Sirens, Storms and Shadows
Verse 1 — Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia
Night burned over Kharkiv, drones like crows in a storm, Zaporizhzhia shuddered, concrete twisted and torn. A child in the crosswind, homes left without heat, Shopping streets in splinters, dust in every street. Radio claims the invaders bleed and bend, While whispers set a table under Gulf sun for peace to mend.

Chorus
Sirens in the night, thunder in our veins, Borders cut in fire, cities drown in rain. Hold the line of truth, light a freer flame, We won’t go quiet, we won’t be tamed.
Verse 2 — Brazil Floods
In Minas the rain drums war beats on tin and tile, Juiz de Fora, Ubá, swallowed mile by mile. Houses slide like secrets, mud at every door, Bernardo lost to waters we were warned about before. Hope turns thin where sirens fade to seam, And over Andean valleys, neighbors face the same dream.

Chorus
Sirens in the night, thunder in our veins, Borders cut in fire, cities drown in rain. Hold the line of truth, light a freer flame, We won’t go quiet, we won’t be tamed.
Verse 3 — US-Iran Talks
In Geneva rooms, words circle like jets, Oman holds the middle, tallying the bets. One side wants the lock and an endless key, The other swears no bomb, keeps spinning quietly. A cooling on the table, old embers to still, Briefings sharpen options, stealth wings fueled and chill. A vow from the podium: no dragged-out campaign, But vows are only paper in a steel-gray rain.

Chorus
Sirens in the night, thunder in our veins, Borders cut in fire, cities drown in rain. Hold the line of truth, light a freer flame, We won’t go quiet, we won’t be tamed.
Verse 4 — Cuba Shootout
Off Falcones waters, engines cut the black, A speedboat meets a searchlight, then rifles answer back. Havana says they fired first, a captain hit and down, Vests and burning bottles hidden near the prow. Some names on a list the watchers already know, Washington starts asking, and tensions start to grow. The straits feel narrower when oil lines are squeezed, Salt keeps its secrets that the waves won’t release.

Chorus
Sirens in the night, thunder in our veins, Borders cut in fire, cities drown in rain. Hold the line of truth, light a freer flame, We won’t go quiet, we won’t be tamed.
Verse 5 — Rev. Jesse Jackson
Chicago lines in winter, hearts linked in the cold, Rainbow PUSH is open, stories brave and bold. King’s student, ballot preacher, justice in his tone, Ran for the summit, made the fight his own. From Carolina roots to the capital’s bright dome, Invitations crossing aisles to bring his spirit home.

Chorus

Verse 6 — Clinton Testimony
Behind closed doors they cornered her with ghosts, She said no flights, no islands, no to the host. Called the questions circus, demanded daylight in, Said the chase just shields another leader’s sin. Chairmen call it useful, a leak chills the halls, Another Clinton waiting just beyond those walls.

Final Chorus + Ending
Sirens in the night, thunder in our veins, Borders cut in fire, cities drown in rain. Hold the line of truth, light a freer flame, We won’t go quiet, we won’t be tamed. Raise the amps to sunrise, let the feedback sing, If the world keeps pounding, let the people ring. From rubble, rain, and rumor to the streets we claim, Turn it up, tear it down—call the future by its name!
