Lyrics:
One by one the hooks go under
To the sound of roaring thunder
All the teeth that lurk beneath are
Set to tear the poor asunder
Cut the throats and cut the checks and
Cut the lines of simple deckhands
Just one Terror went to sea but
By some power two came back and
Now the docks are haunted
By the one they thought had drowned
Oh how it enthralls me
Hearing what they call me now
The name they gave the man they once betrayed
Lost to the waves
Afraid, they sailed away
Today, there’s a familiar whispered phrase
The captains say “fear the ripper”
One more for the hungry
Justice here has just begun
You look so familiar
As the water fills your lungs
The face of one who’s never seen the deep
Reigning supreme
Drag thee down into the dream
As you sleep, gladly believe you’re safe from me
But know the sea takes no prisoners
It’s dark down here
Gets hard to see through the fear
And yet my path is clear
As the list
Calls for a name
One more to take all the blame
The black mist falls on the bay and brings a king
Such worthy prey needs a worthy killer
========
Remember how I said Jhin was the one that least matched my voice? I changed my mind. I’m too young for this shit.
I was hoping to get this one out in January, but didn’t want to rush it. I wanna get kinda serious about this stuff now, and that means upgrading my video editor from Kapwing (lol) to Hitfilm Express (lmao). The plan is to release another League Lyricised every month for the rest of the year (including an extra one this month because I still count this as January’s), plus trying out a couple other things. We’ll see how long it takes for me to fall behind schedule (hint: probably instantly).

[@no.5689]

mm that mention of viego arriving with the black mist is just chefs kiss

[@verasul]

"Just one Terror went to sea but By some power two came back" This part always gives me goosebumps. Such a great line and reference to his backstory (not that the rest of the song is less good).

[@nicoluca_11]

if we really wanted to boost the creepiness of the lyrics maybe a woman should've sung it or maybe a more aggressive voice but yeah anyways you did a perfect job on the lyrics for Pyke's theme

[@corvianNoctis]

I wasn't expecting much and I got absolutely blown away. Bravo, sir.

[@PYKE250K]

You did a great job man. I wish i noticed this masterpiece sooner!

[@idan1998]

I love how with every lyrics of yours you can tell the story of the character and describe them, And make the end of stanza a banger, "The captain says fear the Ripper" "But know the sea takes no prisoners", You are truly an underrated author. And I look further to hear more of you, If you ask me, I'll say Kindred's theme is a nice one with lyrics Potential. (Also I have no idea how I didn't noticed the that the last stanza referred to Viego, Great Detail).

[@thewhitest7925]

Deep down, i'm extremely happy this exists. Hope it doesn't get drowned in the depths of youtube.

[@ThundererR64T]

0:47 This gave me goosebumps, if it was a real story it would've made me cry

[@kosstarYT]

Bro the last line is sooo damn good! Amazing work! 500k Pyke here!

[@rodia_the_smg_guy5575]

this HAS to be one of the best fan made songs of any game i've ever heard

[@pretzel423]

God that opening is so perfect like Disney song catchy

[@TheMysteriousGamer6]

I don't play League, and I gotta say; if it wasn't for the comment section; I would have said it's an official theme.

[@simounluz5063]

Today, there’s a familiar whispered phrase The captains say “fear the ripper” ok now you have my attention and wasnt expecting and thbis is so legend and drag to the seas but bravo bravo man keep it up

[@Albert-rl7tx]

holy shit, this entire lyric totally sounds like what Pyke would whisper to his victim's ears as they draw their last breath

[@shinoharakuro]

man says "my voice doesnt match for this, i'm too young" my brother in christ you matched the tone and voice of a group dedicated entirely to sea shanties, for a seafaring themed character

[@defaultpfpwithafly7504]

"The captains say “fear the ripper” " i got goosebumps from that line🥶🥶

[@Hoot]

sick dude

[@aramisthai-garcia4052]

[@joshuay.5864]

It’s just so **chef’s kiss**

[@gntboa9223]

[@magenta8516]

i like the ref to viego that you put with the black mist and the king

[@novaes5979]

There are no words on this planet that can describe how AMAZING this is.

[@TheAlison1456]

This is so epic man

[@daf963]

Amazing synergy with the beat, so happy I found this channel, amazing pieces, exquisitely fitting lyrics, overall delicious stuff Nebulus!!!! Please make more!

[@collectortv1614]

youve earned yourself a Subscriber there! Awesome production

[@lousysniper2434]

This is amazing I will be looking forward to your career 👀

[@antwan6672]

Ok my honest opinion on this: I like it a lot not gonna lie, your voice is fantastic the way you handle the notes is pretty decent, now what I dont like is the voice effect (1. Sometimes the music is louder than you, 2. The effect itself is covering your beautiful voice and fks up some chords which is a bit annoying). Anyway this is most likely due to lack of budget which makes sense and it's understandable. Looking forward to future projects where you've upgraded your set up!

