[Intro]
Five seconds to decision, breath held tight
Lockstep heartbeat breaks the night
[Verse 1]
Silence on the line, I read the wind and stone
Crosshairs whisper danger, I can feel it in my bones
Two shadows breathing slow, the clock is chewing time
I measure every move, keep the target in my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
Think like the hunt, act like the seal on steel
Trust the drills, trust the crew, trust what’s real
[Chorus]
In this standoff I stand, steady under flame
Counting sparks and syllables of fear I name
Tension wears me thin, but I won’t blink or fall
I push through the edge, I answer the silent call
[Verse 2]
Draft from the vents, a whisper becomes a plan
I map the room in angles, every shadow acts as scan
Breath in through the mask, exhale through the grit
The sniper’s line shifts slow—my fate rides on each split-second hit
[Pre-Chorus]
Think like the hunt, act like the seal on steel
Trust the drills, trust the crew, trust what’s real
[Chorus]
In this standoff I stand, steady under flame
Counting sparks and syllables of fear I name
Tension wears me thin, but I won’t blink or fall
I push through the edge, I answer the silent call
[Bridge]
If the crate is cracked, is it mercy or a trap?
I weigh the risk, I won’t break, I won’t snap
Hope is a shield I clutch when the noise bites back
Until the line goes clear and daylight finds the track
[Chorus]
In this standoff I stand, steady under flame
Counting sparks and syllables of fear I name
Tension wears me thin, but I won’t blink or fall
I push through the edge, I answer the silent call
[Outro]
Doorframe witness, I exhale and rise
No questions, just method, under wary skies
The echo ends, the room resets to quiet and calm
But I keep the memory of courage pressed in my palm
