Testo Empire

Another night in New York
I find it hard to stand tall
The skyscrapers, they do just fine

Another stage, a spotlight
The empty streets, the late nights
They ask me why I waste my time
Cause I wanna build a place, an empire
It's taking shape, it's worth the wait

I see my name in those stars
Walking down the boulevard
I believed it all my life

Which billboard would I choose
In the land of the Delta Blues
I know I have to get this right

Cause I wanna build a place, an empire
It's taking shape, it's worth the wait

Cause we're gonna build a place, an empire I always believed it was waiting for me

They said the label might come to my show tonight
And this feels like my time to shine, I laid it on the line
And somethings changed tonight
I'll be standing tall this time

I wanna build a world, an empire
It's taking shape, it's worth the wait

Cause we're gonna build a world, an empire
I always believed it was waiting for me

Oooh
Oooh
Oooh

I went and built a world, an empire
I always believed it was waiting for me
