Well howdy there folks! You tired of centralized nonsense telling you what's money and what ain't?
You tired of the shitcoiners getting your way of ushering in hyper-Bitcoinization?
Come on down to Trinkets for Plebs, where decentralization ain't just a buzzword, it's a lifestyle.
Now I can't tell you that these trinkets do much, but I can tell you they shine brighter than fiat promises
and they're built tougher than a shitposter in a bear market.
You like freedom? You like sound money? You like things that make your in-laws nervous at Thanksgiving?
Then brother, you need yourself a pleb trinket.
These little beauties whisper one truth and one truth only.
Bitcoin is money.
Say it with me now.
Bitcoin is money.
And folks, I ain't talking about some fancy Wall Street ETF nonsense.
No, sir.
I'm talking peer-to-peer, open-source, borderless, magic, internet, hard money trinkets.
Don't ask how it works.
Just know the plebs are stacking them.
The bonafide, glorified, purity test certified trinkets are running out faster than block
space when Udi has VC money.
So bring your sats, your hash power, and your best buddy Jim,
the one who still thinks Dogecoin's a retirement plan,
and come on down to Trinkets for Plebs, where we don't sell dreams, we mine them.
Trinkets for Plebs, decentralization you can hold in your hand.
Seriously, who the fuck thought it was a good idea to take a sponsorship from Trinkets with Plebs?
I'm getting so tired of all the fucking Plebslop stuff, guys.
I just don't want to hear about it anymore.
I don't fucking care.
Yes, it's there, and we all have to see it every single day,
but you need to stop talking about it.
It's become a problem, an addiction.
You are addicted to calling out plebslop.
Why can't you just be addicted to things like normal people are?
Just do some cocaine, get really drunk, and screw some hookers.
There's some cute ones out there if you hang around Michael Saylor.
Quit tearing down the heroes of the plebs and exposing them for spewing worthless plebslop.
I don't care if this is the biggest story of the century.
Just fucking cut it out, you maniacs.
Anyways, even if you keep on going, I'll still love you guys.
This is Kaylee Welch, and you are listening to The Bugle Weekend.
All right, folks, we're going to try something a little bit different for this episode.
Ron and I are going to give our opinions.
We're about a year in from the greatest selection of our lifetimes.
Donald Trump was selected for president of the United States.
And it was a big moment.
It was a big moment in Bitcoin's history.
It was a big moment in Solana Meme Coins history.
And it's been a wild year.
It's been a very wild year.
It doesn't feel like it's been a year.
It feels a lot longer.
The news cycle has been intense because we're on the fourth turning.
And in the fourth turning, it's the best time to be a journalist
because you get to report on things that are actually consequential instead of, you know,
typically what journalists do outside of the fork turning is they make big deals out of things that aren't that important.
But every day you get to look at what's happening around you in the world and, you know, point to things that actually matter,
which is, you know, why I find it kind of strange that there's so much pleb slop, because it's unnecessary.
You can just talk about things that are interesting that are happening, but we're not going to talk about pleb slop that much in this episode.
I don't think. I don't know what Rod's got in store, but I'm not planning on it.
yeah
to be honest I've been
both impressed and disappointed
with the Trump presidency so far
his memes have been savage
his memes have been absolutely
savage he has
you know really eviscerated
the left like like the nazis can't meme the left can't meme as well and um the memes have been
really crazy but uh he's going through some of uh i think it's helpful to reflect
on things from time to time because when you're in the fort turning when you're in these crazy
news cycles, it's so easy to forget what just happened.
And this is something that, you know, journalists and the media are very effective at is they
they're very effective at just bombarding people so that they forget what happened previously.
But yeah, let's go through some of Donald Trump's campaign promises.
So number one was immigration.
He has really stuck to that one.
he has been so hard on that one uh there have been civil unrest over it it's been very jarring
for a lot of people uh on us to do some large tax cuts and sure if taxes have really gotten that much
affordable he promised to make energy less expensive and to end inflation and make america
affordable again. I don't think Americans right now are feeling like taxes are more affordable.
I don't think they're feeling like energy is more affordable. Gas has stayed relatively flat
over the past year. It came down going into the selection. I don't think inflation has ended.
it's kind of a you know when you when you hear a politician at this point
of the economic cycle promised to end inflation uh you know that they're lying because you've
listened to lynn alden you know that lynn alden's hot and that she's telling the truth when uh
nothing stops this train and uh i don't think the train has been slashed on that but yet
energy prices have been going up across the board and i would
i think it's just because the plebs are deploying so many bit acts to start nine servers like the
capacity is just unreal these guys are deploying these knots nodes and so it kind of counteracts
like the pleb trinkets being deployed
or counteracting any sort of drop in energy prices
due to slashing regulations.
