evolution
Viper Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The big desert is far from here
Scarlet clouds in the atmosphere
Built by hands of a million men
Darkest silence of a dead land.

Every night I say a pray
Asking god to see you again
I will bring you back home
Dead or alive, I don't know.

A million dollars cross the sky
Invisible plane a brand new kind
A million people cross the sands
Following the hunger guide.

I hear the siren in sector one
A new rebellion get your guns
Hold your breath if they are close
They take hostages to get drugs

Miles I'm walking seeing the hand of men
Destroying the land.

Is the future on my side?

Evolution
Self destruction

Space battles in the fifth war
Science fiction is for real
Happiness we never feel it
We only see it on the movie's screen.

Human being have a killer instinct
Though we came from the same womb
How can men celebrate
Everytime we drop a bomb?

Evolution
Self destruction
Disease and fear
I walk every night to see the end
To see the end by our side.

Very soon we'll be trapped in our own trap
Our private hell.
When there's nothing left to destroy
Will we destroy ourselves?
Yes!

Miles I'm marching seeing the hand of men
Destroying the land

Evolution
Self destruction
Evolution
No solution
Disease and fear
I walk every night to see the end




Come see the end
By my side.

Overall Meaning

In Viper's song "Evolution," the lyrics explore the themes of self-destruction, human instinct, rebellion, and the consequences of advancement in technology. The opening lines set a desolate scene, with reference to a big desert and a dead land. The chorus of the song emphasizes the contrast between the human race's evolution and the inherent self-destructive behavior that comes with it. The lyrics question the necessity of human advancement and suggest that it may eventually lead to the destruction of humanity itself.


There are also references to a rebellion and hostages being taken for drugs, which alludes to social issues such as drug addiction and control issues. The lines, "Human beings have a killer instinct, though we came from the same womb," suggest a deep sense of irony in humanity's behavior towards each other. Despite the fact that they all come from the same origin, humans are constantly at odds with each other, indulging in their aggressive tendencies and resorting to violence.


In the second half of the song, the lyrics delve into science fiction and the potential consequences of space battles. The imagery suggests that humanity's obsession with science fiction lacks in real-world fulfillment, as solutions to mortality and happiness remain elusive. The song ends on a bleak note, with the singer questioning whether we will ever overcome our self-destructive tendencies.

MY HEART, RIP. It makes me so sad to see it say, "1992-*2017*" instead of "1992-present"
If there's an alternate universe where it still in production, I need to go there!

One of the most underrated cars in history. It must've just been bad timing when they brought it back in 2013. The world wasnt ready for it yet, especially since the C7 corvette was new at the time and less expensive off the lot. With cars like the Performante, ZR1 (and possibly the mid engine corvette on the rise), Ford GT, Dodge Demon/Hellcat and more, the Viper and Viper ACR would've fit in perfectly in todays market. Sad to see it go, and hoping for an epic return in the near future! Dream car for sure.
