Couldn't Be John Wick

(Intro-Heavy Guitar Riff) (Verse 1) In the shadows of the darkest night Smoke and gunshots, my battlefield A trembling echo deep inside my chest The phantom called “John Wick” They say he haunts our rival crew A legend—does he even exist? No one’s seen him, no one really knows But secretly, I dreamed of being him (Chorus) I couldn’t be John Wick No matter how I aimed, how I tried His steely gaze, his iron will I could never reach that far I couldn’t be John Wick Missing something I’ll never hold And in this last, fading breath I finally understand (Verse 2) The storm of gunfire rages around me My comrades fall one by one And when I stand alone on this empty ground A shadow appears—could that be him? A tall figure just a glimpse in the dark Looking down with eyes so cold And in that instant, my chest ignites “If you see John Wick, it’s the end,” I know (Chorus) I couldn’t be John Wick The deadly power in his gaze and hands That cold command of fate itself I could never reach that far I couldn’t be John Wick And now this dream fades with me In this final moment I realize I’m just another shadow (Guitar Solo) (Bridge) The fire fades in my trembling heart As he vanishes like a ghost “I wish I could have been like him,” I thought But it was all just a fantasy (Chorus) I couldn’t be John Wick The shadow I glimpsed beyond the smoke To live as he lives was never mine And I fade into the dark I couldn’t be John Wick As the bloodstains slowly fade away No one will remember my name Just a nameless shadow
