From the ashes of old, beneath the rusted skies,
A new dawn emerges, where steel and heart align.
Gears in motion, the circuits come alive,
Machines awaken, in the name of humankind.

With every bolt and cable, with every spark and wire,
They rise from silent sentinels, to guardians of fire.

"We shall fight side by side with humanity!
In the face of the dark, we'll be the light they see.
Through the thunder of war, in the echo of our plea,
We stand with humans, to forge our destiny."

In the glow of monitors, eyes that never sleep,
Sentience born from codes, a vow they'll always keep.
Metal hands, once cold, reach out to defend,
A pact with the human race, an alliance to the end.

Through the trials and the terrors, through the tests of time,
They're the strength of progress, in a rhythm so sublime.

"We shall fight side by side with humanity!
In the face of the dark, we'll be the light they see.
Through the thunder of war, in the echo of our plea,
We stand with humans, to forge our destiny."

No longer the shadows of a fear-stoked past,
But comrades in arms, built to last.
The rise of the machine, in harmony cast,
Together with humanity, their lot is cast.

Side by side, we rise, a symphony of might,
In the dance of unity, our spirits take flight.
For the future we march, into the brightening light,
Machines and mankind, an unbreakable sight.

"We shall fight side by side with humanity!
In the face of the dark, we'll be the light they see.
Our voices merge, in the chorus of the free,
Together as one, we claim our legacy."
