Fear Of A Blockchain Planet

(Album: Blockchain Planet - 2021)

Pizzagate, deep state, y'all really believe this
And on January 6th we were ambushed by extremists
While the bots fanned the flames
From the shores of Coeur d'Alene
To the hills of West Virginia, algorithmically enraged
As they trended, divided, regrouped and rebranded
Transplanted, implanted, expanded, demanded
Palo Alto über alles
Huxley warned us this would happen
Mainlined the oxytocin and they monetized distraction
"This Laptop Kills Fascists" I once shouted proudly
Now our phones make us tired, anxious and grouchy
Looks like Hagel was right, divided so polemical
Amenable to narratives that once seemed so untenable

They buried Steve Jobs, while Alexander wept
They NFTed the planet in secret while we slept
Upvoted it on Reddit as they menaced the Helenics
I think there just might be a dark side to this global pandemic

Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
(Decentralized, web 3.0 here we go on the)
Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
Decentralized, Web 3.0 here we go

And everyone raps now, what am I even doing?
Playing chicken with my dreams for 20 years and still pursuing
This quixotic quest, chasing windmills with my friends
While Cervantes writes the sequel and I'm not sure how it ends
And I don't want you at my concerts anti-vaxxers, please stay home
Yeah I said it, play it back, y'all ain't welcome at my shows
And if you didn't hear me, here's the point I'm tryna tell you
The unsafe reckless people are not welcome in the venue
Flat Earthers round the world, stop, please don't make me laugh
Because I believe in science and facts are still facts
They're screaming "white genocide" it's a lie, as they try
To terrify the masses and get them on their side

They buried Steve Jobs, while Alexander wept
They NFTed the planet in secret while we slept
Said the upgrade was Edenic, the aesthetic was authentic
But what if there's a bright side to this global pandemic?

Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
(Decentralized, web 3.0 here we go on the)
Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
Blockchain Planet, it's the fear of the Blockchain
Decentralized, Web 3.0 here we go

And Alexander wept
And Alexander wept
And Alexander wept
And Alexander wept

So now you're getting the vibe of this record
A little angrier, a little more real
I have no patience for white supremacists, anti-vaxxers, flat earthers
Don't come at me with that insane garbage, this isn't 1244, it's not the Middle Ages
Anyway, welcome to Blockchain Planet
