Empire Queensrÿche

[Spoken]
Next message: Saved Saturday at 9:24pm
Sorry, I’m just... it’s starting to hit me like a, um... um... two ton heavy thing

[Verse 1]
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
I tell you right now, they've got nothing to lose
They're building empire

[Verse 2]
Johnny used to work after school
At the cinema show
Gotta hustle if he wants an education
Yeah he's got a long way to go
Now he's out on the streets all day
Selling Crack to the people who pay
Got an AK-47 for his best friend
Business the American way

[Pre-Chorus]
East side meets West side downtown
No time, the walls fall down
