A life of determinism
Is a life without choice
It’s a life of illusionism
That coerces your voice
Free will is taken
From beginning to end
Which leaves us forsaken
From our natural dividends
So is life under mutiny?
In our forthcoming upshots
If fate renders our destiny
To create us as robots
Thus If life’s uncontrived
Then we’ll marry a male wife
As we’re born and deprived
Of being truly alive.
