Ray Kurzweil Wants To Live Forever

by MattG

Take your vitamins Ray All 150 that you take each day That seems a bit excessive to me A series of bridges: Bridge one he says is to Stay as healthy as possible With diet and exercise And current medicine Bridge two: Is the biotechnology revolution, where we can reprogram Biology away from disease Bridge three: Is to go beyond biology, To the nanotechnology revolution At that point he says nanobots can be injected Into our bodies They would augment our immune system Now those nanobots could be helpful To help prevent disease But as far as allowing us to live forever Sorry, it's not going to happen We all age and die Ray It's part of being a human being You will not live forever Ray And what kind of person would want to anyway? So strange How man feels like he must fight a natural process Life will take its course We all must return to the source of life After we have lived
