[Verse 1]
I can hear the whispers in my sleep
The voices telling me this should be mine
You, you claim you trust me
You think I don't see the doubt behind your eyes
[Chorus]
I'm gonna build me an empire
And it's lonely at the top
But madness and greatness can both share a face
And nobody will ever convince me to stop
It's my destiny
I was born to play this game
So fear me or love me
It's all the same
[Verse 2]
Try to find a chain that I won't break
A price I wouldn't pay for what I want
So you can call me calculating
You can say I've lost my mind
You can throw me to the wolves
I'll be alright
[Chorus]
I'm gonna build me an empire
And it's lonely at the top
But madness and greatness can both share a face
And nobody will ever convince me to stop
It's my destiny
I was born to play this game
So fear me or love me
It's all the same
[Bridge + Instrumental]
Just one word I'll let the world burn
Just one word I'll let the world burn
[Chorus]
I'm gonna build me an empire
And it's lonely at the top
But madness and greatness can both share a face
And nobody will ever convince me to stop
It's my destiny
I was born to play this game
So fear me or love me
It's all the same
[Outro + Instrumental]
So fear me or love me
It's all the same
