Empire Lyrics - Asking Alexandria

They tell me life is short 

In the blink of an eye we come and die 

Keep it in mind that life is war 

Stay grounded, fly and soar 

Always know what you fighting for 

Aging fast, gotta pave a path and go figure out what my life is for 

Quick-witted, and everyday I gotta switch lanes 

Fuck race, no pigment, I got thick skin, making big waves 

Positive being positive is my legacy 

Pray for me or make way for me 

Because I'm setting out to go change the Earth and I just may 

My life is was I call it, and I call it successful 

Now everybody wanna eyeball it 

Like "How the fuck he do that though?" 

Take pride in your every action 

Everyday of my life is work 

And they tell me that time is money 

But only I know what that time is worth

Even if the sky was falling down 

Even if the sky was falling, I'm not falling down 

I stand tall through it all 

I've risked too much to just give up now 

I'm pushing on through 

Sure as the tide rolls in at night 

I'll still be here at the end of days screaming at the sky 

Let the fire consume and cleanse what's before me 

Behold, I'll build my empire before the ashes hit the ground 

Life inside a piece of paper, live it through my pen and pad 

Lead inside my pencil like the hammer on my pistol back 

There ain't no hitting back 

Life it ain't no tennis match 

All over the net but that ain't where I do business at 

Face to face with adversity and intimidation 

This is real, this is raw, ain't no imitation 

No limitations ain't a ceiling in sight 

There ain't no rules or regulations either yield or you fight 

Just take a look at where I been that's some appealing advice 

Cause you can build until it falls or keep it real and you rise

Even if the sky was falling down 

Even if the sky was falling, I'm not falling down 

I stand tall through it all 

I've risked too much to just give up now 

I'm pushing on through 

Sure as the tide rolls in at night 

I'll still be here at the end of days screaming at the sky 

Let the fire consume and cleanse what's before me 

Behold, I'll build my empire before the ashes hit the ground 

Sure as the tide rolls in at night 

I'll still be here at the end of days screaming at the sky 

Let the fire consume and cleanse what's before me 

Behold, I'll build my empire before the ashes hit the ground 

ashes hit the ground 

ashes hit the ground 

ashes hit the ground 

ashes hit the ground 

ashes hit the ground 

Sure as the tide rolls in at night 

I'll still be here at the end of days screaming at the sky 

Let the fire consume and cleanse what's before me 

Behold, I'll build my empire before the ashes hit the ground 

I'll build my empire before the ashes hit the ground 

Even if the sky was falling down 

ashes hit the ground 

ashes hit the ground 

ashes hit the ground 

ashes hit the ground 

ashes hit the ground 

Even if the sky was falling down
