Written in direct response to The US/Israel coordinated airstrikes on Iran beginning February 28, 2026: the killing of Khamenei, Natanz bombed, Kharg Island obliterated, Iranian retaliation, and the human cost of 2,300 dead across a dozen countries in 17 days. The lyrics weave in verified details — February 28, 2026; Over 2,300 killed across a dozen countries in 17 days; Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei killed in strikes. Majik delivers the report through hip-hop, letting the data hit as hard as the beat. Lines like "February twenty-eighth, the sky went white over Tehran" anchor the track in specifics that generic coverage misses. The mood — dark, urgent, accusatory — reflects the emotional reality behind the numbers. Every Majik's Studio news track exists to make you feel the story, not just read it.
[verse 1]
February twenty-eighth, the sky went white over Tehran
Coordinated strikes, US and Israel, that was the plan
Pentagon said surgical, but surgical don't mean clean
Natanz facility hit, IAEA confirmed the scene
Entrance sealed with rubble, centrifuges buried deep
But the fallout from the blast is something no one's gonna sweep
Khamenei was in the compound when the bunker-busters came
Supreme leader sixty years of power, ended in a flame
Twelve countries caught the shrapnel, from the Gulf to Lebanon
Every bomb they dropped created ten more to respond
Israel hit the presidential building, bricks to dust
Supreme National Security Council, nothing left to trust
They called it Epic Fury, wrote it up like it's a game
But twenty-three hundred people dead, somebody say their names
Six Americans went down in western Iraq that night
Refueling plane caught fire, six coffins on the flight
[chorus]
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Bombs over Tehran, chaos at the border
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Twenty-three hundred dead, the world's disorder
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Fury on the horizon, nothing's in order
[verse 2]
Trump at the podium grinning, Kharg Island, quote, obliterated
Oil infrastructure gone, the Persian Gulf contaminated
Then he laughed and told reporters, might go back just for fun
Like a billion-dollar airstrike is a joke when you're the one
Who never had to fly the sortie, never felt the heat
Never scraped a body off a bombed-out city street
Iran fired back with everything, missiles on Tel Aviv
US bases in the Gulf lit up, did you believe
They wouldn't retaliate? They wouldn't swing back hard?
Shahed drones hit Fujairah, UAE oil yards on fire
Every escalation ladder, we keep climbing higher
Israel says three weeks more, minimum they'll fight
Three more weeks of bombing, three more weeks of night
[chorus]
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Bombs over Tehran, chaos at the border
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Twenty-three hundred dead, the world's disorder
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Fury on the horizon, nothing's in order
[verse 3]
Natanz was supposed to be the line nobody'd cross
International law, nonproliferation, all of it tossed
IAEA confirmed the damage, cameras went dark
Now every nation with a program's thinking, better build an ark
Because the rules don't matter when the superpowers decide
That your sovereignty's a target and there's nowhere left to hide
Twelve countries bleeding, from the Tigris to the shore
Yemen, Syria, Iraq, all proxies in this war
But the proxies are just people, families in the rubble
Every precision strike creates a lifetime of trouble
Pentagon briefing says we're winning, metrics looking great
But the mothers in the morgues don't care about your hit rate
Six crew members, American, their names we barely know
A refueling plane in darkness, western Iraq below
They signed up for the service, not for someone's ego trip
Now their families fold a flag and try to get a grip
[chorus]
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Bombs over Tehran, chaos at the border
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Twenty-three hundred dead, the world's disorder
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Fury on the horizon, nothing's in order
[verse 4]
Seventeen days of war and what exactly have we gained?
A dead supreme leader but the whole region's in flames
Oil markets in a panic, alliances are frayed
Every diplomat we had got sidelined or betrayed
The new supreme leader vowed revenge, eternal fight
So we killed one and created something worse that night
Fujairah burning, tankers halted in the strait
The architects of fury never calculate the weight
Of a war that has no exit, just a deeper hole to dig
While the generals draw arrows and the politicians rig
The narrative to sound like we're the heroes of this tale
But the twenty-three hundred ghosts are telling a different tale
Epic Fury was the code name, epic failure is the truth
And we're sending it to history with the blood of our youth
[chorus]
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Bombs over Tehran, chaos at the border
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Twenty-three hundred dead, the world's disorder
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Fury on the horizon, nothing's in order
[bridge]
I keep seeing the footage, Natanz in the smoke
Kharg Island burning, and they treat it like a joke
Six Americans in coffins draped in red and white and blue
Who gave the order? I'm asking, I'm asking you
[chorus]
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Bombs over Tehran, chaos at the border
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Twenty-three hundred dead, the world's disorder
Who gave the order? Who gave the order?
Fury on the horizon, nothing's in order
[outro]
February twenty-eighth, remember that date
The day they called it fury and they sealed our fate
Who gave the order?
Who gave the order?
