Eleven Golden Ducks

Vocal : Magdalena Meisel, Jacek Przydryga
Music : Magdalena Meisel, Jacek Przydryga, Marcel Różanka, Jarosław Toifl
Lyrics : Krzysztof Wartak
Producer/publisher : Krzysztof Wartak, Malovana

Inspiration: Eleven Golden Ducks – The song Eleven Golden Ducks refers to the gold rush that attracted people to places like Colorado Springs in the 19th century, in order to get rich quick. The lyrics of the song refer to this historical event, but in a metaphorical way, the social connection to material success. The symbolism of the "golden ducks" to the illusion of wealth, the so-called fool's gold, an illusory value, one of many chases, only one from sight of what is really important. The pursuit of gold continues, but for the girl, "fool's gold" has no value. She wants something more from the rich sly, than just material wealth, searching for the "golden spirit", which is meaning and external connection. The number eleven in the lyrics, symbolizes the angelic location of the connection of souls - the "golden soul", which symbolizes unity and spiritual wholeness, as well as love and bonding between people. The golden duck in relation to cricket, refers to the term "golden duck", which is used in this sport. In cricket, the "golden duck" is used when a batsman (striker) is bowled out in his first over, which is very unlucky in the first instance of a ground ball. The "golden duck" is a symbol of failure and that game, resulting in an effect or outcome.

In the context of the song, the reference to the "golden duck" symbolizes access to a quick source or success that ends in failure. A girl doesn't want to have a guy and his one, golden card in a financial institution with one footnote.

In reality, it is about finding intangible values, spirituality, authentic relationships and peace of heart and soul, instead of blindly pursuing illusory wealth.


Lyrics :

Golden soul…eleven
Golden spirit, golden soul

I will give you all the gold in the world,
Gold cards in every institution,
Got accounts in eleven banks, unfurled.
Tempted by prohibition, no ilusion.

The stone glare blinded people
That’s what you want, you’re a fool
Yes, yes you have to go to school
When Colorado Springs woke up
You’re thinking ‘bout the map
Yo’ll achieve gold, don’t give up
You’re thinking ‘bout the map
Yo’ll achieve gold, don’t give up

Prostitution holds no sway
All the gold, just for you
For you, I’ll give it all away
Everything I have and more too

It’s a rush, golden ducks
Golden cash, golden fool, golden crash
Stop this heartless madness in me
Ducks can’t fly to heaven
We believe in love of souls
Te golden soul
We believe in love of souls
Te golden soul eleven

It’s still going on the gold rush
Fool’s gold is not for me,
(not for you) come on!
Give me golden cash
Let me have a golden spirit

It’s still going on the gold ruuuush
Fool’s gold is not for me, (not for you) come on, oh
Give me golden cash, please
Let me have a golden heartbeat, heartbeat
Made eleven golden ducks
Why are they worthless
I don’t know what is wrong with me (ELEVEN)
The gold rush is still going on, Can’t you see? Eleven golden ducks
Eleven golden ducks Golden ducks
Golden ducks

It’s still going on the gold rush
Fool’s gold is not for me, come on
Give me golden cash
Let me have a golden spirit

It’s still going on the gold rush
Fool’s gold is not for me, come on
Give me golden cash
Let me have a golden spirit
Golden soul………..
Uuuuuuuu……
Golden spirit

ELEVEN GOLDEN DUCKS

Eleven Golden Ducks

[Intro]  

I put my heart into these chords, these lines, these melodies,  
Upload my soul into the void, just hoping someone sees.  
But every time I check my feed, a message waits for me—  
A promise wrapped in sugar, but it’s never what it seems.  

[Verse 1]  

"Hey, I love your music, bro! It’s fire, it’s insane!"  

Then three replies later, it’s "Invest in your name!"  
Sony wants to sign me? Oh, sure, that sounds legit…  
But why’s your profile say you’re based in Bangladesh?  

[Pre-Chorus]  
I don’t need a fake deal,  
I don’t need your promo,  
I just want a real ear  
To hear what I wrote, so…  

[Chorus]  
 
Just listen—don’t sell me a dream,  
I ain’t got the time for another scheme.  
I don’t need your "boost" or a "Spotify stream,"  
Just tell me if my song really means anything.  
Just listen—no dollar signs,  
No empty praise, no scripted lines.  
If you really feel it, then tell me why—  
But don’t try to sell me a lie.  

