| 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 |
