Saint Godfather - The Empire Is Gone Lyrics

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?
