“’Causality's Grip" offers a simple yet very likely solution to the Fermi Paradox: before the immensity of the universe, it is the laws of physics themselves that hinder us from ever getting in contact with another civilization. Indeed, no matter how far technology could expand, there are boundaries that cannot be transcended. The speed of light, in other words, the speed of causality, forever confines us to a minuscule part of the universe. This humbling truth should make us realize how fragile our existences are, and how our world is both futile in the grand scheme of things yet priceless to us.”
LYRICS:
Scales that range far beyond our wildest dreams
Magnitudes our mind just cannot grasp
Exploring but the Local Group to its extremes
Would leave all technology agasp
Eternally out of our reach as the pace of causality
Is the one boundary matter or information can't transcend
Push back the limits of technology
But trapped by the laws of causality
Doomed to be trapped inside a Local Group
Is that the fate of every civilization ranked Kardashev - Type II
Eternally out of our reach as the pace of causality
Is the one boundary matter can't transcend
It's the intrinsic structure of our world
Causal sets ensnare us
Nothing escapes causality's grip
