[INTRO - LIVE SHOW] [SFX: Crowd slowly building] [SFX: Gavel banging] [SFX: Echoing footsteps] [SFX: Arena ambience] [CROWD] Yeahhh! He's up! Yeahhh! Represent! [ANNOUNCER] Ladies and gentlemen... The debate is set. Two different regimes. Two heavy weight contenders. One unforgettable face-off. The Italian-American Coalition... Versus the Kremlin. [CROWD] YEAHHHH! VOTE! LET'S GO! [INTRO MUSIC RISING] [SFX: Bass rumble] [ANNOUNCER] Take the podium! [BEAT DROP] [ITALIAN-AMERICAN - VERSE 1] Yeah! We stand in the chamber with the laws on our side, Generations of dreaming, with our ancestors' pride! You rule with a hammer, but your fortress will fall, We bring the Constitution, and liberty for all! Uh! From the streets of New York, to the Washington domes, We built up this promise in our hearts and our homes! You got oligarch money, keeping people in chains, But the fire of the vote is what forever remains! Woah! Checks and balances holding, check the balance of power, The voice of the people rising up in this hour! No dictator reigns here, no permanent crown, We can vote you on up, and we can vote you right down! [AD-LIBS] Yeah! Uh! That's law! Let's go! [KREMLIN - VERSE 1] Yeah! Red stars on the towers, and the cold winter wind, We write our own history where your rules have to end! You talk about freedom, but your system is weak, While I speak with the power that the decades will keep! Uh! Built a kingdom of steel from the snow and the dust, You rely on a ballot, but we rule with no trust! One leader, one vision, making laws on my own, While you bicker in congress, I am locked on my throne! Woah! Yeah! [CROWD] OHHHH! [BEAT SWITCH] [SFX: Industrial sirens rising] [SFX: Crowd chanting] [ANNOUNCER] Round two! [CROWD] LET'S GO! [ITALIAN-AMERICAN - VERSE 2] Yeah! Look at our cities where the press can speak free, Italian-American grit, shaping history! You lock up the truth, and you silence the press, But the strength of a republic is what clears up the mess! Uh! La Famiglia, the nation, we believe in the state, Where the people decide on their president's fate! You can hold a fake vote, but we see through the game, A dictator's shadow always ends up the same! [AD-LIBS] Yeah! Woah! Speak up! No chains! [KREMLIN - VERSE 2] Yeah! Your republic is chaotic, always split in a fight, While my iron grip rules through the day and the night! No opposition standing, I have cleared out the floor, In the heart of the Kremlin, I have locked every door! Uh! You can call it control, but I call it the plan, To secure all the borders of a powerful land! Your freedom is messy, it will fall in the cold, While my empire stands, and my grip will still hold! [CROWD] OH! YEAHHHH! DECIDE! [FINAL ROUND] [SFX: Beat slows] [SFX: Ticking clock] [SFX: Crowd getting quiet] [ANNOUNCER - LOW] One final statement... [ITALIAN-AMERICAN] Yeah... We choose our path, Democracy will guide. The power's in our hands, With nothing left to hide. [KREMLIN] Yeah... I hold the reins, The iron will remains. I rule above the law, And break your paper chains. [ITALIAN-AMERICAN] Power to the votes... [KREMLIN] Power to the state... [ITALIAN-AMERICAN] The people decide... [KREMLIN] I dictate our fate! [BOTH] CHOOSE! [FINAL BEAT DROP] [BOTH] YEAHHHH! WOAH! CHOOSE! NOW! [CROWD] YEAHHHHHHHH! [SFX: Huge bass] [SFX: Gavel bang] [SFX: Crowd cheering] [ANNOUNCER] The stage goes dark... But the freedom survives. [CROWD] YEAHHH! VOTE! LET'S GOOOO! [OUTRO] [SFX: Rain falling] [SFX: Footsteps fading] [AD-LIB - DISTANT] Yeah... Vote... Freedom...
