Empire Lyrics


In national elections
In songs raised on high
With stirring emotions
As tears fill your eyesIn democratic fever
For national defense
I am a mountain 3X
Like birds upon a fence 2XYoung artists and writers
Please heed the call
What's good for business
Is good for us allAnd as it is in Nature
So it is in life
The weak among us with perish 3X
The strong alone will survive 2XVoices like thunder
Decisions like steel
The past and the future
They belong to us allFrom every mountain
The water and the air
The world that we've created 3X

By working hand in hand 2X
