Yeah, it's the wrong forum, but what the hey, I'll provide feedback:
You put a stereo enhancer over the entire mix? All the sounds sound like they're panned to the left. It sounds really odd. If the stereo enhancement is part of a mastering preset, open up the preset and remove the stereo effect, it makes it really hard to focus on the song.
The lead isn't "epic" - it's just a couple of notes here and there, and even that doesn't last that long. There's nothing original/ worthwhile here, in terms of composition.
Mix-wise, it sounds okay. But hey, you may have used a construction kit. In any case, even if you set the mix up yourself, there are thousands of fantastic mix engineers around, so even the greatest sounding mix isn't going to differentiate you in any way. Define what you bring to the table, what makes you unique, why someone would take the time to listen to your songs instead of a thousand other artists songs.
You know, 10 years ago I would've said "hey, this sounds great, keep it up man!" And yeah, I still think keep it up, but keep learning, listen to good mixes (and try to hear that they don't sound like everything's panned left), and listen to great catchy hooks.
All the best!

Don't let the negative feedback put you off though!
The track is.........meh, not very good, but you're probably a beginner. Okay? Cool, deal with that and move forward!
As mentioned, the general mix and stereo image here in your track is, er, f****d.
I'd recommend browsing the net, reading books, watching tutorials on mixing, and learning how to correctly pan your sounds, etc.
It's also important to consider what setup you are using to compile, listen to and mix your track. Like, what kind of speakers, their placement and the sound of your mixing room, that kind of thing.
Don't be discouraged, keep trying and more importantly, dedicate yourself to the boring task of learning.
I still have my first production from when I was 15, and it's great to know that I've come so far, but that I have a long way to go
