Melodious Music Memoirs # 7: The Bitcoin Song - Open Mic Night Contest Wk 3 Entry (Original Song)
Bitcoin Song Original Music
Full Song Lyrics Below:
I am really humbled that my steemit song inspired the open mic contest. Again big thanks to @pfunk, @kevinwong and @luzcypher for their time effort and consideration to put this wonderful platform together for our artistic community. Also big thanks for the rewards and contribution of my participation and achieving 1st place in week 2 of the Open Mic Contest.
Just want to show due appreciation and gratitude and I hope you enjoy this song for what it is. I really think it is important that we educate ourselves and the future generations in actual life lessons especially regarding money management and life investments and diversifying one's financial portfolio.
The only note about the track I used in the background is that I quickly recorded some Adlibs to emphasize some punchlines in the verses as well as record some harmony layers for the singing aspect over the chorus and bridge Outro sections for fullness of presentation.
I hope you can take something positive from this musical experience.
Please enjoy the song.

Verse 1:
In this life we work hard tryna stay employed
Working til we stressed out can’t even enjoy
The paychecks that are coming in, the money is destroyed
By the many bills we have is like our progress is then void
Rich are getting richer cause they own the banks
We’re thirsty for success with no river upon the banks
What’s your balance looking like? Better check its current state
Wanna find the right investments? purchase crypto currency
Financial system’s just another pyramid scheme
Tri-angle wisdom with a lyricist’s dream
Envisioning the money like a myriad theme
It can be intricately written like the Iliad be
We’re fighting for survival like we’re warriors in Troy
The green is at the top of the white stock/stalk like bok choy
Don’t let ‘em trick you like Trojan Horses and decoys
When market blows up, then we’re cashing out bitcoins
Uh huh uh huh, I said
When market blows up, then we’re cashing out bitcoins
Uh huh uh huh, I said
When market blows up, then we’re cashing out bitcoins
Verbal D
Chorus:
People ‘ve got to know
How many to make their money grow
So we can all be financially secure
Don’t wanna struggle any more
Have a house upon the shores
Relaxing all day, No debts that we pay or stress to endure
Verbal D
Verse 2:
Eyes open, intuition
Looking at the stars cause we’re into wishing
For a better life, a better job, better school
How many fees are intuitions?
Book smart or street smart, we gotta get a scholarship
And if granted, we’re the captains of a scholar ship
Moves overseas, no belly of beast
Avoiding any danger, from the orca’s mouth the otter slips
Over ya heads, pilots of a helicopter trip
Flying out to China, Barbados, and now the Gaza strip
Networking for partnerships and more sponsorships
Planning for the future, so this money here we ought to flip
Hold onto my soul throughout the process ‘cause I gotta grip
God protect me from the evil, people know I’m not equipped
But I’mma shine through the obstacles like a hot eclipse
Reaching for success for my family before apocalypse
Verbal D
Chorus:
People ‘ve got to know
How many to make their money grow
So we can all be financially secure
Don’t wanna struggle any more
Have a house upon the shores
Relaxing all day, No debts that we pay or stress to endure
Verbal D
Bridge/Outro:
The people’ve got to know,
The people’ve got to know
How to make their money grow, oh oh oh (x2)

That was an awesome groove. They should play it at Steemfest. Love it and can't get enough of it. Thanks for adding the lyrics too and for entering again. Hamburg is a great city. I lived in Regensburg, Germany for two years. Love Germany.
Thank you very much for your kind words. I wanted to make it as catchy as possible. That would be a fest opportunity to showcase either the Steemit or Bitcoin song on steem fest. I contacted @steemradio so hope I can make some kind of positive impact.
