Our Empire

[Intro]
(Punchy dembow beat, finger snaps)
Unmarked on the atlas, unseen on the chart,
this kingdom is pulsing right inside the heart.
No matter what cards we are dealt from the start,
we’re building an empire that won’t fall apart.
[Melodic break]

[Verse 1]
(Crisp flow, percussive emphasis)
You won’t find our blueprints in papers or files —
we rule where the systems collapse and derail.
Every woman is born with a crown on her head,
not forged out of bowing, but from the wounds that she bled.
They told us: «Be quiet, sit still in your place!»
We answered: «We’re running our own kind of race.»
We don’t want what isn’t ours — we just want to be free,
to break through the walls of what they want us to be.
But even the strongest will face a dark storm,
when shadows roll in and the cold replaces the warmth.
Fists clench in the silence, the light fades away,
and fear whispers darkness to lead us astray.
I wrestled my fears through the black of the night —
fear hardened like ice when I tried to fight.
Till I dropped my weapons and let go of the stress:
real power is born when we own our weakness!
[Pre-Chorus]
(Rising bass, soaring vocals)
I opened my hands and the chains fell away —
the very same words that had locked me away.
Right there on the floor where I felt so alone,
I ignited my light and I claimed my own throne!
[Chorus]
(Explosive dance beat, vibrant vocals)
Look at me now — I am burning inside!
My empire is light — there is nowhere to hide!
I step from the shadows, I breathe in the air,
I don’t ask for permission to stand anywhere!
We are strong in our softness, grounded and deep,
no envy or sorrow to drag down our feet.
Every woman’s a sun! Every woman’s a peak!
Ignite your own light — it’s the power you seek!
[Melodic break]

[Verse 2]
(Swaying reggaeton beat, deep conviction)
I let go of fear and the world caught its breath,
the darkness surrendered its stranglehold and death.
A memory flashes through rain and through years,
where my mother’s soft whisper dissolves all my fears:
«Just live!» Joy is never a stroke of luck,
it’s choosing your path when you think that you’re stuck.
Stop chasing the shadows of somebody else,
stop measuring worth on somebody else!
Forgive every loss, let the heavy fog clear —
you’re a treasure, a miracle, standing right here!
[Bridge / Challenger Drop]
(Heavy staccato bass, sharp delivery)
You are no one’s shadow!
You are a new day!
You are the lesson!
You clear your own way!
Alive and authentic, no copy, no clone —
your strength is in being entirely your own!
So square up your shoulders! Reach for the sky!
We write our own story — we’re born to fly!
[Final Chorus]
(Maximum energy, choral backing)
Look at us now — we are burning inside!
Our empire is light — there is nowhere to hide!
We step from the shadows, we breathe in the air,
we don’t ask for permission to stand anywhere!
Strong in our vulnerability, bright in the dark,
we stay true to our height, we carry the spark!
Every woman’s a sun! Every woman’s a peak!
Ignite your own light — wake up and speak!
[Melodic break]

[Outro]
(Beat fades, trailing voice over bass click)
Unlock your empire…
It’s not on any map.
Yet it holds the whole world in its hands
and burns in billions of hearts.
Ignite your light.
And wake up.
