The Empire Is Gone

At the beginning of the story On the land of opportunity You could have anything you wanted Just work your ass and it will come to be Don't resist it, just give in Never stop chasing the American dream The dream is feeling out of reach The foundation is full of cracks Crimes committed in the name of its people The empire splits in halves Putting scapegoats behind bars Psychopaths that hide behind their masks And lies You're always posing as the guardian of democracy and peace For all your problems the solution is a war You dominate us all and rule us with an iron fist And all we're wondering is how the f*ck will you be stopped? Emperor Uncle Sam is naked And the empire can't be saved from the fall Racing against the ticking clock of destruction Can't stop the countdown, it has begun One by one your allies turn their backs Your days of glory came and passed You're always posing as the guardian of democracy and peace For all your problems the solution is a war You dominate us all and rule us with an iron fist The same old story we don't buy anymore You always bit off more than you were ever able to chew The consequences are now visible to all Now it's all failing and I don't think that you ever knew Who will you be after the empire is gone?
