Commander Shepard theme song reminds us that we'll never be as badass as Commander Shepard
In the distant future, when man has colonized the sun and whales have learned to form governments, our robotic children will sing tales of an ancient hero known as Commander Shepard. And those songs will sound like this...
Alright, so the whale part may never happen, but if BioWare really wants to up the awesome factor for Mass Effect 3, it'll consider using this as its intro. The song was created by a self-professed geek named miracleofsound, and the video was provided by MandaloreMovies.
The entire lyrics are as follows:
From Omega to Mars
 From the Council to the seediest bars
 From the reaches of space
 To the pillars of Asari grace
 There are battle-worn batarians lacking in humility
 Turians a braggin’ bout their reach and flexibility
 The clutter of the cities spreads to the loneliest stars
 But no matter what scars you bear
 Whatever uniform you wear
 You can fight like a Krogan, run like a leopard
 But you’ll never be better than Commander Shepard
 In the Citadel’s halls
 Inside the shining walls
 Hear the stories from Earth
 Fighters try to prove their worth
 Salarian science smothered in idium
 About as stimulating as scanning for irridium
 But one tale holds every mind enthralled
 Cos no matter what scars you bear
 Whatever uniform you wear
 You can fight like a Krogan, run like a leaopard
 But you’ll never be better than Commander Shepard
 COMMANDER SHEPARD!
 Cos no matter what scars you bear
 Whatever uniform you wear
 You can fight like a Krogan, run like a leaopard
 But you’ll never be better than Commander Shepard
 Never be better than Commander Shepard
 ASSUMING CONTROL
No sir, no we will not. Miracleofsound says his music is inspired by songs from his "geeky little brain" that sound "like Gordon Freeman battling Master Chief with two Lancers in an electrical shop.”
