Gated snare. Wide stereo guitars. Bass counter melodies: G – D – Em – C] This is my moment under the lights, Even if I’m tired of wagin’ the fight.

Atmospheric synth pads (Prophet 5, Omnisphere.

Slides down into a bluesy G–A–B run with attack. Bar 3–4: A melodic phrase: B → D → E → G (ascending), then a slow bend from A → B. This is the I’m still here motif. Bar 5–6: A fast pentatonic burst (E minor box): E–G–A–B–D–E, ending on a sustained G with delay trails. Bar 7–8: A soaring bend from D → E, then a descending melodic line that hands off to Guitar 2.] [GUITAR 2 slide + rhythm hybrid Tone: Open tuned slide shimmer Underneath: rhythm triads with palm muted drive Stereo panned opposite Guitar 1] [Slide part: Bar 1–2: Slide gliss from B → E, shimmering harmonics, answering Guitar 1’s long bend.
