Whose Hands Steer Fear

[Verse 1]
A map lies open under glass,
Red pencil marks where borders pass.
The evening anchor names the threat,
But leaves the questions unanswered yet.

[Pre-Chorus]
Who signs the order? Who pays the price?
Who turns a warning into advice?

[Chorus]
Tell me whose hands are steering fear,
Whose quiet bargains brought us here.
If peace is still a door we can defend,
Ask who profits when the talks all end.

[Verse 2]
Behind the podium, polished and bright,
A careful phrase can sharpen a fight.
The mother waiting by the phone
Knows none of this was hers to own.

[Pre-Chorus]
Who counts the losses? Who writes the frame?
Who calls it duty, who names the blame?

[Chorus]
Tell me whose hands are steering fear,
Whose quiet bargains brought us here.
If peace is still a door we can defend,
Ask who profits when the talks all end.

[Bridge]
Not every claim is truth because it’s loud,
Not every doubt belongs to any crowd.
Read every record, question every side,
Keep room for facts before we choose a side.

[Final Chorus]
Tell me whose hands are steering fear,
Demand the answers, make them clear.
If peace is still a door we can defend,
Ask who profits when the talks all end.

[Outro]
Ask who profits when the talks all end.
