So. Contrary for what this other due said about people tapping into a matrix type of situation this is more about human "upgrading" them selves and becoming more a machine than human. Becoming immortal while becoming more of a machine and losing "that boy you used to know". Basically becoming a cyborg and starting to be better than other mortals thus becoming god among them. But the further he "upgrades" the less human he becomes. almost like the movie Transcendence from 2014 which is not far fetch that this might have been an inspiration for this song because that's when A7x were prolly planing and writing new songs for the new album. Also with a quick googling I found out that "Paradigm shift" refers as a scientific revolution in some context and in the song it states "Final Paradigm" thus refereeing that the transformation going on in the song or the "events" is the final revolutionizing thing in scientific realm. This might be human merging with AI or just AI gaining and upgrading it self and becoming ever more intelligent with no stopping. Also to me there are other song on this album that actually feel more like Matrix scenario than this song. Like Simulation like the name suggest (then again that feels a bit Westworldy as well, in liek its a simulation for the machines/Ai to keep them in check so they wont revolt against human overlords). |
