[Intro – spoken, deep voice]
“Why the mask?” she asked…
“…to hide my face.”
[Verse 1]
I walk in silence, shadows on my back,
Camouflage my soul, I can’t ever crack.
Blood on my gloves, secrets in my chest,
Every mission’s heavy, but I never rest.
From Manchester streets to the deserts at night,
I lost my family, but I kept the fight.
I bury my pain under skull and flame,
I’m Ghost, no mercy, remember the name.
[Hook – aggressive, rhythmic]
Behind the mask, I bleed, I breathe,
I fight for the fallen, I don’t retreat.
Price and Soap, my brothers in arms,
In this warzone life, there’s no alarms.
Behind the mask, I’m flesh, I’m bone,
But in the field, I’m steel, I’m stone.
Call me Ghost, I’ll haunt your sight,
I strike from the dark, then fade in the night.
[Verse 2]
I’ve seen betrayal, I’ve seen men lie,
I’ve carried their bodies, I watched them die.
Night vision green through a shattered glass,
One wrong step, and you won’t last.
No medals for me, no glory parade,
Just scars on my skin from the choices I made.
She asked me once why I wear this face,
“‘Cause ghosts like me… don’t leave a trace.”
[Hook – darker, heavier beat]
Behind the mask, I bleed, I breathe,
I fight for the fallen, I don’t retreat.
Price and Soap, my brothers in arms,
In this warzone life, there’s no alarms.
Behind the mask, I’m flesh, I’m bone,
But in the field, I’m steel, I’m stone.
Call me Ghost, I’ll haunt your sight,
I strike from the dark, then fade in the night.
[Bridge – whispered, echo effect]
Shadows follow me…
Bullets call my name…
Ghosts never die…
We live through the pain.
[Verse 3 – final, intense build-up]
I don’t fear death, I’ve faced it twice,
Sacrificed blood, I paid that price.
Task Force 141, we move as one,
Until the war’s over, the fight ain’t done.
So when you see the skull, don’t pray, don’t run,
The reaper already chose, your time has come.
Ghost in the dark, I vanish, I stay,
You’ll never forget the mask in the gray.
[Final Hook – explosive drop]
Behind the mask, I bleed, I breathe,
I fight for the fallen, I don’t retreat.
Price and Soap, my brothers in arms,
In this warzone life, there’s no alarms.
Behind the mask, I’m flesh, I’m bone,
But in the field, I’m steel, I’m stone.
Call me Ghost, I’ll haunt your sight,
I strike from the dark, then fade in the night.
[Outro – fading voice]
Ghosts never die…
We just live in the fight.
