[Intro]
[Choir fades in. Heavy 808s.]
They said,
"Dreams don't build empires."
So I built one anyway.
---
[Verse 1]
Started with a spark in an empty room,
Now the skyline glows when I make my move.
Used to chase shadows, now they chase me,
Every closed door became my key.
I turned doubt into gasoline,
Lit the match, watched the whole world dream.
Every scar became another crown,
Every loss just slowed me down.
I remember nights with a ceiling full of questions,
Now they scream my name like it's written in the heavens.
Funny how they love you when the spotlight never fades,
They don't know the price that every victory was paid.
---
[Pre-Chorus]
Brick by brick,
Hope by hope,
Built these walls
From broken bones.
Higher and higher,
Above the fear...
Tell me—
Who can stop me here?
---
[Chorus]
Welcome to my kingdom,
Where the stars all know my name.
Every road that tried to break me
Only fed the flame.
I wear tomorrow like a crown,
Never looking down.
In this dream,
Nothing can bring me to the ground.
This is my kingdom...
This is my kingdom.
---
[Verse 2]
Gold on the skyline, fire in my chest,
Finally became everything they said I'd never be.
Every mirror tells a different story,
Every reflection wears a little more glory.
No chains around my hands,
No weight upon my soul.
Every mountain turned to dust
The second I let go.
But sometimes in the silence...
When the crowd begins to fade...
I hear a distant whisper
Calling out my name.
---
[Bridge]
Tell me...
If I never wake,
Does forever stay forever?
If this crown disappears,
Was I ever really king?
---
[Final Chorus]
Welcome to my kingdom,
Every dream has found its throne.
Built a palace from believing
I was never alone.
But somewhere past the sunrise,
Where daylight starts to sing...
I hear the walls around me
Beginning to cave in.
This is my kingdom...
Don't let it end.
---
[Outro]
[The music strips away until only piano remains.]
A faint digital crackle.
A voice, almost impossible to hear:
«"System error..."»
A single burst of static.
Silence.