So I think it's too early to conclusively say
he's failed on that.
It's just, I don't know.
You know, this might be this thing where energy prices can't get cheaper because you think as we hyper Bitcoin eyes, there's going to be more and more plug trinkets deployed.
I think that's a safe assumption.
Like, you know, the future of hyper Bitcoinization is a plug trinket in every home or multiple plug trinkets.
So I think that's like a bad campaign promise that, you know, you kind of have something working against you and the power of the plebs deploying trinkets.
Promise to bring manufacturing back to the United States.
And I just don't think the robots have been deployed quick enough to replace the illegal immigrants.
So we'll probably have to give them another couple of years, but they're working on those robots pretty quick.
I think he promised no new wars
we've got a few new wars
but I'm just going to go over the surface level ones
but the country has changed a lot in the last year
and the attitude has changed a lot
I spend my time with Bitcoin podcasters
for the most part
I hang out with Bitcoin podcasters
and I hang out with the pioneers
and what I see for the pioneers
is all their lives are getting better.
And the reason why their lives are getting better
is not because of everything around them
but because of the things they're doing for themselves
despite the things happening around them.
But when I look at the plebs,
their lives are dramatically getting worse.
And I wouldn't blame Trump for that.
I think that's just the consequences
of tolerating plebs long for so long,
tolerating the nonsense, the building your worldview, building your decisions, the way
that you form opinions and make decisions on top of nonsense, on top of slop.
And there's consequences coming around for that.
It works in the first, second, and third turning, but it sure as hell doesn't work in the fourth.
The bill comes due and the bill is due.
And so the plebs are having a hard time.
They're having a really hard time.
A lot of plebs out there, they're feeling a sense of hopelessness.
They're feeling a sense of like things are out of control.
You look at the political podconf ecosystem.
They're talking about civil war.
You talk to people outside of the United States and they're asking,
what the Civil War is like.
The news that they're consuming
saying it's already happening.
And in a lot of ways it is.
It's just not very clear
what the sides are.
You got the boomers standing in the streets
yelling no kings.
But that's kind of hard to point out
and say it's a definitive Civil War.
is that the boomers aren't going to fight for anything at this point they're they're too old
they going to go back home and uh you know cash your social security check so they can go out to the casino uh their their fight over um but we watching globally I mean it been really interesting The Zoomers are overthrowing governments
all around the world.
The broccoli haircuts,
they're storming their government buildings,
they're spanking the politicians.
We have yet to see that type of anger
really foment in the U.S. to that extent.
And I don't know if it's coming.
it might come
but yeah for the the plebs we're going into the holiday season
and things are going to be really hard for the plebs they're they're going to be asking
themselves should they buy their family christmas presents or should they save to be able to afford
their taxes they're going to be you know having to make some hard financial decisions this has
been ongoing for some time, but it seems like it's accelerating and it's accelerating fast.
And, um, there's this looming trade war or while it's not looming, it's been an ongoing,
but it's kind of hanging over right now with some, uh, tensions between the U S and China.
If that really, uh, heats up right now or doesn't get resolved really quick this week,
uh christmas could be pretty painful for some people thanksgiving could be pretty painful for
some people but the the biggest change i think is just there's a sense of uncertainty
and the plebs do not like uncertainty they like stability they like this is part of the reason why
they they get sucked into these um constructs like government and uh
you know, they're looking around.
They were at the conference in Nashville.
They were so excited about Trump saying,
have fun playing with your Bitcoins.
And the price hasn't gone up to the extent that they wanted it to.
The price hasn't been exciting.
And all they've gotten is podcasters telling them that Bitcoin's broken.
The price hasn't gone up.
Luke's out there saying that Bitcoin's weaker than ever.
Their situation is significantly harder right now.
And they're upset.
They're grumpy.
They were watching Simply Bitcoin videos
and they were told that what amount of Bitcoin
they needed to be able to retire.
And they acquired that amount of Bitcoin
and they can barely afford to pay their taxes.
That's their situation right now.
