[Intro]
Born in dust
Under twin suns
Band of metal
On a slave boy’s thumb
[Verse 1]
Little spark in the scrap heap fire
Pod-race scream and a razor wire
“Someday I’ll come back
Don’t cry”
Tiny hands reaching for the sky
Temple halls
Robe still new
Council eyes cutting straight through
“Fear in you
Boy” they said
Heard “chosen” echo in his head
[Chorus]
I was the chosen one
Now hear the engine roar (hey!)
Halo of burning worlds
I don’t dream anymore
From desert child
To the iron lunged dark
I was the chosen one
Now I’m the final spark
[Verse 2]
Clone war nights
Red dust rain
Best friend brother in the thunder and flame
Secret ring on a trembling hand
Love buried deep under shifting sand
Every scream sounds like her name
Every death feeds the same old flame
“If they won’t save her
Then I will”
One last step
Then the world goes still
[Chorus]
I was the chosen one
Now hear the engine roar
Halo of burning worlds
I don’t dream anymore
From desert child
To the iron lunged dark
I was the chosen one
Now I’m the final spark
[Bridge]
Kneel on the shore of the lava sea
“Master
Why didn’t you believe in me?”
Burning lungs
Broken sword
Trade my soul for a darker lord
Blackened mask locks the fire inside
Every breath is a war I hide
“Is there anything left of Anakin?”
Ask the ghost in the cold black skin (woah)
[Chorus]
I was the chosen one
Now hear the engine roar
Halo of burning worlds
I don’t dream anymore
From desert child
To the iron lunged dark
I was the chosen one
Now I’m the dying spark
[Outro]
Under twin suns
Ash on the wind
Father
Monster
Still the same skin
End of an empire
Fall of a star
Name on a grave:
Anakin Skywalker
