Blood and Shield

[Intro]

“He’s not the same man… not anymore.”

[Verse 1]

Carved from flags and broken bones

A ghost that bleeds red, white, unknown

From ice to war, reborn through pain

No peace for men engraved in chains

I carry death behind the crest

Justice branded in my chest

Time forgot, but I remain

A soldier sharpened in disdain

[Pre-Chorus]

Stand — fight — bleed — fall

Shield is fate — I take it all

[Chorus]

Blood on the shield — never wiped clean

I march alone through every scream

Heart of the war — forged to defy

Born to bleed, too proud to die

[Verse 2]

Serum veins and severed trust

My country rusts, my morals crush

Friend to none, command to all

I watched the best of brothers fall

Truth is dead, the stars betrayed

Now I haunt what hope once made

Shield in hand, spine of steel

Rage beneath the wound I seal

[Bridge]

Throw the shield — and bring it back

Break the line — and cut the flak

Nothing left — but grit and scars

My freedom’s forged through endless wars

[Final Chorus]

Blood on the shield — I still believe

In shattered oaths and hearts that grieve

I fight for ghosts that won’t retreat

I am the march — I am the beat

[Outro]

“Till the end of the line…”
