Empire

It's a cold New York winter night
I step onto the street and take flight
High on life I'm like nothing can stop me
Nothing can stop us No one can stop me
I'm the same person that I've always been
Misunderstood but not completely innocent
I'm getting older though a little bit
wiser a little bit sharper Yeah just a little better
I see our EMPIRE from these light up skies
This kingdom of hardships that we can't deny
I was a stranger from a foreign place
I found my home here I found my self my grace
The other pieces of my soul
It's been a long hard road that
I did not pave alone
There still a ways to go
But like I said nothing can stop me
Nothing can stop us No one can stop me
Without friendship and loyalty I cannot be me
This kingdom is empty without
Family And love You could sweep all under the rug
We could never rise above
I don't want to wake up from this dream
But when I do I know I'll have what
I need to succeed and grow and follow my destiny
I never crowned myself the king of anything
Still you call us kings
If we must lead we will by example indeed
My EMPIRE is your EMPIRE