[@dunmaglass6016]

While I understand where your coming from, the effects covering the voice I think add to the mystery of the deep sea. It gives it an uncanny sound, something we're not used to. This person is a wonderful singer, and the effects make it way more haunting.

[@TheWalkingScavenger]

awesome to this day

[@jojocosta8346]

bro you are so awesome

[@pero3156]

Man this is awsome!!! Nailed it! Could you make one for Nautilus?

[@killerdafjoe2683]

Big tin man i'll open you up like a Big tin Can (Project Pyke)

[@daliag2424]

Now i can't play Pyke in LoR withot this in the background. This is amazing.

[@adamtaurus668]

NGL Imagining what you could do with Aatrox's theme is amazing,Good job on this one

[@iamtheworstthreshskin1352]

guys I think we just found the hidden gem

[@BerniiGames]

I can no longer not hear these lyrics. I have all champion quotes permanently stuck in my head and stuff... This stuff is great! Also I'm terrible at singing but I get better at it every day. Usually I quit because my voice isn't the way I want to hear it, but you've inspired me to sing my self made lyrics on stuff too.

[@yaroslaw_channel]

COOL

[@magpie8539]

this one and rhe swain one are the bestt

[@odinopato5716]

GOAT, awesome my man, INCRÍVEL

[@marshallbernarte8216]

Can you do Swains or Fiddlesticks theme?

[@nebulus0]

Swain's should be coming up some time this year :)

[@jeffhunter12]

that start is so damn good, well done

[@thefirebrand9208]

bravo lovely.

[@gcs-yk1sg]

I feel I may be dumb to ask but still I must, are these amazing songs coming to Spotify?

[@nebulus0]

You're not the first to ask and you won't be the last, and that's on me. I still have yet to ask Riot if they'd allow what is essentially just their instrumental with added vocals on an inherently monetised platform like Spotify.

[@gcs-yk1sg]

Gotcha thank you

[@Night_BlueRL]

masterpiece

[@Zamoksva]

this is so damn good, it fits the character so well

[@simounluz5063]

dude can u try to lyrisc pyke new soundtrack on the ruin king

[@multidimensionalcenturion9863]

Another one for the playlist, just seems like there's always one more song.

[@chrupek]

epic

[@raiden631]

Nice, love it

[@BerniiGames]

I still find myself back at this video at least once or twice a week EDIT: In fact I can not not hear the lyrics when listening to the normal song, and I almost automatically start singing it every time.

[@RK-jt4yc]

wtf banger

[@aredt5656]

GJ

[@angel.on.standby]

How do I marry someone's voice? Asking for a friend...

[@hegerandras789]

AMAZING, AS A PYKE MAIN I LOVE THIS

[@uqny]

good lyrics

[@anonymeoui3248]

Can you post this on spotify, I don't know how it work but there is surely a way

[@MassisKharne]

You give me Will Wood vibes. I like that. Please keep doing what you're doing. c:

[@BerniiGames]

3rd comment on the same video, but it now appears in my personal YT recommended mix LMAO

[@thygravelord]

I want to give you money.

[@nebulus0]

this sounds like a threat to me so i'm gonna mention the ko-fi link on my channel page in a very intimidated, listen-man-i-don't-want-any-trouble sort of way

[@thygravelord]

@nebulus0 there

[@lukiklepsa6218]

A bit late. But are you going to do all the champs? Because this is amazing for backround music while playing the champs in game.

[@nebulus0]

I mean half the champs don't have themes / login screens, and a good chunk of the rest either already have vocals or are better off without them, but I'm doing what I can. As of now there are probably about 20 champs I haven't done yet that I think I could.

[@brohmomentsforever7926]

GUYS DO NOT LISTEN AUDIO LOUD IT IS LIKE A ORCESTRA

[@killerdafjoe2683]

Broooooooo that's too much

[@sobo4943]

Same

[@empmc9133]

bro i dont play lol but i know his backstory and this is heat 🔥

[@ArkesTM]

Holy shit, this gives great (creepy) vibes. Been stuck in my head since I listened to it for the first time. Ever though of doing a follow-up for this?

[@ioannisfragias7525]

Now everytime I ult as Pyke I have to say "Fear the Ripper"

[@lv4715]

Second video to hit 100K views!

[@SAM_ABDIRA]

Кайф для ушей! Приятный мотивчик реализован в песню!

[@peterrosqvist2480]
