Behind This Screen - A D&D DUNGEON MASTER Inspired Song #sunoai #googleveo2

Details

Description

A love letter to all the Dungeon Masters we've met along the way.

I've been sitting on this song because I wanted to do something cool for the music video. Google Veo 2 is finally out, and it's crazy how quick this came together.

I'm a big D&D nerd, Endless Taverns was born from waning to make D&D modules of my own weird ideas. You can download it all FREE: https://ko-fi.com/endlesstaverns/shop

Lyrics:

While others dream of glory, I'm prepping at my desk
Writing lore till 3 AM, I’m mildly obsessed
I spent the week planning a castle full of lore
But still they're in the tavern focused on a door

All my puzzles lie forgotten, my N.P.Cs unloved
They adopted that damn goblin, he's all they're speaking of
They claim they fear no evil, but I’ve seen their panicked eyes
When I grin behind the screen and say, time to roll the dice!

Roll initiative!

I'm the Dungeon Master, rollin’ fates on demand
Cartographer, note taker, one-man marching band
Behind this screen, I’m the keeper of dreams
Building kingdoms out of paper, hope, and caffeine

Minutes blur to hours when their roleplay takes command
I set the stage, then fade away, the dice are in their hands
The fighter roars, the bard laments, the cleric makes a stand
I haven’t spoken in twenty minutes, exactly as I planned

I'm the Dungeon Master, I’m the god behind the veil
The voice of every villain, every quest, and every tale
I made a town out of plot hooks, they burned it down for fun
But still I show up every week… ‘cause I'm the chosen one

Does anyone else want to try being DM?

No!

Fine!

You may forget the story beats, the names, and worlds I've made
But not the laughs, the late-night crits, the bonds that never fade
It’s worth the long hours of prepping this game of pretend
And knowing that the tale goes on long past the journey’s end

It’s not the loot, it’s not the boss, it’s watching you succeed
That spark of light behind your eyes is all the prize I need
And If you leave with brighter eyes, then you’ve seen what I have seen
For All the love that lives forever, was born behind this screen
