Array ( [sid] => 180715 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Empire [time] => 2015-03-06 12:26:02 [hometext] => starting with ideas and making them a reality [bodytext] => Empire

Got my own empire to build
Started with nothing
Still got nothing
But reaching for something

Working for the man, who don't give a dam
Collecting, collating, creating and making
This life ain't for suckers
It's rough and tough and other stuff

To build an empire from scratch
Many plans you must hatch
Lots of fingers in pies
Early mornings and late, late nights

My empire will be supreme
Join me and my team
Living the American dream

If you can build an Empire without destruction then you truly would be wise indeed.
That would be an empire worth being part of

I'm at the start of a little personal empire-building myself, so this went down well this morning. Thanks for the inspiring phrasing.
