"Hey Solana / Hey Bitcoin / Hey Ethereum / Hey Aya" — we should only wage war with butterflies and love.
Hey Solana
We can be your (blockchain)
(soy boy) big brother
We don't need to fight a war
for users and developers
We build apps that bridge us all together
Competition can be over
Because Ethereum
Is a positive Sum
Built by and for everyone
Hey Bitcoin
Lucky you were never called a shitcoin (altcoin)
you were the first to inspire
Our Ethereum co-creator
His magazine wasn't
just an ordinary page turner
Even though we don't
Know your founder
Vitalik found inspiration
From your magical ledger
We should only wage war
with butterflies and love
The infinite garden isn't just a place for fun
Decentralized
Permission-less
and open-sourced
Even with the layer one as our shield,
and the layer two as our sword
All we need to wage in a war
Is butterflies and love
Because Ethereum is a positive sum
Built by and for everyone
Hey Ethereum
I still love you most of all
You are the world computer
Built by all my brothers and sisters
Together we don't have to fight a war
All we need is butterflies and love
To pollinate the infinite-garden
Which grows strong and tall
And make us all look small
In the infinite garden
Hey Aya 🌸
Don't let the arrows pointed at ya
Ever pierce your lovely heart
From the start
you were the heart beat
Of the ethereum foundation
You taught us the power of subtraction
and your very first reaction
Was that you didn't want a title
That's why we have such fertile soil
For us all to grow equal
In the infinite garden
🌱 The story
The Ethereum Singapore team recorded Shaka in Singapore — with Aya present in the studio. When he first played "Butterflies and Love" for her at the ArtScience Museum, it brought her to tears. He didn't know she was in the hardest year of her leadership when he wrote it — the universe gave him the song so he could sing it in defense of her leadership and wisdom: that Ethereum maintains its values and doubles down on what is true, in the garden from which C.R.O.P.S. grew. 🌱
