Empire in Red

[Intro – Whisper Chant] Marching drums, sirens in the dark, Voices rise — no faith, no spark. Hands up, hearts cold, eyes wide — The empire bleeds from the inside. [Verse 1] Silver tongues preaching fear in the name of grace, Crosses drippin’ gold while they hide their face. Flags burn slow under neon lies, Freedom sold cheap where the truth dies. Broken promises, televised faith, They baptize hate in a holy lake. Crowds chant loud but the words are chains, The system smiles while it feeds the pain. [Pre-Chorus] Hear the streets cry — thunder in the wires, Every spark we light fuels the fires. We ain’t blind, we ain’t still, We the ones they tried to kill. [Chorus – Chant Hook] Rage! (Hey!) Rise! (Hey!) Tear down the kingdom of disguise! Rage! (Hey!) Rise! (Hey!) No more silence, no more lies! From ashes we stand, unbroken we scream, This is not a nightmare — it’s the American dream. [Verse 2] Red hats, black hearts, white fear, blue steel, Power ain’t holy — it’s just a deal. Prophets on screens sellin’ false salvation, Preachin’ love while they build segregation. Blood in the soil, ghosts in the schools, The crown gets heavy when it’s made of fools. Every voice that speaks gets buried in shame, But we still shout — remember our name! [Bridge – Tango Breakdown] (Bandoneón & Strings break – rhythmic spoken word) Dancing with devils in designer suits, Tango of power, step on the roots. Hear the rhythm of control and fear, But revolution’s breath is near. [Drop – EDM Explosion] (Aggressive chanting / call & response) We! Won’t! Kneel! Steel hearts made real! We! Won’t! Break! Every chain they make! [Final Chorus – Chant + Rap Layer] Rage! (Hey!) Rise! (Hey!) Tear down the empire built on lies! Rage! (Hey!) Rise! (Hey!) No false prophets in disguise! The fire inside will never fade, We the storm — we the renegade! [Outro – Spoken, low tone] Echoes fade, but the streets remember, The truth don’t die — it just waits for December. Empires fall, justice ascends, The revolution starts where the silence ends.
