Empire State of Mind

I decided to reject their minds in poverty
So that I can encompass their hearts in diversity

I wanted to reject their tone with my bones
So that I can inject their phones in my soul

I prayed to reject their scrolls of stones
So that I can project their pope as a foe

I needed to reject their souls.....their doom
So that I could suggest my flow & my groom

We debated upon their importance
We deliberated upon their imports
We deliberately debated upon their thoughts
We did what we did to overcome their flaws

I wished to expose my love for their growth
So that I can expose my glow for their shows

I surprised their challenges just once more
Surprising & compromising through one door

I made up my mind to forsake their pride
So that I can make up my own kind for their tribe

I could have faced their sorrows tomorrow
To follow a savior that can lead to a hollow
Saving them using bow & arrow
Preparing for the battles...fighting the Pharoh

We shaved off our colors for them....they stared
We shaved off our wonders to care.....they dared
Why dare a man to become a bear???
Stand your ground...they said
Because we are fair

I noted their writings upon the floors
I voted for their crying using their norms

I dreamt of their desires
We dreamt of each other
I noted...they are trying
I noted that they are dying

I broke their hearts....they fell apart
I spoke my mind...they've met a child

I thought about denouncing my fate
Knowing very well...I announced my praise

I was surrounded by your grace
Made no sense to stay
Smiling in between your face
I am a doctor in a game

Realities are at play...I am a doctor with no pain
I thought about denouncing my state
We are no longer ashamed

Can I denounce my place???
We are no longer afraid

We face our rituals like religion
Of course we praise our condition like superstitions
Till death do us part
Of course we train our vision like exhibition

We strife towards perfection
We bribe towards redemption
We cry because we try
Forward into our mansion
We pass by because we are in fashion

We divide ourselves into the temptations
Better yet We drive ourselves into better relaxation
We call in our emotions during devotions
To suppress damnation
We call in our relation
It takes one congregation
We must blend in our information

A collective one
We are calling in the eyes
I painted my kingdom to come in one time
A collective one...why do we strike??
We are taught with wind chimes
I painted our kingdom to rhyme
We are caught in a bind

I wanted to forsake them
Instead I forgave them
I even tamed them
Goodness gracious...I even saved them
I only wanted to defend them
An empire state of mind
I am a good defender
