(Obi-Wan) (soft, pleading): I trained you in the light, in the calm between the stars, You were more than just a blade, you were my brother in arms. The Force was meant to guide you, not bend to all this fear— Anakin, come back to me, I’m still standing here. (Anakin) (intense, rising): You never heard me shouting through the silence in my head, Every rule you praised just felt like another chain instead. I reached for something greater, something you’d never see— Don’t talk to me of balance when I’m finally free. Both (clashing): fire Swing, strike, spark and flame, Say my name, say my name— Fate is written mid-air tonight! Step back, draw the line, Yours or mine, dark or light— This is how a legend breaks in two. (Obi-Wan) (resigned): If this is where the path ends, then I won’t turn away, But I won’t cheer your fall just to beg you to stay. I’ll stand where I must stand, even if it’s alone… (Anakin) (defiant): Then don’t follow me— I’m claiming my throne. Final Chorus (big, dramatic, orchestra going wild): The ground is high, the cost is real, Love turns into sharpened steel, One last choice, one last cry— Teacher, brother… now goodbye.
