A Future We'll Never Know (original song lyrics)

Look up above and tell me what you see,
Flying cars, hover trains, space shuttle travel,
Where the transport of four wheeled drive and rails are history,
Gone are those days, gone are the tree's,
Artificial intelligence, holographic honey bee's, mankind's past is said to never unravel,

It's still all about war war war,
Making money from the poor poor poor,
What more can man ask for?,
Is this really our future?,
Is this the way we wanted it to go?,
So much for the world, in a future we'll never know.

Look to the sky and see the stars reflect into an android's eyes,
Anarchy no longer in play, chaos has been purged and wiped from the Earth,
Swipe the screen to the left and to the right,
Read up and recap the events of the modern era, 
But remember to subscribe to be notified,

We're all becoming chimera, 
When it's all about war war war,
And when they're taking money from the poor poor poor, 
What more can we do?,
When our grandfathers ask us, "where's the flying cars?" 
And we have to pause and take look around ourselves to see,

Garbage, death, blood, graffiti, burnt forestry,
Is this the way we want it to be? 
Is this how it should go?
So much for the world, in a future we'll never know. 

It's a future we'll never know,
Robots, lazers, flying machines, computer chips in our brains,
Do we really want to be more machine than man?,
Is this truly our race's master plan,
We'll be stronger but more unstable as we reign, 
Up on top of the food chain,
Is this how it should go?,
In a future we'll never know,

Do you want to go, to a future we'll never know?,
Because this is how it'll go, in a future we'll never know,
So much for the world, in a future we'll never know,

In a future we'll never know,
In a future, 
A future,
We'll never know.

I was pondering to myself about the fact this to many is not the future people imagined and that in the future what if it's one i won't know? It's something else i guess where i left my thoughts bleed out as ever when i write anything i guess but when it comes to lyrics it goes 50/50 sometimes i can hear the music that accompanies the lyrics and sometimes i cannot it's quite something i cant fathom at times.
