[Intro - Irie Prophet] Yeah... Turn up the bass... From Kingston to the world... Irie Prophet... Watch the empire move... [Verse 1] Step in the place and the whole floor shake Bassline heavy make the speakers wake No imitation, we create our lane Roots in the heart but we dancehall flame I don't follow nobody I don't beg no throne Built this thing from the ground Now the vibration grown From the street to the stage From the block to the plane Everywhere we touch They remember the name Real people Real sound Real energy We don't need no crown When the bass drop low And the rhythm take control Everybody in the place Feel it deep inna your soul [Pre-Chorus] Hold on... When the bass come... Hold on... Feel the vibration... One time... [Chorus] Shotta empire We rise with the fire Bassline running Taking us higher Shotta empire Nobody can stop When Irie touch the rhythm Watch the whole place rock [Post-Chorus] Boom! Bass down low... Boom! Let the whole place know... Boom! From the roots we grow... Shotta empire... Here we go! [Verse 2] I came with a vision I came with a sound Never needed permission To shake up the ground They can talk from the sidelines While we build in the front When the rhythm start moving Everybody get up No violence in the message Just power in the sound Music is the weapon When the bass shake the ground We bring people together Different faces, one vibe When the rhythm connect us We leave differences aside [Pre-Chorus] Hold on... When the bass come... Hold on... Feel the vibration... One time... [Chorus] Shotta empire We rise with the fire Bassline running Taking us higher Shotta empire Nobody can stop When Irie touch the rhythm Watch the whole place rock [Instrumental Basshall Break] Deep bass... Heavy percussion... Reggae guitar chops... [Irie Prophet - Ad-libs] Yeah! Move! Come again! Bass! [Bridge] I don't need a million To know that I'm rich I got music in my heart And a fire that won't quit Every road that I walk Every place that I go I carry my roots Everywhere that I flow [Final Build] From Jamaica... To the world... Let the bass speak... Let the roots speak... Irie! [Final Chorus] Shotta empire We rise with the fire Bassline running Taking us higher Shotta empire Nobody can stop When Irie touch the rhythm Watch the whole place rock Shotta empire! Feel it! Shotta empire! Move it! Shotta empire! From the roots to the world! Shotta empire! We rise! [Outro] Bass still running... Roots still growing... Irie Prophet... Shotta empire...
