Shadows Courage

Shadow’s Courage"

Verse 1

There’s a ghost I’ve never met, but he haunts my mind,

A shadow waiting, just biding his time.

He wears my face, but his eyes don’t blink,

He’s the part of me that dares to think.

He whispers low, “You need my fire,

To take the shot, to rise higher.”

Chorus

Alter ego, step into the light,

Lend me your courage, your thirst to fight.

I need your strength, I need your flame,

For one last chance to stake my name.

Verse 2

I’ve got the ball, but the weight’s too much,

My hands shake hard, I lose my touch.

He steps beside me, calm and cold,

“Give me the reins, let the moment unfold.”

He’s not my friend, but he’s what I need,

To take the shot and plant the seed.

Chorus

Alter ego, rise and roar,

Carry me through, break down the door.

I need your strength, your fearless frame,

For one last shot to change the game.

Bridge

The ghost and I, we’re bound in time,

A fleeting alliance, a borrowed spine.

He takes the wheel, just for the ride,

Then slips away, back to the other side.

Verse 3

I’ll thank him later, but not today,

Right now, I need him to clear the way.

He’s my edge, my spark, my drive,

The ghost in the mirror that keeps me alive.

For when the stakes are high, and fear consumes,

He’s the fire that breaks the fumes.

Chorus

Alter ego, burn so bright,

Guide my hand, aim the fight.

One moment’s strength, one fleeting flame,

To take the ball and win the game.

Outro

When it’s done, he’ll fade from view,

But the courage he lent will see me through.

Alter ego, my shadowed friend,

You’re the fire I’ll call again.
