your money will not save you
your portfolio is no refuge
from the unraveling that is to come
there is no safety in gold
in crypto you cannot trust
we stand naked atop a bomb set to explode
man is wolf to man
he will never change
always shitting where he eats
the earth hates us
we hate ourselves
this generation will see hell while yet still alive
it will beg for death
the apocalypse is nigh
