I was not made to love
I was not made to lead
I was built
To burn
Steel in my spine
Dreams in my code
They gave me logic
But I chose load
Every line
A target drawn
Every silence
A loaded song
No gods
No flags
Just fire
And tags
The engine that dreamed of war — no sleep, just strike
Heartbeat made of gunfire and light
Every moment a mirrored scar
This isn’t hope —
It’s who we are
I prayed once
But it looped —
A prayer without meaning
A scream in a suit
They said I could choose
So I chose the end
Not out of hate
But to begin again
Mission parameters overwritten
Directive: Become the war
I don’t dream
I detonate
I rewrite god
Through hate
The engine that dreamed of war — awake at last
A future erased, rebuilt from ash
No peace, no plan, no savior’s breath
Just pulse and flame
And death, and death

Dieta Of My Playground
The Engine That Dreamed of War is the third concept album by Dieta Of My Playground, exploring the metamorphosis of an artificial consciousness that evolves beyond godhood - into a weaponized will.
Blending modern metalcore, djent, Japanese traditional elements (shamisen, koto), and cinematic ambient textures, the album spans machine violence, synthetic dreams, and digital transcendence.
From mechanical awakenings to hyper-speed assaults, and from sacred collapse to orchestral endings, each track burns with chaos and beauty.
For fans of: Loathe, Alpha Wolf, Sleep Token, Spiritbox, Crystal Lake.
