Through the ashes of fallen empires We can see the shadows of failure Now I'm standing here, force of destiny! I was born to lead you out of crudity Sometimes you lose your temper And sometimes you lose a friend But in the hour of darkness Your reign will be lost again No, I'm reclaiming what is mine Gods gave me a sign They blessed with their mind But i don't give a fuck I am my own god! The golden emperor! No sun will shine forever Black holes in time And no son will be born Just another mad reign All my forefathers made one big mistake They demand allegiance with the iron stake You could say my people are not free But all they need is me They follow me into death Just out of true belief Sometimes you lose your temper And sometimes you lose a friend But in the hour of darkness Your reign will be lost again I'm reclaiming what is mine Gods gave me a sign They blessed with their mind But i don't give a fuck I am my own god! Forever! The golden emperor! Forever! The golden emperor! Rome wasn't built in a day No King born to stay Power is a virus, there is no hope I watched so many kings go by And no one was free from sin Their kingdom's destroyed Their kingdom's destroyed By only one lie I'm reclaiming what is mine Gods gave me a sign They blessed with their mind But i don't give a fuck I am my own god! Forever! The golden emperor! No sun will shine forever Black holes in time And no son will be born Just another mad reign