And they're, you know, wondering if they're ever going to be able to retire, if they're ever going to be able to buy a house, if they're ever going to be able to, you know, get to the point where they're actually able to do anything that they want to do.
And it's fascinating to watch.
I mean, I think the biggest thing that has been, you know, really fascinating for me to watch over the past year is the complete divergence between the experience the plebs are having and the pioneers.
You know, the individuals that are taking ownership for themselves, their minds, their lives, the success that they're having, the, you know, creative adventures that they're going on, people starting families, people having kids, people doing some really, really cool building businesses.
There's a lot of opportunity out there, even though, you know, things are chaotic.
and I think a huge part of it is a mindset
clubs want stability they want to be ruled they want to be
given things
without a lot of effort that's why that's why they're like
slop is because it doesn't take a lot of effort to consume it doesn't take a lot of
thought and just look at it you know feel good about
themselves wow I'm so informed I'm on the right side of things
whatever it is like that that's the instant gratification of consuming slop is feeling like
you i'm already failing not to talk about it i guess i guess kaylee was right and i am
completely addicted to uh plump slop at this point but there's an instant gratification of
consuming of this confirmation bias of I'm on the right team.
I'm on the right side of history.
And what,
you know,
there's been this severe conditioning,
at least in the United States,
it's probably global or at least,
you know,
largely in the Western United States around the allied forces being
victorious in World War II and being on the right side of history.
I don't know what it would be like to grow up in Japan.
Like what,
what is the,
the storytelling there?
They were on the wrong side of history,
like never repeat it.
What's like to be in Germany,
just completely emasculated as a population.
You're on the wrong side of history.
Never,
never again.
Um,
but in the West,
outside of those countries,
uh,
we're told we're on the right side of history.
And,
um,
democracy, freedom.
And, you know, that's what the plebs want.
They want to feel that way.
But, you know, the thing is,
in times of tribulation,
in times of
difficulties, being on
the right side of the history
tends to mean that you do
the hard thing.
And the plebs will never do the hard thing.
I don't know if it's an unwillingness
or an incapability,
but it
I guess it depends on the individual and the decisions that they make in the personality.
Some people are just incapable of ever being sentient.
But I think a lot of them make the decision not to.
They weigh out their options.
They're like, we're going to choose the safety of the crowd.
We will sacrifice our children to Moloch instead of doing the correct thing and protecting our children.
And it's going to be tough for them.
because there's not that safety.
And they're going to have to live with the consequences of their decisions.
Like, I just don't feel like where we're at and where we're going,
there's going to be the same level of safety net where you can make really bad decisions.
I'm seeing a lot of people, a lot of people post about, you know, various cancers.
And, you know, I have friends that are impacted by this, you know, various health issues, you know, young, healthy people.
And I'm wondering, it's like one of those things that's impossible to determine, you know, the causation of sometimes.
But I wonder if it's been impacted or accelerated because of the vaccine.
That was a test.
that was a test that a lot of people failed a lot of really intelligent people failed
it was a hard test a lot of people faced a lot of extreme social pressures but there's going to
be a lot of tests like that going forward we're being subjected to these types of tests
on a daily basis you know these decisions of either setting yourself up for success
or just completely neutering your ability to thrive in the future.
And I don't think it's ever been more important to use your brain.
Never been more important to listen to Bitcoin podcasts.
It's never been more important to smoke cigarettes.
It's really never been more important to really trust yourself
and trust your gut and believe in yourself.
Because I think part of making good decisions is really believing in yourself, like really putting your time into investing in yourself, investing in your relationships, building yourself out, being around other people that build you up.
I'm going to play an ad from the selection special.
Cause I,
I think these things like going,
I said this earlier,
but you know,
going back and remembering,
you know,
the feelings and emotions that were happening at the time is important.
You know,
remembering the topics that were being debated is so easy to forget.
And when you forget about how quickly things change,
how,
how upset the plebs were at the time,
you know, the grandstand,
they're ready to, you know, throw down,
you know, there were people protesting,
you know, pretty violently in some cases,
like leading up to the election
about things like abortion.
When you forget about those things,
you forget the context needed
to be able to make good, accurate decisions in the moment.
Because the same exact tools of manipulation
are being used over and over again.
But here's the ad.
On November 5th, a Bitcoiner will be selected into the White House.
Both candidates, Kamala Harris and Adolf Hitler,
have embraced Bitcoin and crypto,
making this the most important selection in our nation's history.
