The piece begins with a slow, single-note melody of strings, playing a rearrangement of the synth notes from ''[[Under Cover of Night]]'' (from ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''). Higher strings then join in with a single note. The motif is then repeated with choir in the background. The music then switches to a minor key, still retaining the same slow melody. The strings softly transition into the melody of the second part of ''[[Enough Dead Heroes]]'' (from ''Halo: Original Soundtrack''), but the melody doesn't resolve, creating a sense of uncertainty. Instead, it fades, to be replaced by snare drums, transitioning into a full rearrangement of ''[[Brothers in Arms]]'': the strings melody swells into a triumphant fanfare, with strings returning for a somber and sad melody. | The piece begins with a slow, single-note melody of strings, playing a rearrangement of the synth notes from ''[[Under Cover of Night]]'' (from ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]'').

The track's name references the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' soundtrack ''Brothers in Arms'', and the second section of the piece is a full rearrangement of the track. The rearrangement also plays in the level ''[[The Storm]]''. It first plays in full when [[John-117]] enters the first lake bed, where a group of Marines are being attacked by a [[Type-52 Phantom]]. A lighter version (with snare drums, high strings, flute, and vocals) plays | The track's name references the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' soundtrack ''Brothers in Arms'', and the second section of the piece is a full rearrangement of the track.
