[Verse 1]
Foreign ministers speak of drones that fly
Across the Russian border, reaching high
Could pressure Putin's grip, they say with hope
While UN warnings echo down the slope
"Out of control," the peacekeepers cry
As battles rage beneath the eastern sky
[Chorus]
Twenty-eight billion overspent on war
Russia bleeds money from this distant shore
Five hundred thousand souls have paid the price
British intelligence counts the sacrifice
The conflict spirals, costs keep climbing higher
Nations caught within this endless fire
[Verse 2]
Ukraine might breakthrough, analysts predict
But without Western aid, they'd face the strict
Reality of fighting on alone
While Zelenskyy pleads from Kyiv's throne
"Eliminate Putin's last advantage now"
He tells Washington with furrowed brow
[Chorus]
Twenty-eight billion overspent on war
Russia bleeds money from this distant shore
Five hundred thousand souls have paid the price
British intelligence counts the sacrifice
The conflict spirals, costs keep climbing higher
Nations caught within this endless fire
[Verse 3]
Sanctions bite but Moscow finds new ways
To fund the war through shadowed money maze
China watches from the eastern line
While Europe counts the cost of every mine
Mothers weep in villages unknown
For sons who'll never make it safely home
[Bridge]
Chatham House warns of ceasefire's curse
Could make Ukrainian security worse
BBC reports the threats increase
As Moscow blocks the path to peace
Diplomatic channels strain and break
While innocent civilians pay war's sake
[Chorus]
Twenty-eight billion overspent on war
Russia bleeds money from this distant shore
Five hundred thousand souls have paid the price
British intelligence counts the sacrifice
The conflict spirals, costs keep climbing higher
Nations caught within this endless fire
[Outro]
May twenty-ninth, the battle rages on
Another day until the war is gone
History watches what we choose to do
When freedom calls and skies are no longer blue
