Intro

A flash… a breath… I’m back.
Desert tarmac, silence heavy as a crack.
I’ve seen infinity, walked through the ashes,
But now it’s done… why does the world shake under my lashes?

Verse 1 – Slow, heavy flow

The streets stare at me weird, whispers beneath the porches,
An old man sells chestnuts, whisperin’ my name way too loud.
I left, should’ve stayed gone,
But their eyes weigh me down, like a ghost in the spotlight, gone.

I’m pickin’ it all up, even words I’ve never known,
English, Arabic, Italian from a kid in the zone.
What’s this madness? I’m tuned in, no doubt,
Like the universe’s talkin’ in my scattered thoughts now…

Pre-Chorus – Rising tension, deep beats

I see my reflection, everything seems right,
But in their eyes, there’s a spectral light.
They say it’s me, the one who saved this earth,
But why do I feel the void chillin' my nerves?

Chorus – Powerful, soaring, lost in the light

I’m back... but where the hell am I?
A hero… or just a ghost passing by?
They whisper my name like a prayer,
But I’m lost in this light, it’s too much to bear…

Verse 2 – Faster, more intense rap

Memories hit like storms, bangin' on the door,
A shadowy giant, hand on my forehead, raw.
A word floats: acquitted,
But what am I acquitted from? A changed man, split it?

Back in the hometown, cold gazes stare,
Even my mum hesitates to share.
I’m here… but I’m no longer theirs,
Just a ghost with a glimmer that nobody cares.

Pre-Chorus

My skin sweats blurry truths,
My stare makes the crowds lose their grooves.
They smile but take a step back,
Do they love me... or fear what I lack?

Chorus – Musical explosion, more grandeur

I’m back… but where the hell am I?
A hero… or just a ghost passing by?
They whisper my name like a prayer,
But I’m lost in this light, it’s too much to bear…

Bridge – Spoken word, disillusioned voice

Then the uniform came, too late to cry,
Ambassador, a bridge, ‘twixt two forgotten lives.
I’m neither here, nor over there,
Just an exile chained by their law, unfair.

Outro – Whispered, fade-out, orchestral and tragic

Maybe I saved humanity,
But me… I’m lost for eternity.
