[Verse 1] November first, the news comes soft like Rhodes keys ringing low, Erdogan's on the wire, says both sides gotta let the Black Sea go, Stop the strikes on tankers, stop the smoke on the horizon line, His foreign minister Fidan's warning this could spill past the sign, Calls it a deal or a widening, no room left to stall, Ankara's playing referee between Kyiv and the Kremlin wall. [Chorus] Black Sea waters holding secrets, mines like teeth beneath the foam, Diplomats keep dialing numbers, families keep finding home, Five hundred Patriots greenlit, Moscow's warned of what's to come, Every headline's just a heartbeat in a war that won't stay numb. [Verse 2] Down beneath that water, dolphins floating pale and still, Casualties the maps don't count, bodies the tide won't fill, Naval mines just drifting blind, nobody claims the blame, Al Jazeera calls it what it is — the sea's not the same, Trade routes tangled, fishermen grounded, the coastline holds its breath, Ecosystem drowning quiet in a war that smells like death. [Verse 3] Meanwhile at the border crossing, a woman drops her bags, Years stuck in Oleshky, now she's running toward her dad, BBC caught the hug, the kind that cameras can't rehearse, Zelenskyy calls it simple — says the whole world needs this verse, "A lesson," that's his word choice, watch displacement, watch it end, Civilians crossed to safety, let that story be the trend. [Bridge] Canada's leaning toward Washington's whisper, "mass casualty" the phrase, Warning aimed at Moscow through the diplomatic haze, While the Pentagon approves the sale, five hundred interceptors tall, Steel going east as the water keeps erasing lives and all. [Verse 4] Grain ships stranded in Odesa, silos full but nowhere bound, Global markets watch the harbor, prices rising without sound, Insurance rates on cargo climbing, captains scared to roll the dice, A tanker's hull can hide a message written cold in frozen ice, Farmers half a world away feel tremors from this distant shore, Every empty hold at port is just the echo of this war, And still the convoys wait for safe passage through the haze, While generals trade their numbers like it's just another phase. [Chorus] Black Sea waters holding secrets, mines like teeth beneath the foam, Diplomats keep dialing numbers, families keep finding home, Five hundred Patriots greenlit, Moscow's warned of what's to come, Every headline's just a heartbeat in a war that won't stay numb. [Outro] Turkiye's calling, borders crossing, dolphins sinking out of sight, November first in black and white — the ledger of this fight, Every wave that hits the shoreline carries names we'll never know, Written in the salt and silence of a sea that used to glow.
