Bitcoin’s easy if you try
So simple now - I’ll tell you why
It’s not complex - oh contraire
You can buy it anywhere

Cash App makes it really slick
And others too - just take your pick
Venmo’s fast, try both - compare
You can buy it anywhere

PayPal offers Bitcoin buys
Get some while you order fries
Buy on Coinbase from your chair
You can buy it anywhere

Use Voyager - or Gemini
Buy it low or buy it high
So many options, I declare
You can buy it anywhere

Use Crypto.com, or FTX
Buying bitcoin is better than… a kiss
Do it quietly, or with fanfare
Just buy your bitcoin anywhere

Binance, Celsius, or just use Strike
Buy bitcoin (safely) on your bike
Think for yourself, and stay aware
You can buy bitcoin anywhere

Wallets, users, adopters, memes
Savings, shelters, income streams
Everywhere you look, it seems
Bitcoin keeps on growing

Holders, spenders, miners too
Aficionados, old and new
Look around, it’s in plain view
Bitcoin keeps on growing

Over time, it grows in price
It’s grown 1000x, twice!
So focus now & grab your slice  
Bitcoin keeps on growing

Some buyers public, some anon
Price will soar when most is gone
A pristine asset to lean upon
Your Bitcoin keeps on growing

Let’s all change the world for good
Strike while the iron’s hot - we should
Yes, spend or hold with tools we trust
On Bitcoin’s ledger - free and just

We can help the world connect
We can transfer funds direct
Lightning fast to save or send
To every land this will extend

Across the borders of all nations
Across the seas - no limitations
Free from meddling intervention
“The people first” was the intention

We’re on a mission to every land
This truth deserves a valiant stand
Bitcoin remains secure and strong
Let’s change the world - come along

While I’m living - I want to be blessed
Gonna use the ledger that’s the best
All my days until I die
I’m gonna use the ledger in the sky

I’m gonna use the ledger in the sky
My money’s safer ‘cause I verify
While I’m living - I want to be blessed
I’m gonna use the ledger that’s the best

Prepare yourself - you know it's a must
Gotta use the money you trust
So that you can certify
And trade and sell and HODL
With the ledger in the sky

Oh, trade and sell and HODL with the ledger in the sky
The Bitcoin ledger where the rules apply
All your days until you die
You’re gonna use the ledger in the sky

Use the money that’s open to all
Protect your funds, large or small
All your days until you die
Use the Bitcoin ledger
It’s the ledger in the sky

Oh set me up with the ledger in the sky
My money’s safer ‘cause I verify
While I’m living - I want to be blessed
I’m gonna use the ledger that’s the best
The Bitcoin ledger is the best

A money system that’s built to last
Breeds long-term insights to our views
And money that inflates quite fast
Breeds short-term actions as we choose

A money system stable and sound
Gives us decades to work and build
Nurture each other - nurture the ground
As dreams and lives become fulfilled

Lasting families, lasting goals
Lasting buildings, lasting states
A lasting vision for our souls
Knowing that our wealth awaits

An unsound money kills our dreams
As every system falls apart
Hopes are torn up by the seams
And all are shaken - losing heart

The “fiat standard” rings unsound
Backed by nothing - quite unjust
A better standard we have found
The Bitcoin Standard - we can trust

Rules without rulers - here today
With money coded the Bitcoin way
Transparent - and stronger than gold
Open source - can’t be controlled

Accountable, restrained by code
Issued by work, and not bestowed
Bitcoin does not “favorites” play
No influencer can coding sway

A global money with certain supply
Which rulers can’t change or modify
Bitcoin is neutral - for all - for YOU
A verified record - transparent too

Rules without rulers - come and join
The accurate ledger, the alpha coin
Decentralized, yet governed by rules
One of humanity’s most useful tools

We can walk to the other side
One by one, our minds open wide
A better money - a better way
Walk to the other side today

Walk to the other system now
Feel the freedom it allows
Leave the distorted money scheme
And join the secure Bitcoin stream

When you walk to the other side
Help others cross - as humble guide
Pave the path and improve the way
Use patience in what you do and say

Our money will only stick around
With a money system truly sound
So walk to the other side with me
That we and our children can be free

“Play by the rules”, we learn as youth
So all of us get to play fair
With rules made clear - solid and firm
We can play our best everywhere

But if the rules can change at all
Then most of our efforts are spent
Not on play, but on changing rules
And on who gets to circumvent

If rules can vary, why waste time
On laboring ******* the field?
Just fight to be the rule-changer
For your own advantage and yield

Bitcoin contains the steadfast rules
Immutable, strong, and precise
Nobody gets to change the code
Because they don’t want to play nice

Bitcoin gives the freedom to build
To create and produce and provide
Play by the rules, and live in peace
With our work and wealth verified

Everyone needs safe property
Yet our ownership may end
If we no longer wield the power
To protect and to defend

So let’s rejoice, and not lament
That we must work and spend
Some time and force and energy
To protect and to defend

Our homes, our life, our property
We need to comprehend
The crucial stark necessity
Of staying ready to defend

Bitcoin provides a new defense
A system we recommend
Without the loss of life or limb
Yet strong enough to defend

Securely checked, encrypted too
All attacks it will transcend
This resilient form of property
We’ll protect, and we’ll defend

Though we’ve got our Bitcoin plan
Strong and safe until the end
Let’s give thanks and honor those
Who protect and who defend

It might make sense to get some
In case it catches on
Satoshi said of Bitcoin
At Bitcoin’s earliest dawn

Yes, it just might make some sense
In case it catches on
To get some of this early tech
Before the Bitcoin’s gone

Maybe I should get some now
It seems it’s catching on
So I can gain more freedom
And not remain a pawn

It could be time - make a choice
Conclusions must be drawn
But you may just want to get some
In case it catches on

“Fiat” in Latin means “let it be done”
Yes, a “binding edict” for everyone
So “fiat money” means “by decree”
THE approved money for you and me

“Fiat lux” means “Let there be light”
God said the words, God has the right
But fiat money by leaders decreed
Abuses that role - if inflating by greed

Dollars are printing by trillions, it’s true
And all decreed money is inflating too
If “by decree” - debased money we use
Much of its value we can and do lose

Now you can use a “money” that’s new
Not “by decree”, so it’s freeing for you
Bitcoin is money that plays by the rules
Safe and predictable - no one it fools

The money printing, controlled by a few
Takes from the rest - not much we can do
You can use Bitcoin, by choice - not decree
Let’s make the choice - so we can be free

Bitcoin is Revolutionary
As power structures rearrange

Bitcoin is Immutable
A pristine record we can’t change

Bitcoin is totally Public
It’s for all to use (and see)

Bitcoin is Collaborative
Community run - by you and me

Bitcoin is fully Open
No permission required for use

Bitcoin is Resistant
To censorship and abuse

Bitcoin is Decentralized
Making the ledger strong
Bitcoin is a RIPCORD
Join the team and come along

No single point of failure
In the worldwide Bitcoin net
No access for the hacker
To see what they can get

No single point to regulate
When governments oppress
No governmental overreach
No thank you - we’ll take less

No single point for dominance
For a group to change the plan
The core code is immutable
Set in place when it began

No single point of weakness
No inflating to gain power
Like Ulysses - we plan ahead
To stay safe in the siren’s hour

No point where we discriminate
Or allow the “favored few”
To gain the wealth of Bitcoin
It’s for all - including YOU

“No single point” brings benefits
And freedoms - in its wake
So let’s promote “no single point”
For us, and our children’s sake
