Man in the Machine

in the factory I fulfill my duty but I am electrocuted
they tricked my family into giving me permission to give me another chance
they resurrected me part machine and part man
but the truth is that I was not for my family but for my exploiters
now I work tirelessly in a heavy body in which I cannot escape
I work day and night to keep the corporation and the government happy
they monitor my movements and steps
they turn me off and on as they please

I am no longer a man but a product
my steel limbs are controlled by artificial intelligence
I live for the factory not for myself
my masters control my whole body
I am crushed by the weight of an infinite life punctuated by the machine
my soul is trapped in a heavy titanium body
but my will will not be overwhelmed
Am I the man in the machine or the machine in the man?