While it's not public who you vote for,
It sure is public if you voted or not.
That way, boomers who deeply care about our democracy
can harass and shame you for not voting.
Remember, if you vote, you have no right to complain
because you are helping to select
non-compliant criminals into office.
But voting is our sacred duty Our generation grandfathers stormed the beaches of Normandy in order to save the Jews from the Holocaust So the nation of Israel could be founded in order for your tax dollars to go towards funding
the Iron Dome.
Voting is your sacred duty because you exist only
for two reasons.
You exist to vote in order to give legitimacy to government
and two to generate tax dollars for government
to export democracy to places that don't want it.
Savages living peacefully around the world
need to be conquered in order to serve US corporations
and to enlighten them to the wonders of gender and democracy.
You can see why this election is so high stakes
and requires you to participate in it.
Both candidates have made so many promises
to do so many great things for you.
Both have promised to print a lot of money
in order to make Bitcoin go up.
Both have promised to make things cheaper
while at the same time make taxes affordable.
Fortunately, both candidates feel strongly
about using million dollar missiles
to shoot down $1,000 missiles.
But you can only vote for one of them,
and the choice is yours.
This is the most important selection
in the history of the world.
That is until Dennis Porter runs in 2028.
Make sure to get to the polls to vote in person.
But if you can't, follow Ted Kaczynski's advice.
The clip got cut off, but it ends by saying vote by mail.
So yeah, I mean, one of the things about Donald Trump
is many people were excited about him being Bitcoin.
David Bailey gave him that cashless coin or whatever it's called.
And he was the first president, at least that I'm aware of, that, you know, was ever self-custody in Bitcoin.
Because when David handed him that coin, that was self-custody, which was, you know, a very brilliant marketing scheme by David.
Very brilliant.
He was the first president to go to PubKey and have a failed lightning transaction.
He was the first president to, you know, talk fondly about Bitcoin, to posture on it.
What did he do?
He launched a meme coin on Solana, and then he sued people that criticized him for it.
Should it be surprising?
I don't find it surprising.
you know we're all shit coiners
in the eyes of the lord
but you kind of have to expect
politicians to be shit coiners
because they're fiat
and shit coins are fiat
this is what a lot of bitcoin people
fail to see
they kind of classify
shit coins as if it's like this
entirely different
um
is like an entirely different category.
But it's not.
It's the same as fiat.
It's literally the same.
What is Bitcoin the representation of?
Well, it's going to be different for a lot of different people,
but I think what is exciting about Bitcoin
is your inability to manipulate and control it.
there's like a set,
there's something set to it.
Like I know when I go and I buy cigarettes and I do an on-chain transaction,
I don't do these little lightning cigarette transactions.
I buy a lot of cigarettes at once.
I have a lot of cigarettes to buy.
Do it on-chain transaction.
I know that a pool is going to mine it.
It's not going to be censored.
my transaction is not going to be reversed.
And there's really not a lot of review process.
It's not like there's eyeballs on it
where the pool is evaluating the transaction
on whether they're going to take it or not,
whether they deem my transaction worthy.
And that's kind of, that's really cool.
And I feel like what's strange right now
about this environment that we're in,
in the discourse is like there, there's some questioning of that, you know, should, should
the pools or should different individuals have a review process over my transaction for
cigarettes or, you know, whatever the transaction is.
And I know that is upsetting.
This is going to be upsetting, you know, the Nazi plus, I don't really care.
but it's just a
it's a very different dynamic
that has entered the mix
of you know
suggesting that that
should be questioned
and I think it's an interesting precedent
like this is
you know the fiat world
the political world has changed
dramatically
Trump came in
he completely eviscerated the left
completely
in total disarray
nobody likes them nobody liked them in the first place but they were powerful before and um
these individuals that had all the power they had control of all the institutions and they had in
many ways they had control of all the culture lost it it was a radical change within a year
Has it really yielded anything different?
Well, we're still ruled by the Epstein list.
And that was pretty clear.
The wars are still going on.
The printing is still going on.
The tax is still going on.
There's been some superficial changes.
Less of an emphasis on transgender bathrooms.
The culture war has changed a lot.
You can say gay and retard now.
Pretty close to being able to say the N-word.
hear people saying it all the time
but they're not saying it publicly yet
maybe in a couple of years
probably coming
white people are going to get their n-word privileges
like that's one of the impacts of fascism
is that white people can say the n-word
on podcasts
and on twitter
some people are already but
not very many are brave enough yet
But the Bitcoin ecosystem has changed quite a bit.
