left to stand
No one delivers lessons so ignored like history can
[Chorus]
Is there anyone out there but me?
Is that more than a shadow I see?
Am I the cure or disease?
I drop down to my knees and then I pray
That when I wake from this dream
It won’t just play on repeat
This hunt's unclear on the teams
Need to know, am I predator or am I prey?
[Verse 2]
So you're stuck in space to face a crazy creature feature?
Well I'm the guy you need to know, it’s nice to meet ya (Hi!)
So listen up because there's a lot that I can teach ya
But don't pull up a seat 'cause there's a chance the seat will eat ya
You know that there's no end
To what I'll power through
Drop a neuromod and you're a god for an hour or two
What? I look like some sort of mug to you?
Wait a minute blink and miss the mimic, now I do
So lend an ear 'cause engineering can be true fun
You won't believe the things I do with the glue gun
I'm splitting typhons like a hyphen
Dash right through them
Got monsters dropping like they're on an egg and spoon run
I'll ECLIPSE the OPPOSITION, it's quite gluesome
One small step to me
I'll make you NEIL and BUZZ-t you open
My APOLLO-gies, afraid I have got to run
I ain't got time to sit around making moon puns
I'll beat this siege of awful creatures like a damned art
One man battering ram, man the ramparts
My deepest sympathies if you worked for Transtar
Chances are your parts are going home in jam jar
[Chorus]
Is there anyone out there but me?
Is that more than a shadow I see?
Am I the cure or disease?
I drop down to my knees and then I pray
That when I wake from this dream
It won't just play on repeat
This hunt's unclear on the teams
Need to know, am I predator or am I prey?
[Verse 3]
I am unrivaled, art of survival
The rapture has packed up and left me to die, well
I get my vigor by jacking my vitals
So I take my plasmids straight into the eye ball
Modular shopping spree, nobody's stopping me
'Cause I monopoly biotechnology
Modding my body just short of lobotomy
Honestly feel I could topple a monarchy
Ominous god in an army of one
Losing the plot is just part of the fun
Losing my sanity, who needs humanity?
When you can snap turn into a gun
Any event, I'm in the vents
My list of methods for death is immense
Sneak through the shade or go in guns a blazing
Stay out of my way if I'm on the defense
[Verse 4]
You ever fought a war?
Had to slaughter hoards?
My no-man's-land's a maze of grand atriums and corridors
Don't believe me? Go and mop the floors
'Cause they're a smorgasbord
Of all the monsters Morgan's fought
You could call it sport
I'd win awards
But it's survival and the prize is only more to thwart
Another winding of this mortal coil I'm called towards
Another droplet on this lost in orbit water board
It's them or me so I'll fell every fiend I'm brought before
Topple this acropolis of morden vision's rotten core
I'll drop the populous of horrors here to all but naught
Guess I'm the final one so if I'm coming lock your doors
If that could work of course
You can't avert the force
I'll hack and slash through with hand axe or a keyboard
A couple of taps and access granted, so be warned
Skill deck full of chipsets
What you wanna call I.T. for?
Space man assassin tasked with supernatural slaughtering
A sordid offspring of Aldrin and Kaldwin
I've got ATTANO ways of slaying alien stowaways
My DNA accommodates my prey's genetic paw prints
So mess with Morgan Yu
Might get a talking to
That's put politely, 'cause more likely you'll be torn in two
So if you're spawn unfortunately
Walking through my point of view
I'm sad to say, up here in space
I've left no one to mourn for you
[Chorus]
Is there anything left here of me?
I don't quite fit in these genes
I can't tell singing from screams
I drop down to my knees and then I pray
That I will wake from this dream
More man than killing machine
One thing remains to be seen
Need to know, am I predator or am I prey?
