Satoshi Nakamoto from 21 by Akro

[INTRO]
Yo, this is Akro, settin’ the stage, no prayers, just facts,
A nod to the shadow who lit the cypherpunk tracks.
From the ‘80s grind to the Bitcoin dawn,
Let’s roll through the tale—history reborn.

[VERSE 1]
Back in the ‘80s, minds like Diffie and Hellman sparked the flame,
Crypto rebels codin’ freedom, no one knew their name.
Cypherpunks rose, Chaum with his blind sigs in ‘82,
Digital cash dreams, breakin’ chains they’d construe.
‘90s hit hard, PGP and Zimmermann’s fight,
Encryption wars ragin’, govs tryna dim the light.
Julf and Hughes dropped remailers to hide the trace,
Anonymity’s birth, settin’ the underground pace.
2008 rolled in, crisis shook the globe,
Satoshi dropped the white paper, a rebellion’s robe.
No face, no fame, just a vision so clear,
Peer-to-peer cash, endin’ fiat’s sneer.

[CHORUS]
Dance to the code, feel the rhythm take hold,
Satoshi’s gift, a story retold.
Move to the beat, freedom’s in sight,
Thank you, shadow, for the digital fight!

[VERSE 2]
Early days, forums buzzin’, cypherpunks in the chat,
Finney minin’ the first block, history’s combat.
Hal Finney’s proof, a node runnin’ strong,
Satoshi’s reply, the movement’s song.
2010, Bitcoin’s price a dime,
Geeks tradin’ pizzas, buildin’ paradigm.
Mt. Gox rise, then the crash, a test,
Community held tight, passin’ every quest.
Silk Road stirred the pot, dark web’s wild play,
Satoshi stepped back, leavin’ us the way.
Blocks kept minin’, network grew wide,
A decentralized dream, no rulers to abide.

[CHORUS]

[VERSE 3]
2013, price spiked, world took note,
Cypherpunk roots bloomin’ in every vote.
ASICs kicked in, minin’ got real,
Decentralization tested, a forged steel.
Scalin’ debates, forks split the crew,
Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, visions anew.
Satoshi’s silence, a mystery untold,
But the chain kept rollin’, worth more than gold.
Today we stand, 2025’s peak,
Ten million wallets, future’s not bleak.
From ciphered letters to blockchain’s hum,
Thanks, Satoshi, for what you’ve become.

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]
No god, no myth, just a coder’s plan,
A thank you for the tech, built by human hands.
From the ‘80s shadows to the open main,
This is our legacy, breakin’ every chain.
Communities grow, devs keep the flame,
Wallets secure, no one’s to blame.
Privacy fights, Lightning strikes fast,
Satoshi’s vision, built to outlast.
Banks still shake, old systems fade,
Cypherpunk spirit, a revolution made.
Four minutes deep, this track’s our salute,
To the mind behind it, keepin’ freedom absolute.

[CHORUS]

[OUTRO]
Yo, Akro signin’ off, the tale’s been spun,
Satoshi’s legacy, the fight’s just begun.
Keep dancin’ to the code, let the beat resound,
Cypherpunk roots deep in this sound.
Move to the beat, freedom’s in sight,
Thank you, shadow, for the digital fight!