Quite a bit.
And I think it will continue to change.
I mean, we've seen this rise of stablecoin.
And we're going to continue to see this rise of stablecoins.
It's, you know, Bitcoin and Tether have become this giant geopolitical chess game.
Like it's the forefront of the geopolitical monetary warfare that's going on.
You got Scott Besson shilling Bitcoin.
Pretty weird.
But at the same time, you know, there's, you know, it's hard to say what's real because you've seen this posturing of Donald Trump and these other people saying that they're ending operation choke point 2.0.
That they're being friendly here towards crypto businesses.
But then you also see the developers getting prosecuted.
And in the Bitcoin ecosystem, you see a lot of people, you know, talking about how the state's going to come in and regulate the way that you operate a Bitcoin node, unless you change.
You got to out-comply the state before they come and regulate you.
And whether that's just, you know, kind of like those are vapid arguments that are never going to come to fruition or if they're real, it's a massive change in discussion and conversation that wasn't being had before.
and some people might, you know,
explain that as Bitcoin Core making changes.
But I don't know.
I mean, maybe this is part of living in fascist America.
Like we could have had a complete retard running things
and people wouldn't have been as upset
at the core devs for being woke and gay.
That's kind of an interesting thing to think about
just from like a cultural standpoint,
but the Overton window has shifted
and the Nazi plebs are not putting up
with gay and woke core devs at all.
It's just interesting.
It's interesting to see these tides culturally,
the way that they shift,
the way that they change.
I think a lot of the plebs, you know, their opinion,
they get these firmware updates.
And in many ways, the selection cycles are firmware updates
for the plebs.
And I think, you know, the political system in the United States
And I imagine this is very similar in other parts of the world because, you know, democracy and these two-party systems, which a lot of countries have, are so effective at channeling, just completely immobilizing the plabs because they fight each other.
in the United States
you know the Republicans are always mad at the Democrats
everything is at the Democrats fault
and the Democrats are always mad at the Republicans
and they're too busy being mad
to have any sort of self-awareness as to what's going on
and realizing you know who's really screwing them
it's the Epstein-Klein list
and we've seen
multiple Nazi
plebs try to frame the conversation
as if the whatever the current scuffle is an argument around relay policy as if this is a right versus left issue
And we've seen the Bitcoin ecosystem
really become aligned on two sides
and people fighting each other.
You've got, you know, the intellectual elite
on either side, you know, constantly bickering
with each other, constantly bickering with each other.
And it's really drowning out a lot of interesting stuff that's happening that's kind of important,
such as developers getting prosecuted, such as there not being a lot of energy put into,
rather there's hardly as much energy being put into building things and shipping things and
deploying things because there's so much energy being spent on fighting each other it's just it's
kind of fascinating to watch it's fascinating to watch these two camps and and i think
it's not a
like a full perspective
but it's because there are
a lot of people doing things and
you know to be fair most
Bitcoin users just don't give a shit
a lot of Bitcoin users
don't even know
what's going on
a lot of Bitcoin users
don't know who Luke Dash Jr. is
they don't know who Peter Todd is
they don't care
but
some of these things could be consequential.
If this soft work is, you know, contentiously implemented,
it could create a mess, could create a very messy situation
beyond just, it's been socially messy,
but it could be messy in the protocol level.
I'm not going to speak to that too much
but
I think a lot of people are going to have a hard time
unless they're just willing to embrace the chaos
and just accept it
if they're too set on their ideals
this is how I want the world to look
and I'm not going to be happy
unless it looks exactly how I want it to
they're going to be unhappy.
Like you have to
live life on life's terms
and just embrace it.
You got to embrace the things
coming at you.
I'm not saying that you
have to put up with the bullshit.
You shouldn't put up with the bullshit
at all.
But you kind of have to
just accept that there's going to be bullshit.
It's unavoidable.
and that's a big
distinguishment
and I think that's
where
I'm seeing
the difference in attitudes
that different people have because
you know a lot of people that think the
Nazis are retarded
they don't
necessarily
vehemently support core
I wouldn't call them core menas
and i think it's okay to be you know in this um you know as the nazis frame in a lot a left versus
right battle i think it's it's fine to be politically homeless like i think most of the
people that interact with bitcoin or historically have have been excited about bitcoin because they
they have been politically homeless like they they don't they don't care about the kayfabe
They realize it's all bullshit.
