We’re doom-drunk monkeys on a dying ride,
pretending we’re immortal with panic inside.
Some scream “flood it all once we’re gone!”,
others buy heaven like a discount con.

Then come the billionaires chasing endless nights,
hoarding gold, worshipping lab-coat knights.
Begging for upgrades to dodge the grave,
psychos praying science will make them “save.”

Physics, code, flesh in a frantic race,
all trying to out-run death’s cold embrace.
And me? I spit the only truth worth the fight:
Laziness is the virtue that burns the brightest light.

Laziness is the virtue that burns the brightest light.
