[Verse 1]

I was just a dreamer with a plan in my hand,
Talking 'bout tomorrow, making people understand.
Liquidity, blockchain, a future shining bright,
But every promise made another sleepless night.

They called me a leader,
Said I looked the part,
Nobody could see
What was breaking underneath my heart.

[Pre-Chorus]

One more month...
One more deal...
One more promise that would make it real...

[Chorus]

I kept the money moving,
Just to keep the dream alive.
Paying yesterday with tomorrow's sacrifice.
Every smiling investor,
Never saw the warning signs.
Now all that's left are empty wallets...
And these guilty eyes.

[Verse 2]

The mansion got bigger,
The stage lights got bright.
Charity dinners underneath the city lights.
People trusted confidence,
The watch, the suit, the name.
Nobody stopped asking
Where the profits really came.

The platform wasn't ready,
MLP was gone.
Still we kept believing
We could somehow carry on.

[Pre-Chorus]

Just one launch...
One more fund...
Surely everything would soon be overcome...

[Chorus]

I kept the money moving,
Just to keep the dream alive.
Paying yesterday with tomorrow's sacrifice.
Every monthly payment
Bought another little lie.
Now all that's left are broken families...
Wondering why.

[Bridge]

They say I wasn't alone...
Maybe that's true.
There were voices in the boardroom,
There were people pulling too.

But when the lights went dark,
And the headlines filled the sky,
The only name they remembered...
Was mine.

[Instrumental Break]

[Final Chorus]

You can't build forever
On money coming in.
Every borrowed dollar
Has a place it's been.

More than a thousand voices,
Two hundred fifty million gone.
Justice doesn't move quickly...
But it keeps moving on.

[Outro]

No software.
No miracle.
No billionaire walking through the door.

Just victims...
Waiting...
For answers...
Forevermore.
