The Duke In Black Lyrics by Lee Viab

Photos In The Yearbook

2022

The Duke In The Black
[Verse 1]
The fairytales get you lost
Reality is a frost
The smile makes you gloss
It makes you look like “Oh my Gosh”
Some says dream is just a ghost
But you know that it’s worth
Yeah, you know the cost
Of every single moment of your own
[Pre-Chorus]
The pride breaks you through the storm
There is no room for fears. They’re gone
Your generosity defines you as the royal
[Chorus]
But I’m pretty sure deep down you are a little boy
Who built a fortress protecting from the world that triеd to destroy you
Yes, I see that you’ve lеarned how to defend yourself and attack
But in your light you are more than just a Duke in the black
[Verse 2]
You tried that hard to be the greatest that you have lost the line to goal
But this loss has set you free. Losing a role made you find your own
The lion is majestic, but is happiness for him? Let’s make it clear
Sometimes you need to take off the crown to feel alive, I mean
[Pre-Chorus]
The pride breaks you through the storm
There is no room for fears. They’re gone
Your generosity defines you as the royal
[Chorus]
But I’m pretty sure deep down you are a little boy
Who built a fortress protecting from the world that tried to destroy you
Yes, I see that you’ve learned how to defend yourself and attack
But in your light you are more than just a Duke in the black
Yeah I’m pretty sure deep down you are a little boy
Who built a fortress protecting from the world that tried to destroy you
Yes, I see that you’ve learned how to defend yourself and attack
But in your light you are more than just a Duke in the black
