So a little while back, I asked zahqo if he wanted to work together on a project, and this was the result! I can never run out of great things to say about this guy -- a true class act, and talented as hell.

This song was pretty much written by me, and pretty much produced by him. Oh, did I mention he did the artwork for this too?

The lyrics are conceptually -loosely- based on the idea of the "Conversion Bureau" series of fanfics, but not based explicitly on any one story or idea; it's a very loose, personal adaptation in which we took some liberties with the concept.

... but seriously, send zahqo your love, he's been slaving over this mix for over a week, and lost a bunch of sleep doing the artwork too.

Lyrics:

zahqo:
The end of civilization it draws near
Our population mired in fear
What seemed so easy now seems hard,
forcing us to make a brand new start
The choice is clear now in our minds:
continue or leave this all behind?
Are the risks now greater than the costs?
Abandon flesh to save our cause?

d.notive:
I've found my own salvation
to end human stagnation.
You need no inquisition
to see our disposition.
We're here to save your lives
by freeing all your minds.
With us you'll find new youth
as you trade Hand for Hoof!

d.notive
All of Equestria calls your name!

zahqo:
But things won't be the same.

d.notive
Just surrender all your shame.

zahqo
But I'm not the one to blame!

zahqo
Should I surrender your my form?
Will I accept this as the norm?
To be a pony or a man...
To lend a hoof or lend a hand...

d.notive:
What you lack in your own faith,
we make up in our own way.
Let us convert your body,
to end this selfish plotting!

All of Equestria calls your name!

But things won't be the same.

Just surrender all your shame.

But I'm not the one to blame!

How much longer will you hide?

As long as it takes to decide!

You're so much stronger on our side...

... but without you I'll still survive!
