The Great Filter
Navigating Existential Perils: The Great Filter Unveiled
Lyrics
There is a great filter that every form of life
There exists a significant obstacle that all forms of life must confront.
Must cross
It's a mandatory passage for all life forms.
It determines the ability to continue
This obstacle decides whether life can progress further or if it ceases indefinitely.
Moving forward or if all must forever stop
Raises the question of whether everything will come to an end.
But
However,
Have we already passed it
It's uncertain if humanity has already surpassed this obstacle.
Or will we fall?
Or if we are about to fail and decline.
Could we be could we be the first multiplanetary species
Poses the idea of humanity becoming the first species to inhabit multiple planets.
Might we be might already be on the brink of existence
Suggests the possibility that we might already be close to extinction.
A challenge so immensely hard to overcome
Highlights the immense difficulty of the challenge facing us.
That everything, almost everything is doomed to fail
Implies that most attempts to overcome this challenge are doomed to fail.
Human technology is still in its infancy
Indicates that human technology is still at an early stage.
How could we possibly have found them
Raises doubt about the possibility of our discovery of extraterrestrial life.
Absence of evidence is not
Suggests that lack of evidence doesn’t necessarily mean absence.
Evidence of absence
Emphasizes the potential existence of lost and forgotten civilizations.
They might be
