[Verse 1] Ten million dollar advance, the pages hit the press, "Promise Me, America" — out the seventeenth, no less. He's defending the run, the pullout, the economy's climb, calling critics wrong on age, on Kabul, on the price of time. Headline calls it unapologetic, and yeah, that part rings true — he won't say sorry for running, won't admit the choice was askew. [Chorus] Обіцяй мені, Америко — promise never dies, scant contrition in the pages, few apologies, no lies. Мало каяття, мало слів прощення, just a man and his memory, writing his defense. [Verse 2] But the headline skips a line, so here's what got left behind — he calls that debate night "one of the lowest" in his mind. Told People magazine, if the cancer had been known, he would've walked away then, left the office, gone back home. That's the contrition, small but it's printed on the page — not every battle lost gets buried in the rage. [Chorus] Обіцяй мені, Америко — promise never dies, scant contrition in the pages, few apologies, no lies. Мало каяття, мало слів прощення, just a man and his memory, writing his defense. [Verse 3] Meanwhile Harris wrote her own book, a sharper kind of lens, calls the choice to stay in "recklessness" — no softened sentence. Jill Biden said she feared a stroke watching her husband speak, the room went cold, the polling dropped, his coalition weak. [Verse 4] Biden points at Pelosi now, says she worked the phones, pushed delegates to defect while he sat all alone. Nancy hasn't answered — not a word, not a sound, Lindy Li warns the book will reopen wounds not yet unbound. November seventeenth it drops, but the chemo sets the pace, few interviews ahead, cancer slowing his embrace. [Verse 5] The publishers are betting on the pull of his own name, a legacy reframed before the history books lay blame. Some call it vanity, some call it one last fight, a old man at the podium still reaching for the light. The staffers who stood by him now whisper different tales, of a White House built on silence while the engine slowly fails. And still he writes the chapters like a captain at the helm, steering through the storm he swears he didn't overwhelm. [Bridge] Recklessness or courage — who decides which one is true? История пишется, history's still overdue. Pelosi's silence speaks in its own peculiar tongue, while the party braces for the chapters still unsung. [Chorus] Обіцяй мені, Америко — promise never dies, мало слів вибачення, hidden in his eyes, just contrition, just defense, printed black and white — Promise Me, America, hits the shelves tonight. [Outro] Few concessions, lots of rebuttal, that's how it's designed — read between the pages, read between the lines. [Chorus] Обіцяй мені, Америко — promise never dies, scant contrition in the pages, few apologies, no lies. Мало каяття, мало слів прощення, just a man and his memory, writing his defense.
