Solo

V6

Yeah... You know the name. Han Solo. Ain't no prophecy, ain't no chosen one. Just a little luck and a whole lot of running. Chewie, fire it up. Let's ride. [VERSE 1 – 0:20 | Smooth melodic rap, deep bass enters] Born under stars where the outlaws roam, Never had a kingdom, never had a home. Got a ship full of dreams and a debt to pay, Kessel Run legend, yeah, I made that way. Corellian nights with the engines glowing, Credits in my pocket and the hyperdrive flowing. Jabba on my back, got a price on my head, But I'm still making moves while the galaxy's in bed. Black vest, gold dice, never play fair, Got a Wookiee riding shotgun, nobody compares. They say I'm reckless, say I'm out of control, But there's a whole lot of fire in a smuggler's soul. I don't need a medal, don't need no throne, I make my own rules in the great unknown. And if the Empire wants to put me away, They better bring more than a fleet my way. [PRE-CHORUS – 0:55 | Piano chords, airy harmonies] I've been running from the sunrise, Chasing shadows through the night. Never thought I'd find a reason To put my freedom on the line. But something changed along the way, Somewhere between the stars and space. Now there's something worth believing, And I can't just fly away. [CHORUS – 1:15 | Big melodic R&B hook, 808s, saxophone accents] I'm just a smuggler in the starlight, Flying through the galaxy tonight. Got a million miles behind me, But there's nowhere else I'd rather be. With the stars beneath my wings, And a rebel heart that never sleeps. I was born to run, but now I see, There's something bigger calling me. Oh-oh, let the Millennium fly, Oh-oh, we're never saying goodbye. From the Outer Rim to paradise, I'm just a smuggler in the starlight. [VERSE 2 – 1:55 | Rhythmic rap, bouncing bass, crisp hi-hats] Met a princess with an attitude, Said she didn't need me, well, that's nothing new. Always talking tough, always looking so cold, But she's got a kind of fire that I can't control. Then there's a farm boy with a destiny, Talking 'bout the Force like it's meant to be. Old man Kenobi with his mysterious ways, Now I'm shooting down TIEs in a rebellion craze. Chewie in the back and he's howling again, I tell him calm down, we're surrounded by ten. Blasters on the left, hyperspace on the right, I got a bad feeling but we're making it tonight. Used to chase credits, used to chase fame, Never gave a damn about a rebel's name. Now I'm risking everything, got nothing to prove, Funny how a heart can change when you find your crew. [PRE-CHORUS 2 – 2:30 | Piano, atmospheric synth pads, rising vocals] I've been running from the sunrise, Chasing shadows through the night. Never thought I'd find a reason To put my freedom on the line. And if tomorrow takes me under, I'll go down with my crew. Never thought I'd fight for something, Till I found something true. [CHORUS – 2:50 | Full production, layered harmonies, soaring saxophone] I'm just a smuggler in the starlight, Flying through the galaxy tonight. Got a million miles behind me, But there's nowhere else I'd rather be. With the stars beneath my wings, And a rebel heart that never sleeps. I was born to run, but now I see, There's something bigger calling me. Oh-oh, let the Millennium fly, Oh-oh, we're never saying goodbye. From the Outer Rim to paradise, I'm just a smuggler in the starlight. [BRIDGE – 3:25 | Beat drops out, emotional piano and soulful saxophone] Maybe I was never meant to be a hero, Maybe I was never meant to save the day. But when the whole damn galaxy is burning, Sometimes you gotta choose which side you play. I used to think that love was just a weakness, Something that could get you killed someday. But I'd cross a thousand galaxies for you, And I wouldn't have it any other way. [FINAL CHORUS – 3:50 | Explosive 808s, double-time hi-hats, layered vocals] I'm just a smuggler in the starlight, Flying through the galaxy tonight. Got a million miles behind me, But there's nowhere else I'd rather be. With the stars beneath my wings, And a rebel heart that never sleeps. I was born to run, but now I see, There's something bigger calling me. Oh-oh, let the Millennium fly, Oh-oh, we're never saying goodbye. From the Outer Rim to paradise, I'm just a smuggler in the starlight. [OUTRO – 4:15 | Saxophone solo, fading synths, engine sound] Yeah... Never tell me the odds. Chewie, you ready? Punch it.
