Empire Lyrics by Madball

Empire

2010

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 lit 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 see our empire from these lit 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

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
My empire is your empire
Indeed