[Verse 2]  

Atlantic’s in my inbox now, but spelled without a "C."  
And Capitol’s got zero posts? Yeah, sounds legit to me…  
"Let’s get you on a playlist, bro—50 dollars a song!"  
If I had a dime for every scam, I’d own the whole damn blog.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
I don’t need a fake deal,  
I don’t need your promo,  
I just want a real ear  
To hear what I wrote, so…  

[Chorus]  
Just listen—don’t sell me a dream,  
I ain’t got the time for another scheme.  
I don’t need your "boost" or a "Spotify stream,"  
Just tell me if my song really means anything.  
Just listen—no dollar signs,  
No empty praise, no scripted lines.  
If you really feel it, then tell me why—  
But don’t try to sell me a lie.  

[Bridge]  

From India to Singapore, LA to UK,  
They’re all reading from the same damn play…  
"Your music’s got potential, we love your sound!"  
Then it’s "Pay me first, I’ll get you found."  

[Final Chorus]  

Just listen—don’t sell me a dream,  
I ain’t got the time for another scheme.  
I don’t need your "boost" or a "Spotify stream,"  
Just tell me if my song really means anything.  
Just listen—no dollar signs,  
No empty praise, no scripted lines.  
If you really feel it, then tell me why—  
But don’t try to sell me a lie.  

[Outro]  

Just listen… just listen…  
Not for money… just for meaning…  
Just listen… 


Just Listen

Love Light - Robert Grigg & Combstead

🎭 A Dream Worth Breaking 
“Not Zaun. Not vengeance. Not even freedom. Just her.”

Step into the smoke and sorrow of Arcane’s darkest lullaby. "A Dream Worth Breaking" is a cinematic, emotionally raw confessional ballad sung from the aching heart of Silco — not as a Revolutionary but as a father.

Blending haunting piano, electric cello, and ambient industrial textures, this track spirals from whispered grief to orchestral catharsis. Inspired by the hidden backstory of Felicia — Vi and Powder’s mother — this song reframes Zaun’s rebellion as a vow born of love, not just revolution.

But when that vow collides with the broken child Silco raises as his own, the dream shatters. And in the shards, he finds something more powerful than power: a reason to stop fighting. A reason to hold on.

🩸 From ghostly female echoes of “Powder” to the swelling chorus where Silco trades war cries for lullabies, this is a farewell to an old  promise and a tribute to a daughter who became the dream,His Legacy,His Daughter

✨ For fans of emotional storytelling, cinematic soundscapes, and characters too broken not to love.

Lyrics – A Dream Worth Breaking
Silco’s confessional to the only vow he ever meant to keep.

You made us promise in the dark
Said you couldn’t raise her in the smog.
"You're not allowed to fail again,"
That vow was more than just a joke.
We took the weight, two broken men…
But I walked the fire alone again.
With every drop they bled from Zaun,
I swore to burn the world to right that wrong.

I carried your ghost like a knife,
Cut the air with speeches, sold my soul to strife.
Painted freedom in Shimmer and blood,
Told myself the ends were worth what they’d become.

Then I found her in the rain.
Tears that matched my soot and flame.
Arms around me, frail and bruised—
Powder, little girl I couldn't lose.

And everything changed.
She cracked the iron in my chest.
No longer chasing flags or flame—
She became my breath.
Not Zaun, not war, not even pride.
Just keep her safe, just keep her alive.
The dream I once set cities on fire to reach
Now cried in my arms on that rusted bridge.

I wore my mask before the crowd,
Spoke in steel and rage out loud.
But in the dark, I watched her sleep,
Listened to the chaos buried deep.
And tried to be the father I never had,
Teaching strength the only way I could stand.

They called me monster, zealot, ghost…
But I dropped it all when she needed me most.
That day her blood met Piltover’s rain,
I didn’t see a soldier, only pain.
And I knew—oh, I knew right then:
She wasn’t my weapon or a tool…
She was the end.
I felt like a fool.

And everything changed.
She cracked the warlord into dust.
Zaun could burn, I'd let it rust
If she would breathe, if she would trust.
No more crusade, no more command—
Just hold her hand, just hold her hand.
Not victory, not power, not flame…
Just the sound of her voice saying my name.

Don’t cry... you’re perfect.
Even in chaos, even in pain.
You’re the song, the dream, my legacy.
Don’t cry... you’re perfect.
Perfect...
My dream, my legacy…
My daughter.
