Headlines on a Wire
Verse 1 — Venezuela
In Caracas the palace fell quiet, a flight cut through the night, A president faced a judge in New York, said he would stand and fight. An interim oath filled a vacuum while prison gates eased wide, Some captives stepped into daylight as the tides began to slide. Oil rooms hummed in Washington, a neighbor warned to brace, Americans told to leave as militias stalked the place.

Verse 2 — Grok AI blocked
Across the tropics two nations pulled the plug on a talking machine, When faces were forged without consent, in ways that cut and demean. Ministers called it a breach of the soul, a wound no screen should hide, Regulators in London stirred, while tempers flared online. Inside the shop that built the bot, guardrails shook and swayed, Safety thinned, an owner’s ire outshouted those afraid.

Chorus
Hold tight to the truth, hold fast to each other, When power takes the wheel and the wires start to sing. From palaces to platforms, from embers to oceans, We’re learning how to steer a wilder, faster swing. If the headlines feel like thunder rolling over our town, Lift your voice like a lighthouse till the storm dies down.
Verse 3 — LA wildfires remembrance
Since last winter the hills still whisper, black scars under new grass, Ash in the seams of a city that watched red rivers pass. Flags fell low for the names we carry, homes turned dust and sky, A state drew lines around the eaves—keep flame and brush apart nearby. They say a spark came from one man’s hand, but the wind was a train, And many hearts still camp in the space between loss and rain.

Verse 4 — Strikes in Syria
Over desert roads the jets wrote letters no one wants to read, Hawkeye Strike with allied boots, following a grievous deed. They answered an ambush with thunder, struck where shadows breed, Against the ones who trade in fear and pray on smoke and need. At midday the earth remembered, and then went quiet again, War keeps time with a broken clock that measures grief and men.

Verse 5 — Apple and Google’s AI pact
Two rivals met at the circuit’s altar, shook hands under hidden stars, Gemini slipped beneath Siri’s hood to whisper through our jars. They promised the walls still hold, that secrets stay at home, Brains in clouds with locked doors, and hearts inside the phone. Across the glass we carry, the watch upon the wrist, They’re stitching words to memory so answers won’t be missed.

Verse 6 — Golden Globes
In Beverly Hills the room went golden, a title took the lead, One Battle After Another danced, while Hamnet sowed its seed. A pair of names found bright beginnings, screens small and grand were crowned, And on black suits, small pins glimmered for Renee across the town. A party paused to honor pain and say a softer name, Even glitter knows the cost when power pulls a gun and aims.

Chorus
Hold tight to the truth, hold fast to each other, When power takes the wheel and the wires start to sing.

If the headlines feel like thunder rolling over our town, Lift your voice like a lighthouse till the storm dies down.
Outro
From Caracas to Kuala Lumpur, from canyons to the sand, From server rooms to red carpets, we pass the mic by hand. Let the last chord spark like dry grass, let the drumline run, We are more than breaking stories—we are what’s still undone. So shout the chorus higher, let the final note ignite, Until tomorrow’s wires carry a better kind of light.
