The master prompt
Copy it as it is, or change the parts in [BRACKETS] to make it yours.
Style: Cinematic Orchestral Hybrid, Modern Trailer Music, 80 BPM transitioning to 140 BPM, Emotional, Triumphant, Powerful. Instruments: Solo felt piano, cinematic taiko drums, soaring brass section, analog synth pads, orchestral strings, epic choir. Vocal Type: Powerful cinematic male choir, operatic background. [Intro] (Solo piano, slow and fragile) The silence weighs a ton. The fire has gone cold. [Verse 1] (Piano continues, slight string swell) One step in the dark. One breath in the rain. I remember the fall. I remember the pain. [Pre-Chorus] (Percussion enters, steady build, increasing tempo) A spark in the ash. A beat in the chest. The climb starts now. The heart finds its test. [Chorus] (Massive orchestral explosion, heavy brass, synth bass) Rise from the ember. Break every chain. The world will remember. I conquer the rain. Higher than mountains. Stronger than gold. The story is written. The victory told. [Verse 2] (Driving rhythm, rhythmic strings) No more hiding away. No more ghosts in the hall. I stand in the light. I stand through it all. [Bridge] (Brief silence, then a sudden surge) Out of the shadow. Into the sun. The battle is over. The war has been won. [Outro] (Triumphant finale, crashing cymbals, final piano chord) I rise. I rise. (Fade to silence)
