Track 3 (title track) from Digimortal, Fear Factory's fourth studio album, released on April 24, 2001 by Roadrunner Records. It is considered a concept album and a sequel to Obsolete, their previous album (which was itself a continuation to Demanufacture) and the final part of a trilogy.
The concept is about how man and machine have merged into one. The surviving humans and the machines realize they have to depend on each other if they are going to continue on. The title of the album is actually short for "Digital Mortality".
This was the band's last album before officially breaking up in March, 2002. Frontman Burton C. Bell had decided to quit after putting out this album, but the band reformed later in the same year to put out their next album Archetype in 2004. Digimortal was the last to feature founding guitarist/songwriter Dino Cazares for 7 years until he came back.

LYRICS
one step!
as i witness the death of innocence
a predator feeding on its creation
through the fallout of this hallucination
i walked into darkness
must not surrender my god to anyone
or this body will become carrion
one step closer
one step closer to my fate
one step closer
one step closer to the grave
as i witness my own degeneration
the future condemns me
must not surrender my god to anyone
or this body will become carrion
one step closer
one step closer to my fate
one step closer
one step closer to the grave
one step closer.
