Chronicles of Progress and Change

Steam and steel, enlightenment minds. Newton's laws, telescope's time. Voltaire writes,

Rousseau shouts. Revolution breaks the crown. Watt's engine power turns,

Franklin fires, the lightning burns. Linnaeus names the living tree. Comte debates what

minds can be. Montag, Bach, the Hartford declaration.

Freedom roars, Cook sails into southern skies. Bastille falls, empires die.

Time keeps ticking, can't rewind it. Forward motion, can't confine it. Wheel keeps turning,

minds keep burning. We are the spark, the world keeps learning.

Past to present, futures calling. Stand up strong, the sky is falling.
