Empire (2003 Digital Remaster) 歌詞
Last night the word came down ten dead in Chinatown
Innocent their only crime was being in the wrong place
At the wrong time
Too bad people say what's wrong with the kids today
Tell you right now they've got nothing to lose
They're building EMPIRE
Johnny used to work after school
At the cinema show
Gotta hustle if he wants an education
He's got a long way to go
Now he's out on the street all day
Selling Crack to the people who pay
Got an AK-47 for his best friend
Business the American way
Eastside meets Westside downtown
No time the walls fall down
Can't you feel it coming EMPIRE Can't you hear it calling
Black man trapped again hold his chain in his hand
Brother killing brother for the profit of another
Game point nobody wins Decline right on time
What happened to the dream sublime
Tear it all down we'll put it up again Another EMPIRE
Eastside meets Westside downtown
No time no line the walls fall down
Can't you feel it coming EMPIRE
Can't you hear it coming EMPIRE
Can't someone here stop it
