"Sorry, I'm just... its certainty hit me like a...
Two tone heavy thing")
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
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
East side meets West side downtown
No time, the walls fall down
Can't you feel it coming? (Empire)
Can't you hear it calling?
Black man, trapped again
Holds his chain in his hand
Brother killing brother for the profit of another
Game point, nobody wins
Declines, right on time
What happened to the dream sublime?
Tear it all down, we'll put it up again
Another empire
East side meets West side 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?
"In fiscal year 1986/87
Local, state and federal governments spent a combined total of 16.6 billion dollars on law enforcement
Federal law enforcement expenditures ranked last in absolute dollars
And accounted for only 6% of all federal spending
By way of comparison, the federal government spent 24 million more on space exploration
And 43 times more on national defense and international relations, than on law enforcement"
Can't you feel it coming? (Empire)
Can't you hear it calling? (Empire)
Can't you feel it coming? (Empire)
Can't you hear it calling? (Empire)
Can't you feel it coming? (Empire)
Can't you hear it calling? (Empire)
Can't you feel it coming? (Empire)
Can't someone here stop it? (Empire)
