Last night the word came down Ten dead in Chinatown Innocent, their only crime was Being in the wrong place at the wrong time Too bad, people say What's wrong with the kids today Tell you right now they've got nothing to lose They're building empire Johnny used to work after school At the cinema show Gotta hustle if he wants an education Yeah, he's got a long way to go Now's he's out on the street all day Selling Crack to the people who pay Got an AK-47 for his best friend Business the American way Eastside meets westside downtown No time the walls fall down Can't you feel it coming Empire Can't you hear it calling Black man trapped again Holds his chains in his hand Brother killing brother For the profit of another Game point nobody wins Decline, right on time What happened to the dream sublime Tear it all down we'll put it up again Another empire Eastside meets westside downtown No time, no line, the walls fall down Can't you feel it coming Empire Can't you hear it coming Empire Can't someone here stop it
