Incandescent Flame

Intro  
 
When there’s nothing to lose, but everything to gain  
 
A journey moving forward, never the same again  
 
To look beyond the shadows, towards a ray of light  
 
Just embrace the midnight, the stars come out at night  
 
   
 
Verse 1  
 
There’s nothing to prove, follow authenticity  
 
Surrender the complex, focus with simplicity  
 
Keep that flame burning, resplendence of desire  
 
There’s no better time, to keep on aiming higher  
 
   
 
Chorus  
 
A mighty momentous move, just stay in your lane  
 
Be that inspiration, that incandescent flame  
 
A call for boldness, times will ever test  
 
Called and chosen, give your very best  
 
   
 
Verse 2  
 
A subtle reaction, rise against the fall  
 
The true satisfaction, the giving of your all  
 
Advancing in harmony, this moment truly yours  
 
An opportune time, the opening of doors  
 
   
 
Chorus  
 
   
 
Bridge  
 
No substance lost, endeavour to try  
 
Seize every moment, remember the why  
 
Towards the exceptional, no middle road  
 
Be unforgettable, let victory unfold

 Incandescent Flame is a victorious song of decision. At the onset, is the realisation of having nothing to lose, but everything to gain. In the pursuit of purpose, comes the quest for meaning to one's journey, which can only add to the fullness of life. The journey hitherto has been likened to shadows and darkness, whereby the concept of venturing beyond safe borders is comparative to light. The act of 'playing it safe' has brought nothing but the mediocre and an empty sense of fulfillment.

The individual desires the simplicity of the boldness to try and surrender previous excuses that have delayed opportunity. If the individual is going to shine as bright as an incandescent flame, then the courage to advance forward, in spite of obstacles and setbacks, would be conducive to greater fulfillment and success. The quest requires the individual to go beyond the ordinary and to settle for no less that they truly deserve.
