I want to be in the Academy if I get out to explore
With innovative technology that we’ve never seen before.
I want a good ship, I want a good trip, and I don’t want to freeze.
I want to be in the Academy, I don’t care what the cost is!
I want to be with the Creators if I ever end up poor.
I want to show my abilities like I never could before.
I want to deserve to climb to the top and sit there comfortably.
I want to be with the Creators, and forge my own glory!
I want to be an Eudaemon, if I’m rotten to my core.
I want to host every party, every after and before.
I want to be rich, I want to enjoy, I want good ores to wear.
I want to be an Eudaemon, and I do not want to care!
I want to be in the Syndicate if they sent me off to war.
I want strong Ilmari with me, like my grandparents before.
I want a good team and comradery to defend my family.
I want to be in the Syndicate, I don’t care about the fee!
I want to be with the Luminaries, if I can’t endure no more.
I want to see what comes after, don’t care much about before.
I want a new life if I ever melt or freeze or even rust.
I want to be with the Luminaries, but only if I must…
