We drew the map with sharpened hands
Divided earth with measured plans
Raised our banners in the sky
Named the borders “justify”
We built the towers out of fear
Stacked our victories year by year
Called expansion destiny
Called obedience unity
Order.
Structure.
Rise.
We built a kingdom.
Justice in our image.
Peace at our command.
We built a kingdom.
Mercy when it suits us.
Fire when it stands.
We forged the law from molten need
Fed it with ambition’s greed
Spoke of balance, spoke of grace
While tightening the iron embrace
We said the strong must lead the weak
Said silence is the price of peace
Every system we designed
Placed ourselves at its spine
Louder.
Wider.
Higher.
We built a kingdom.
Right becomes dominion.
Wrong is what we say.
We built a kingdom.
Hope beneath surveillance.
Light arranged in gray.
Power dressed in sacred tones.
Violence spoken soft.
We called it future.
It was force.
We built a kingdom.
Stone by stone.
Voice by voice.
We built a kingdom.
And crowned it
Choice.
I am higher than the line,
Longer than the time.
I am not a king that has a funeral,
I am just the eternal!
