Empire

Queensrÿche

Revolution Calling


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??!!

Can't you feel it coming? Empire!
Can't you hear it coming Empire!
Can't someone here stop it??!!
