Sirens, Sanctions & Shadow Games
Verse 1 — Ukraine
Cold bells ring from Brussels to the blue UN, Flags at half, names carved in the wind again. A nation holds the line through iron skies, With families torn and scattered far as trains can ride. Leaders walk the streets of Kyiv, heads high, London loads its blacklist, aiming at the oil tide. Peace talks crack and echo on a frozen line, Yet candles burn, defying night with spines of pine.

Chorus
Headlines roar, the world’s on fire, Steel-winged shadows, courtroom choirs. We carry hope through smoke and wire, Raise your voice, turn it higher. When the ground shakes under heavy names, We won’t bow to the shadow games. Storms may howl, but we’ll remain— Hearts like drums in the driving rain.
Verse 2 — Mexico
In the pines of Jalisco the hillside shook, An iron ring closed in, and the kingpin fell from the book. Engines burned and highways choked with flame, Across the map they answered to a fallen name. Tourists grounded as the skies turned red, Coast to cathedral, people ran and bled. Now stadiums wait while the city holds its breath, Can a ball still roll where the streets have tasted death?

Chorus
Headlines roar, the world’s on fire, Steel-winged shadows, courtroom choirs. We carry hope through smoke and wire, Raise your voice, turn it higher. When the ground shakes under heavy names, We won’t bow to the shadow games. Storms may howl, but we’ll remain— Hearts like drums in the driving rain.
Verse 3 — Iran
A fleet of thunder shifts to desert light, Talks go dark, and the runway meets the night. Briefings in the halls before the speech is sung, Whispers of a strike on everyone’s tongue. Tehran calls the warnings ghost and smoke, Says choose your path—olive branch or iron stroke. Somewhere in the air, a fuse is half-alight, While mothers scan the sky and pray it stays tight.

Chorus
Headlines roar, the world’s on fire, Steel-winged shadows, courtroom choirs. We carry hope through smoke and wire, Raise your voice, turn it higher. When the ground shakes under heavy names, We won’t bow to the shadow games. Storms may howl, but we’ll remain— Hearts like drums in the driving rain.
Verse 4 — Tariffs
The gavel fell on a president’s reach, High bench carved a limit in the breach. Robes wrote that emergency can’t tax the earth, And the echo rattled markets for all it’s worth. But a pen flashed again with a different law, A blanket duty pulled with a brand-new claw. Now traders count the scars, and rivals grin, While voices call the cash back in.

Chorus
Headlines roar, the world’s on fire, Steel-winged shadows, courtroom choirs. We carry hope through smoke and wire, Raise your voice, turn it higher. When the ground shakes under heavy names, We won’t bow to the shadow games. Storms may howl, but we’ll remain— Hearts like drums in the driving rain.
Verse 5 — Former Prince Andrew
On a winter birthday, blue lights found a lord, Cuffs on a title, questions on a sword. They’re asking if a envoy’s secret streams Flowed to a fallen tycoon’s private schemes. He walked out under cloud, case still in flight, A king said the law must choose the light. Centuries since a crown felt this cold, Now marble halls tremble at the story told.

Verse 6 — Peter Mandelson
Another name from London’s polished stone, Charged with shadows he may have sown. Did crisis-time whispers cross the line, Feeding a ghost with market signs? Once a friend in letters long after shame, Now freed on bond but tied to his name. Cabinet doors remember every key, And truth keeps knocking endlessly.

Final Chorus + Ending
Headlines roar, the world’s on fire, Steel-winged shadows, courtroom choirs. We carry hope through smoke and wire, Raise your voice, turn it higher. Turn it up—let the jet trails fade, Let the gavel fall where the truth is laid. From border lines to palace gates, From factory floors to city grates, We’re not afraid, we won’t be tamed— No more bowing to shadow games. Guitars like sirens, hearts untamed, We light the night—remember the names! Hey! Hey! Raise it higher— Through storm and smoke, we burn like wire!
