"The Titanic Sails at Dawn" is a bold, satirical anthem chronicling the ideological wreckage left in the wake of radical leftist policies. With biting lyrics and a steady, ominous rhythm, the song charts a doomed voyage through open borders, gender denial, and speech suppression—all while those at the helm remain defiantly proud. As the ship of progress barrels toward an iceberg marked WOKE, the chorus warns: no lifeboats remain, and the dance is nearly over. It's a musical broadside aimed at the unsinkable arrogance of our age.

The Titanic sails at dawn

Verse 1 You opened up the borders, thought it fine 
Every day you always cross the line 
You insisted and persisted getting it all wrong 
Blind to the disaster 
The Titanic sails at dawn 

Verse 2 Your policies are always out of sorts 
Insisting that men play in women’s sports
Looking for another fight 
No brains but always brawn 
Never seek the middle ground 
The Titanic sails at dawn 

Chorus Headed for an iceberg, no more time to turn around 
You called it unsinkable, but now you’re going down 
No more lifeboats left for you, just one last hollow stance 
Face the storm you summoned—this is your final dance 

Verse 3 You shout for justice, yet embrace the horde 
Terror flies its banners while you’re calling it "the norm" 
Censor all dissenters, that’s your favorite song 
But the cold sea waits for tyrants—the Titanic sails at dawn 

Bridge 
On your maiden voyage, with your woke and baseless crowd 
Tore down every pillar, let the lunacy resound
You mock the past and virtue   set fire to the gate
Now the pride you sailed on, is sinking under weight 

Verse (Instrumental Break) 

Chorus Headed for an iceberg, no more time to turn around 
You called it unsinkable, but now you’re going down 
No more lifeboats left for you, just one last hollow stance 
Face the storm you summoned—this is your final dance 

Final Verse 
Darkness fills the waters, as your dream slips out of sight 
All that you have built now clearly crumbles in the night 
You ignored the warnings, now the reckoning is drawn 
History won’t forget you—The Titanic sails at dawn
