lyrics
So blindly
I've spent a lifetime with my head beneath the sand
(It's hardly fun)
But finally, I've come up for air
Now all I need is someone's hand
(A guardian)
Help me be a free creator
Of more than just my work
(I will not be)
I will not be some spectator
While the world around me turns
Lift this embryonic fate I've sealed
Take away this chronic pain I feel
The rest of my life might begin with you
You might be my turning point, my moment of truth
Like Sisyphus
A boulder pressing on my shoulders - lift it off
(This hefty weight)
A chrysalis
A prison keeping me suspicious - break me out
(Can hardly wait)
Help me be the sole dictator
Of my own destiny
(I will not be)
I will not be some spectator
While the world just spins around me
Lift this cold cryonic state I'm in
Drain the toxic waste I'm swimming in
The rest of my life might begin with you
You might be my turning point, my moment of truth
I won't stagnate
I'll design my only fate
The world is mine to see
The scent of new is calling me
Help me be the sole proprietor
Of this human form
(Won't you help me)
Help me be a noble fighter
But keep me safe from harm
Lift this embryonic fate I've sealed
Take away this chronic pain I feel
And I swear that I won't depend on you
You might be my turning point, my moment of truth
Yeah, you might be my turning point, my moment of truth
I've spent a lifetime with my head beneath the sand
(It's hardly fun)
But finally, I've come up for air
Now all I need is someone's hand
(A guardian)
Help me be a free creator
Of more than just my work
(I will not be)
I will not be some spectator
While the world around me turns
Lift this embryonic fate I've sealed
Take away this chronic pain I feel
The rest of my life might begin with you
You might be my turning point, my moment of truth
Like Sisyphus
A boulder pressing on my shoulders - lift it off
(This hefty weight)
A chrysalis
A prison keeping me suspicious - break me out
(Can hardly wait)
Help me be the sole dictator
Of my own destiny
(I will not be)
I will not be some spectator
While the world just spins around me
Lift this cold cryonic state I'm in
Drain the toxic waste I'm swimming in
The rest of my life might begin with you
You might be my turning point, my moment of truth
I won't stagnate
I'll design my only fate
The world is mine to see
The scent of new is calling me
Help me be the sole proprietor
Of this human form
(Won't you help me)
Help me be a noble fighter
But keep me safe from harm
Lift this embryonic fate I've sealed
Take away this chronic pain I feel
And I swear that I won't depend on you
You might be my turning point, my moment of truth
Yeah, you might be my turning point, my moment of truth

BTSX OST Vol. 1
by Esselfortiumsupported by 8 fans who also own “Moment of Truth”
Absolutely sublime, an essential to any MIDI enthusiast. Vanilla compatible as well. Of course if you don't know, you should play BTSX using a source port of your choice: You can use ZDL to load up source ports and cleanly select multiple pk3s and WADs to run. The interface of ZDL is a bit clunky but, to play BTSX all you would really need to do is drag and drop the WAD to a sourceport exe to launch it. I recommend GZDoom for utility, Woof for authenticity, and DSDA if you're speedy boi.

It is a different tone from other WAD soundtracks.

DOOM: Heartland OST
by Stuart Rynnsupported by 7 fans who also own “Moment of Truth”
Found through an interesting discussion and post on secrets. I haven't actually played this WAD but the soundtrack by Stuart Rynn is just so much fun... particularly the Jazz Machine. Only really great stuff puts me in a good mood these days, and this sure delivers in that regard. Big recommend. Real sense of that feeling of adventure.

Doom Playstation: Official Soundtrack - 20th Anniversary Extended Edition
by Aubrey Hodgessupported by 6 fans who also own “Moment of Truth”
To me, this is the quintessential Doom atmosphere, and takes me back to the first version I played. There's nothing else quite like it.