They're like, oh, my interests aren't getting represented.
My taxes aren't getting cheaper no matter who's in office.
My purchasing power is constantly getting eroded.
Everything's getting more expensive.
And it's okay to be politically homeless.
But yeah, it's been an incredibly wild year.
We'll probably do an end-of-the-year recap.
in December.
But, you know, just looking at the political world around us,
you know, the world has changed dramatically.
Afghanistan, I just can't get over this.
Fucking Afghanistan tried to invade Pakistan.
How crazy is that?
The Taliban is an organized group.
After the U.S. government being in there,
so the Soviets were in there
they're trying to pummel him
completely failed
US is in there
pummeling him
for a long time
eventually gave up
now these guys
tried to invade Pakistan
got totally spanked
I don't know if Pakistan
is going to try and
I think they know better
but
that's where we're at
in the world
right now
it's so fucking crazy
Pakistan is trying to invade, or sorry, Afghanistan is trying to invade Pakistan.
We're going to see a lot of really crazy shit like that going forward.
It's not over.
It's just, in many ways, it's just starting.
And it's never been a better time to be a pioneer, you know, and have that mindset.
And, you know, maybe the pioneer meme and framing is kind of getting old and cheesy, but it's symbolic of, you know, this individual that really takes responsibility for themselves, that reads Atlas Shrugged and smokes cigarettes, that just focuses on the things that are important to them.
Doubles down.
Bats on themselves.
Uses their brains.
but yeah,
I'm going to be interested to see what Rod has in store.
Yeah.
Let me,
let me know what you think.
I'm curious to hear what our listeners think,
you know,
drop a boost.
Let me know what,
you know,
your reflections on this past year of the,
the Trump presidency are shoot me a message.
I'm pretty easy to find.
You can find me on Twitter,
telegram or an officer to shoot me a message.
Let me know what you think.
I'm sure you guys are going to have some pretty good insights.
Yeah, thanks for listening to my bit.
Now on to Rod.
This is part one of the Bugles review of Donald Trump's first year in office.
Part two featuring Rod's take will be coming out soon.
Thank you all for listening.
The Fountain Boost will be read on part two.
I lost my job today and my cards are maxed out
My wife is pissed, my life a mess, I feel doubt
Why can't we jump and our problems away
Like the way boomers did back in the day
I look at my kids with a tear in my eye
Questioning whether they are destined for a war or to die
Raising little soldiers to fight and protect this nation
While I'm attempting to fight off starvation
I look at my kids with a tear in my eye
Questioning whether they are destined for a war zone to die
Raising little soldiers to fight and protect this nation
While I'm attempting to fight off starvation
How am I supposed to get around when the car was repossessed?
No food, no car, no dignity, but now I'm stressed
Now my heart is hurt, it's beating out of my chest
Final chapter 7 after eating at McDonald's is not the best
I remember the days before the world went mad
Back when I trusted the TV, it wasn't sad.
I had a dollar in my pocket, Nikes on my feet.
I miss the days when I could afford to eat good meat.
All I ever asked for is to be able to afford paying taxes.
But now the IRS is on my dick watching my transactions.
I can't afford to live this way, can't you cut me some slack?
Why can't someone else do the hard work to get our country back?
Binging Netflix isn't taking the pain away.
It feels like the only thing I can do is pray
Lord, please help me afford to pay the state
There is no way I can't afford the fees if I pay late
The sheriff is on my doorstep to kick me in the balls
My phone won't stop ringing from debt collector calls
All I want to do is comply and be left alone
But I can't afford anything and I'm getting kicked out of my home
I remember the days before the world went mad
Back when I trusted the TV, it wasn't sad
I had a dollar in my pocket and Nikes on my feet
I miss the days when I could afford to eat good meat
All I ever asked for is to be able to
Before paying taxes
But now the IRS is on my dick
Watching my transactions
I can't afford to live this way
Can't you cut me some slack
Why can't someone else do the hard work
To get our country back
Every night I go to sleep
What should I not wake up
When we wake up in the morning
I can't afford whiskey in my cup
How can I numb out the pain
And hide from reality
Why can't I find a way
To escape the brutality
It's starting to seem like the only way out is to take action.
There is no way to hide from reality and choose distractions.
The only way out is forwards.
I will not give in.
Finding a way to afford to pay taxes is how we win.
