This song is my entry in the StarForge "Epic" competition.

There’s a hush in the distance, a promise in the void
A quiet undertow pulling hope from the paranoid
Hearts aflame with reason, forging bold frontiers
A flash of the impossible humming in your ears
You chase that silent thunder, unafraid to try
Taste the dream so vivid, though it flickers in the sky
The vantage of tomorrow shimmers on the rise
No turning back once you’ve glimpsed paradise

You’re close enough to sense it breaking
A pulse inside the moment, impatiently waiting

This is EPIC! ... the shape of a rising dawn
A reign of aspiration, a truth we lean upon
It’s EPIC! ... engraved in the bloodstream’s climb
A testament to vision, transcending space and time

A whisper in the darkness, a hunger never named
Piercing every silence, a vow yet unclaimed
A labyrinth of insight uncoils at your feet
Where each step redefines the threshold you dare to meet
We stretch beyond all limits, defying gravity
In glimpses of an apex, we’re forging destiny
Inside each heartbeat’s echo, we hear the ancient call
It murmurs: onward, upward—ascend above it all

Truth stands exposed, a phoenix in the ash
Your fervor hits ignition, braced for the clash

This is EPIC! ... a spark in the keenest eye
The summit of conviction, too bold to be denied
It’s EPIC! ... a vow etched in brimming light
A cradle for new legends, ignited in the night

Feel the nerve unravel, the weight of unmade dreams
Standing on the threshold, forging faith from extremes
Let the horizon beckon, let illusions burn
In the glow of tomorrow, the tide begins to turn

This is EPIC! ... the dawn of a fearless soul
A narrative unbroken, unstoppable and whole
It’s EPIC! ... no boundary remains
We surge beyond our limits, dissolving mortal chains

"Out of the unknown… greatness takes its reign"

EPIC
EPIC!

Its fucking EPIC!
