August 23, 2024 Newsy Bits Lyrics

In the Paciifc Islands, leaders convene

Facing a polycrisis, troubles unforeseen

Threats aplenty, challenges soar

Yet united they stand, seeking solutions to explore

In the midst of chaos and turmoil's cries

Hope still lingers in the Pacific skies

Together they strive, hand in hand

Facing the storm, playing their hand

A trans woman in Australia, fighting for her right

Ordered compensation, shining a light

Inclusion matters, exclusion no more

Justice prevailing, breaking down the door

In the midst of chaos and turmoil's cries

Hope still lingers in the Pacific skies

Together they strive, hand in hand

Facing the storm, playing their hand

In Indonesia, families seek justice for toxic syrup

Cash payments ordered, a drug-makers wakeup

Volcano erupts near Iceland's Grindavik

Six times since December, the lava did flick

In the midst of chaos and turmoil's cries

Hope still lingers in the Pacific skies

Together they strive, hand in hand

Facing the storm, playing their hand

Modi meets Zelenskyy, a bond is formed

In Kyiv's embrace, unity adorned

Panda Meng Meng brings joy anew

Twins welcomed at Berlin Zoo

In the midst of chaos and turmoil's cries

Hope still lingers in the Pacific skies

Together they strive, hand in hand

Facing the storm, playing their hand

In Russian prison, a life laid down

Hostage situation, sorrow profound

Northern Iraq, casualties in the night

Turkish drone strikes, a devastating sight

In the midst of chaos and turmoil's cries

Hope still lingers in the Pacific skies

Together they strive, hand in hand

Facing the storm, playing their hand
