To the Moon

Checking my portfolio every five minutes

Red numbers staring back, my hope diminished

Bought the dip, then it dipped some more

Now I'm eating ramen, can't afford much more

Diamond hands they said, just hold and wait

But my rent is due and I can't be late

HODL till I die, but bills don't wait

Crypto dreams turning into my worst fate

Promised me lambo, promised me fame

Now I'm just broke, playing this game

Reddit said moon, Twitter said buy

Now I'm wondering why I ever tried

To the moon, to the moon

That's what everybody said

To the moon, to the moon

Now my savings are all dead

Bought at the peak, sold in fear

Lost everything I held dear

To the moon was just a dream

Nothing's ever what it seems

Friends all became millionaires overnight

Showing off their gains on Instagram sight

While I'm here calculating every cent

Wondering where all my money went

Telegram groups with their insider tips

Led me down to financial eclipse

Influencers pushing coins all day

While retail investors like me just pay

Maybe I should've just saved in a bank

Instead of believing in this crypto tank

But the possibility, the chance to escape

Had me buying every dip and every fake

Now I know the game is rigged

For the little guy to get big

To the moon, to the moon

That's what everybody said

To the moon, to the moon

Now my savings are all dead

Bought at the peak, sold in fear

Lost everything I held dear

To the moon was just a dream

Nothing's ever what it seems

Deleted the apps, threw away the keys

Learned expensive lessons about guarantees

Maybe someday I'll try again

But for now, I'll stick to cash, my friend

To the moon was just a phrase

That cost me all my savings in a haze
