Space Ape

I'm a step 
Out of time
me
Part spaceman
Part robot
Practically futuristic
Leaping from
This dusty world
That is past 
Before the future 
Has blinked
Floating through
This bubble life
Oblivious to all
That surrounds
After all
Once we learn to fly
We don't have to worry 
About the rats
Below
Whether they have
Tails or not
As long as they 
Don't have wings
They can't touch us
And that makes us
Safe
Right
That makes us chosen
That means we can
Distance ourselves
From our
Crumbling planet
And the more distance 
We create 
The better
Right
I'm looking forward
To this bright future
Separated from 
Everything
Willfully 
Losing 
My soul
