Entry from This Is Not A Test in Nur Ein XI.

Tell an origin story

LyricsShow lyrics

flying through the night
far away from home
nothing to report
as the console radar shows

the same routine
all systems go
until a transmission
from air traffic control

THIS IS NOT A TEST
IT'S AN EMERGENCY

a bogey found
he's not alone
at 8 o'clock
now I'm in the dangerzone

they've got a lock
all systems red
too late to fight
gonna have to run instead

THIS IS NOT A TEST
IT'S AN EMERGENCY

(this is not a badass solo
this is an instrumental bridge)

THIS IS NOT A TEST
IT'S AN EMERGENCY

the seat ejects
and the plane explodes
when i touch the ground
the parachute's still closed ( <--- implying the protagonist just found out he has super-human powers)

THIS IS NOT A TEST
IT'S AN EMERGENCY

Standard rock song. I like your vocals and everything here, it doesn't particularly stick out from the other songs though. This clearly qualifies as origin story, and it's a cool one, so you get a fat challenge bonus.
