LBTT May: Student vs Shodan [Shodan wins 3-2]

[Shodan]

The headless creature quickly attacked, lifting a bat
Swinging it fast, one more minute he'd be killing the man
Left brain said the victim completely deserved it
Right brain responded that the reason was bullshit
Engineers build. I kill. It's our rallying mantra
Chanting it all when we hope to actually stop this

The general public thinks we're mindless brutes
They ought to start finding truth, we just fight the new
Because this technological age leaves our lives abused

Scientists love playing God, what they don't see is how they are wrong
The whole idea walks into Satan's arms
If you give them an aura of humanity, I guess it ain't your fault when they take it off?
In our creation they raped us all...

Now, was this payback truly proper?
I guess you can call it... Just to be brut'ly honest
As I killed the researcher I almost made a move to stop it
But the damage was done. The metaphor's complete
By authorizing cloning they let him torture me
Humans think they're greater... truth is
They're inferior to their own products and can't change the future
