Shoot The Core (Aircraft Carrier) - Gradius Rocks!

+ Show full styles

[Intro] (Heavy synthesizer) (Drums kick in hard - heavy snare)

[Verse 1]
(Male Vocals - Gritty)
Out in the stars, a shadow descends
A giant of metal, I can't see its end
It’s blocking the path, it fills up my screen 
A blue glowing heart in a fighting machine

(Female Vocals - Clean, high reverb)
Up. Down. High. Low. It moves to the beat.
Up. Down. High. Low. No chance for retreat.

[Pre-Chorus]
(Male Vocals) Four lasers fire!
(Female Vocals) Dodge the light!
(Male Vocals) They fire and they fire
(Female Vocals) Don't let them bite
(Both) Chip away the barriers, turn the heart red
One mistake now and the mission is dead!

[Chorus] 
(Both - Anthemic, Power Harmony)
SHOOT THE CORE! Break the shield, hear the monster scream! 
SHOOT THE CORE!  Kill the beast, take your shot, it's not a dream!
Dodge the fire, be the law
Make it count! SHOOT THE CORE!

[Verse 2]
(Male Vocals)
The pattern repeats, it’s locked in a loop
Four beams of death, each set on their route
The shields are fading, starting to glow
My shots hit their mark, it's heartbeat drops low

(Female Vocals - Staccato, punchy) Fire. Move. Fire. Move. Get into the rhythm. Fire. Move. Fire. Move. Crack the algorithm.

[Pre-Chorus]
(Male Vocals) The barriers are breaking!
(Female Vocals) The heart turns to red
(Male Vocals) THE BARRIERS ARE BREAKING!
(Female Vocals) Keep shooting ahead
(Both) Chip away the barrier, strip away the steel
Show the evil empire exactly how you feel!

[Chorus]
(Both - Anthemic, Power Harmony)
SHOOT THE CORE! Break the shield, hear the monster scream! 
SHOOT THE CORE!  Kill the beast, take your shot, it's not a dream!
Dodge the fire, be the law
Make it count! SHOOT THE CORE!

[Guitar Solo] (High pitched, shredding 80s tapping solo over the "Aircraft Carrier" bassline)

[Bridge]
(Music drops to just bass and drums - building tension)

[Final Chorus] (Full Energy - Double Time Drums)
SHOOT THE CORE! (Shoot it down, shoot it down!)
SHOOT THE CORE!  (Shoot the core, shoot the core!)
Dodge the fire, be the law
TAKE THE SHOT!
SHOOT! THE! CORE!

[Outro]
(fades to quiet) shoot the core shoot the core shoot the core
