Empires Video (MV)

Empires weren't built in a day
That suits me fine
I wouldn't have it any other way
Some things take time
Except when my heart's on the line
Except when my mind is plain dying
Except when my soul is on fire
Except when it's down to the wire... over you
Don't you know I'm hurting
Can't you see me through
You know that I'm beholden
Can't you take me though
There's a story from a long time ago about a young girl
Who don't know nothing yet, but he said she outta know
Sometimes you gotta roll the dice... it's fate
Sometimes they come up fiery yellow
Don't wanna talk about it
You just daydream about i
Ya think you should be boring
You want to flat ignore me
I wanna be about it
I wanna scream and shout it
I wanna jump up and down
And run round and be a clown... for you
You are my fantasy... you know it's true
So tell me what it is... that I gotta do
Coz I done rolled over to be supplicant
Don't want to be penitent, hesitant, or come unzipped
It's all up in my head, my mind is yours
To correct, yours to inspect
Coz you're straight and pure
That's not to say you're not a bad girl too
I can tell that about you
And I'd change my life for you... coz you're one thing for sure
You are my fantasy... you know it's true
So tell me what it is... that I gotta do
I said are you down
You make me feel down
You got me turned down
To a dull glow
You have me real bad
You ape me feeling slow
You make me so
So... girl
You got me feeling low
So I got only only two things left to tell you
This love is over... And I'm over you
Said I'm over you
Yeah I'm over you
Said I'm over you
If you believe me now, I got another one for you anyhow
It's about a man who was locked-in and quite secure
Until you smiled and barreled right through the door
And even if that don't sound quite so bad
There's many other considerations to be had
And lot of morality that needs to be shed
But the poison crept the spine and slowly kills the head
I'm not over you
There's no over you
You already know that's the thing about you
I was made for you. I'm a fool for you
But I'd have to hurt myself and others to leave this coma
If there were a mantra, it would be que sera sera
