Intro (Smooth reggae rhythm, deep bass, and gentle horns) Oh, the fire is blazin’, the air so tight, Two brothers clash in the red-hot night. The higher you climb, the harder you fall, But I warned you, Anakin, don’t risk it all. Verse 1 You reached for the stars, tried to get so high, But power and fear, they clouded your sky. The smoke is thick, it’s all in your head, You walked on the edge, now you’re hangin’ by a thread. We had the spark, yeah, we had the flame, But you burned it too fast for the sake of a name. I’m grounded in truth, my stance is firm, But the “high” you chased will make you burn. Chorus On the high ground, you can’t touch the sky, You flew too close, now the flames make you cry. On the high ground, where the lava flows, A brother lost, oh, the sorrow grows. Verse 2 You were chasing a high, but it wasn’t the light, Now you’re deep in the smoke, where it’s always night. The fire you sought, it’s no gentle flame, It burns with regret, and it calls your name. I told you, Anakin, don’t take that leap, The high ground’s steady, but the fall is steep. You rose like a king, but you fell like the rest, Now the high you wanted puts your soul to the test. Chorus On the high ground, you can’t touch the sky, You flew too close, now the flames make you cry. On the high ground, where the lava flows, A brother lost, oh, the sorrow grows. Bridge: Smoke and Shadows (The rhythm slows, haunting melody with heavy bass) The air is thick, your vision is hazy, You’re trapped in a dream, the path is crazy. What’s high is low, and what’s low is high, The ground is steady, but your soul must fly. (Beat picks up again) You lit the fire, now you breathe the smoke, The Sith’s dark promises are no joke. But I stand firm where the air is clean, On the high ground, where the truth is seen. Final Chorus On the high ground, you can’t touch the sky, You flew too close, now the flames make you cry. On the high ground, where the lava flows, A brother lost, oh, the sorrow grows. Outro (Guitar fades with soft horns, echoing sadness) Oh, Anakin, you sought the high, But the ground you left was where dreams lie. The higher you climb, the harder you fall, And the high ground remains – above it all.
