Empire Within
Empires: they rise, then they fall,
nothing can't change their fate.
Even the Ancient Rome
ended in a pitiful grave.
Fools want to rule the world,
claiming the foreign lands,
but waves of time will destroy
the castles they build on sand.
And us - we can save ourselves
from architects of demise
and never give up - never fail,
but in spite of them - always rise!
And no one will take our home,
and no one will make us slaves,
for Freedom is in our souls,
and runs in our blood, our veins.
Let's build the Empire within,
the strongest country of all.
The island no tyrant will take,
no enemy will reach its shores.
No matter how much I have lost,
my head high I'll always hold.
For everything I need to be free
is here - in my heart, in my soul.
