“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 hard on 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
