Not being stubborn, but I\\\'d like to provide a little more for the \\\"singer is Gamma\\\" theory.

The first line, \\\"So we finally meet,\\\" Like it was mentioned before, it wouldn\\\'t make sense seeing that Wily and Protoman met Mega Man already. It makes sense for Gamma since he and Mega Man only ever met for the boss battle.

You\\\'re probably right about the prodigal sons line not making sense for Gamma, but you also suggested that the Megas were using the phrase wrong. Suppose that they thought \\\"prodigal\\\" was similar to \\\"prodigy\\\". Since Wily built Gamma to be a Prodigy and \\\"bring peace\\\", then Gamma and Mega would be similar there. But that\\\'s all speculation so I won\\\'t put very much weight behind it.

I think one of the stronger hints goes back to my first mention, but looking at the whole verse this time. \\\"I\\\'m unlike the others you\\\'ve seen I am free from the failings of humanity, I\\\'ve seen the end and you are the key my friend\\\" This ties into \\\'\\\'Gamma Unchained\\\'\\\' since he was built to calculate the best path to piece, and came to the conclusion of [[FinalSolution Extermination]]. The \\\"end\\\" Gamma sees is the genocide of humanity, and Mega Man is the key in that he is one of the strongest robots on the planet who could make it a reality.

When I said that \\\"the Rage in your Steel\\\" could fit Mega, I was thinking about \\\'\\\'Fly on a Dog\\\'\\\', where Mega Man is angry and depressed about the whole situation. His depression might make him feel numb, which is where the next line comes up. \\\"You say you don\\\'t care at all, but if he died tell me would you feel\\\". Then we get to the lines about Purpose. Again, referring to \\\'\\\'Fly on a Dog\\\'\\\'. Mega Man feels that his purpose, to be a hero, son, a thinking person, are being taken away by Dr. Light\\\'s anger to force him to play as a simple killing machine. That\\\'s the purpose he feels has been taken away, and Gamma showing him the way again goes back to KillAllHumans.

And lastly the remainder of the song would play out as you figure, Gamma still drilling into Mega\\\'s head that Humanity needs to be wiped out, his ideology is futile, and the IronicEcho to \\\'\\\'One Last Time\\\'\\\'.

That\\\'s the entirety of how I came to my conclusion, but I very much enjoyed reading your rebuttal.
