The Ballad of Drake Steele

Epic rock ballad with a cinematic flair, guitar and drum-heavy, Baritone male voice

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Of steel dragons born,
His parents from his life torn;
The greed of man, an early plight,
Saved by a half-elf woman that night;
His new family, the elves would teach,
The magic's depths that he could reach;
A pupil apt the dragon was,
And soon, a citizen causing a buzz.

[Verse 2]
He met his first wife Raevenna there,
A fair elf maiden with raven hair;
His Hoard she made him as a gift,
Then 'tween man and elf was torn a rift;
Mankind cut the forests down,
The home of elves they did surround;
Elves drew within themselves,
And soon, there were no more elves.

[Chorus]
He is Drake Steele,
The dragon vampire mage;
Ancient creature of legend,
Remnant of a bygone age;
He put his fingers in everything,
Tinkering in human history,
And working toward the future,
Looking for what will be.

[Verse 3]
He traveled the Silk Road,
Trading with the East;
Rode a while with the Huns,
And in a village met a beast;
A beautiful dragon maiden,
Of silver scales shined;
And he shared her life with her,
And left a daughter behind.

[Verse 4]
Zenobia was a princess,
He met in Nubia's past;
Together they'd conquer Egypt,
But their era wouldn't last;
They retired to Rome,
A Senator she became;
And he stayed until she aged,
And death put out her flame.

[Verse 5]
Mirchelle was a Gaelic girl,
That went with him to Camelot;
And Arthur took him on the crusades,
She bemoaned her lot;
She hated the loneliness,
Their daughter could not fill;
So she went back to gaul;
Only for vampire hunters to kill.

[Verse 6]
Indira was passionate,
And loved to love her man;
Together wrote the Kama Sutra,
Which the test of time would stand;
Then during DaVinci's time,
Zita entered his life;
Italian girl who traveled to the new world,
With him as his sixth wife.

[Verse 7]
Zita left him after two hundred years,
Having asked him to be turned;
But eventually a fire to explore the world,
A wanderlust inside her burned;
So he threw himself into industry,
And into modern things;
And Drake in New York City's heights,
Still perches with open wings.

[Outro to fade]
He is Drake Steele,
The dragon vampire mage;
Ancient creature of legend,
Remnant of a bygone age;
He put his fingers in everything,
Tinkering in human history,
And working toward the future,
Looking for what will be.
