Shadows of Kamino

[Verse 1]
Rain falls sideways on the platform
White armor marching in a row
Blueprints burning in the databanks
Every secret bought in shadows
Masks on both sides of the war now
Every oath can be revoked
He calls it peace with a quiet smile
But every promise smells like smoke
[Chorus]
Shadows of Kamino
Clones in the floodlights, waiting for a name
Falling like the first stone
Dropped from a hand that never takes the blame
We were pawns in a plan he wrote alone
In the shadows
Shadows of Kamino
[Verse 2]
Arena sand stained with silence
Roars turn sudden into screams
Chains snap loose and the blades ignite
Lines draw bright across the seams
Flags fall fast in the crossfire
Heroes crumble in the storm
Love held tight in a dying grip
Still he swears this pain is “order” being born
[Chorus]
Shadows of Kamino
Clones in the floodlights, waiting for a name
Falling like the first stone
Dropped from a hand that never takes the blame
We were pawns in a plan he wrote alone
In the shadows
Shadows of Kamino
[Bridge]
All these helmets
Same face, same eyes
Who will count them
When a single word decides?
When the blue light
Flashes on their wrists
Will they feel it
As they fire, as they twist? (hey!)
[Chorus]
Shadows of Kamino
Clones in the floodlights, waiting for a name
Falling like the first stone
Dropped from a hand that never takes the blame
We were pawns in a plan he wrote alone
In the shadows
Shadows of Kamino

Epic metalcore with cinematic strings and brass swells; intro builds from distant choirs and toms into a crushing half-time groove. Guitars sit in a tight mid-scooped wall, with syncopated double-kick and sharp china hits. Verses stay tense and palm-muted, orchestral hits punching accents; chorus opens with soaring male vocals, layered harmonies, and wide reverb. Bridge drops to ambient pads and choir before slamming into a final breakdown and uplifted reprise., metalcore
