I don't need crowds to say my name
I don't need glory, I don't need flame
While they argue ideals and pride
I decide who stands, who aligns
No speeches carved in stone
Just signatures that turn to bones
You won't feel the moment you lose–
You'll wake up inside what I choose

I don't shout, I don't command
I move the table, not the man
If every option leads to me
You'll call it fate, not strategy

No flags in the air, no songs to sing
Just iron moving everything
You don't fight what you can't see
You don't rebel against necessity
I don't conquer hearts or land
I conquer systems, wire to hand
When the world clicks into place
You won't know when you lost your space

They call it peace when guns go quiet
I call it leverage, perfectly timed
Every crisis is an opening door
Every ally a future war
I don't hate, I don't believe
I don't bleed for what I achieve
Emotion clouds the final draft–
I cut it out and do the math

I don't break nations, I bind them tight
Make dependence feel polite
By the time you say this feels wrong
The structure's been standing too long

No flags in the air, no songs to sing
Just iron moving everything
You don't fight what you can't see
You don't rebel against necessity
I don't conquer hearts or land
I conquer systems, wire to hand
When the world clicks into place
You won't know when you lost your space

This isn't tyranny
This is administration
You don't obey me–
You function

No fire, no fear, no screams, no blood
Just order dressed as common good
If the machine keeps running clean
No one asks what it means
I don't need statues, I don't need praise
Just stability that never shakes
Empires don't fall with sound or flame–
They lock in place
And stay

Power doesn't always march
Sometimes
It files paperwork
