Ashes, Oaths, and the Wide Blue Midnight
Verse 1 – Iran
Tehran’s bazaars breathe smoke and steam, prices burning holes in every dream. From Isfahan to Kermanshah’s streets, Lordegan storms the iron seats. Azna’s echoes shake the crown, a currency turned to paper brown. They sing against a steeled regime, since Amini’s name became a beam. A president swears to hear the cry, while a hardhand steps in, fists held high.

Chorus
Raise your hands to the thunder in the sky, world on fire, world alive. From ashes, oaths, to oceans wide, we ride the dark, we find the light. If the night throws sparks in our eyes, we turn it up and amplify. Hearts like drums, we won’t divide— one riff, one roar, one tide.
Verse 2 – New York City
A new oath sworn beneath the rails, a city’s veins, the hidden trails. Zohran Mamdani breaks the mold, Muslim, South Asian, a story bold. Letitia James with steady tone, two Qurans, a legacy shown— one from kin, one book of age, Schomburg lines on a living page. Sanders lifts the public cheer, AOC rings change so clear. Free buses, rent freeze, care for all, and old orders shattered with a call.

Chorus
Raise your hands to the thunder in the sky, world on fire, world alive. From ashes, oaths, to oceans wide, we ride the dark, we find the light. If the night throws sparks in our eyes, we turn it up and amplify. Hearts like drums, we won’t divide— one riff, one roar, one tide.
Verse 3 – Amsterdam
By Vondelpark a bell once sang, Cuypers carved its gothic fang. New Year’s spark, a tragic flame, a tower fell without a name. Roof to nave, the embers cold, a city’s cherished heart grown old. Halsema speaks through smoky air, “Low point” for a night laid bare. No lives lost, the people fled, to yoga floors with fear and thread. Fireworks whispered blame in flight, the cause still hidden from the light.

Verse 4 – MH370 Search
The ocean keeps its riddled hymn, a silver bird still lost and dim. From Fremantle winds to search-line marks, steel ghosts dive through midnight darks. “No find, no fee,” the contract reads, autonomous minds trace ancient seas. They’ve learned from storms and broken tries, past years, faint wings on distant tides. The map resets, the cables hum, until the deep decides to come.

Chorus
Raise your hands to the thunder in the sky, world on fire, world alive. From ashes, oaths, to oceans wide, we ride the dark, we find the light. If the night throws sparks in our eyes, we turn it up and amplify. Hearts like drums, we won’t divide— one riff, one roar, one tide.
Verse 5 – New Year’s World
Kiribati wakes the spinning sphere, Auckland, Sydney, bright and clear. On Sydney’s stones, a menorah glows, for shattered hearts from recent blows. Tokyo, Seoul, Hong Kong blaze, Bangkok, Dubai, Paris raise. London’s haze and New York’s square, confetti prayers in winter air. A candle climbs the monument tall, a nation’s long-year vow for all. Syria breathes a different dawn, while wars still march and carry on.

Verse 6 – Bulgaria and the Euro
A new coin joins the circle’s spin, the lev steps out, the euro in. Frankfurt lights salute the fold, another story, old made bold. Some fear prices riding high, others see the common sky. Radev calls it final stride, wishing people chose the ride. Two tags share the market shelf, till one voice speaks for itself.

Final Chorus and Ending
Raise your hands to the thunder in the sky, world on fire, world alive. From ashes, oaths, to oceans wide, we ride the dark, we find the light. If the night throws sparks in our eyes, we turn it up and amplify. Hearts like drums, we won’t divide— one riff, one roar, one tide. Guitars like fireworks, drums like rain, through cities, churches, vows, and pain— we light the bridge, we chart the wave, we crown the dawn with all we gave. Turn it louder, shake the night, ’til quiet truths break into sight— one world burning, one world bright, we are the spark, we are the fight.
