Hi,

I am not sure that there is an issue with posting a line or two, but when you post that many, it is sure to pen up someone's eyes.

Personally, I don't care for it, and find the "push" a bit too much for me. No one, will ever "discuss" their inner trip, because it is simply something that often has no words for it, and simply relying on this and that to supposedly show how spiritual one's work is, is sort of a "new age" tradition ... complete with a woman in the cover and looking sexy.

Sadly, within 2 minutes it sounds like everyone else, and not very original.

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

As far as I know, it's a problem when the lyrics of an entire songs are posted, but not bits and pieces or just a stanza.

Epica's lyrics are something completely else.. for those who are spiritually inclined and who have awoken from the matrix, the sheer truth and divine wisdom thats oozing from their lyrics is truly awe-inspiring!


1) This band is not only aware of the spiritual/metaphysical laws that govern this universe ("Design your Universe", "the Holographic Principle", "Kingdom of Heaven" etc...) and manage to pack these into their lyrics to give their music an overall very empowering and inspiring message:

"Quantum physics lead us to
Answers to the great taboos
We create the world around us
God is every living soul" - Kingdom of Heaven

---

"Only you is what you'll be
Now break out and we'll be free
Leave dubiety behind
And dive into eternal light" - the Holographic Principle

---

"Just as water turns to snow
What is above so is below
In time we learn to heal the cells
We can cure ourselves
Use this healing energy
Form a holy trinity
This is the knowledge that we have been searching for" - Kingdom of Heaven Pt. III

---

2) They are also very aware of the spiritual war thats raging in this world and humanities struggle to rise above the dark and liberate itself from the parasitic consciousness ("Beyond the Matrix", "Monopoly on Truth", "Requiem for the Indifferent"..) and speak of the great paradigmshift into a new golden age of unity consciousness that is awaiting us, once humanity has awoken from the illusions of this slave-matrix ("Unchain Utopia", "A New Age Dawns"..):

"Can we trust all the facts
And believe that the fancied wise
Are just and needed?
Do we want to rely on the views
Of the righteous ones who are succeeding?
If you look all around and you see
All the things that are not meant to be
Then you know it's time to let them go, to let them go" - Monopoly on Truth

---

"Shine through the sky
Beyond the matrix
Feel what it's like
To reach divinity
[...]
Stay in charge maintain your duty
Dive into the sea of pure tranquility
We will be finally free" - Beyond the Matrix

---

"We're in a time where all enterprises fall
We should beware of the wolves that haunt us
They are not all the same, cannot take the blame
Await the time to unchain utopia" - Unchain Utopia

---

3) And lets not forget the many very touching/relatable titles about the human condition and epica's rather profound spiritual advice for self-realisation, healing and empowerment.

"Break loose from the chains
Rise above the waves
Fighting in the darkness
Dancing in the light
Break out of your cage
Turn another page
Drowning in the river
Swim against the tide of life" - Rivers

---

"We will last forever
As our essence never dies
Find the deep buried wisdom
As you go on your way
Open your senses
Reach out and you shall receive" - Omega

---

"Rise and shine with all your light
Awake the force within you
Wade in waters filled with joy
Try to find the place that hides
The treasure in the palace
All the stars are by your side" - Kingdom of Heaven Pt. III


This band is a total gem, musically as well as lyrically absolute spiritual fire! 🔥

I had to pleasure to see them live on their last show of the epic apocalypse tour and we had such a blast! 😁
The matrix is collapsing you guys, the final victory of light is inevitable and
Soon we will be finally free! 🙏💜🥰
