[Verse 1]
Dante came home with the storms in his head
Bootprints of war still stuck to the bed
Heart split open, stitched with scars
Every night he fights the dark
They stabbed him back when he was down
Kicked his bones in the dirt and ground
But he kept one hand on the flame
Even with his own name caved in
[Pre-Chorus]
He don’t speak it, but it shows
In the way his silence grows
Every shadow knows his face
Every fall, he finds his place
[Chorus]
Devil can't break Dante
Devil can't take Dante
(Devil can't break)
Not this time, not today
He’s cracked, but he won’t fade
Devil can't break Dante
Devil can't take Dante
(Devil can't take)
He’s been burned and torn apart
Still beating with a shattered heart
[Verse 2]
He wakes up swinging at air
Cold sweat drippin' from a nightmare stare
Mornings hit like broken glass
Still he drags himself through the ash
He lost some faith in the way back home
Lost some friends and a place to own
But under the ruin, under the pain
There’s a man that won’t be claimed
[Pre-Chorus]
He don’t beg, he don’t bend
He just rises up again
Every wound has made him steel
Every scar reminds him he’s still
[Chorus]
Devil can't break Dante
Devil can't take Dante
(Devil can't break)
Not this time, not today
He’s cracked, but he won’t fade
Devil can't break Dante
Devil can't take Dante
(Devil can't take)
He’s been burned and torn apart
Still beating with a shattered heart
[Bridge]
If the night comes crawling close
He plants his feet and grips the ghost
If the world says stay down low
He hears one voice saying no
Not done
Not dead
Not gone yet
[Final Chorus]
Devil can't break Dante
Devil can't take Dante
(Devil can't break)
Not this time, not today
He’s cracked, but he won’t fade
Devil can't break Dante
Devil can't take Dante
(Devil can't take)
He’s been burned and torn apart
Still beating with a shattered heart
Devil can't break Dante
Devil can't take Dante
(Devil can't take)
He got knocked down, but he rose
Now the dark knows what he knows
