[Intro]
He smiles for the camera
He adjusts his tie
Says peace is a product
And the price is high

[Verse]
No crown on his head, no sword in his hand
Just a legal department and a hunger for land
He talks like a banker, he moves like a tank
With a flag in his pocket and a blood-red bank

He calls it protection, he calls it a deal
He signs with a pen made of hunger and steel
He says weak little nations should learn how to bend
Then he calls every hostage a strategic friend

[Pre-Chorus]
The lights go white
The anchors nod
The markets clap
For the new false god

[Chorus]
He’s an empire in a suit
With a smile like a loaded gun
Empire in a suit
Selling shadows to the sun
Empire in a suit
He don’t need a throne to rule
Just a camera, just a contract
And a world he thinks is fooled

[Verse]
She waits by the stage door with questions in ink
His guards close the hallway before she can think
He says freedom is costly, but power is clean
Then laughs like a vulture on a news magazine

He turns every island to a number on screen
Every family’s future to a fuel routine
He points at the poor like they’re pawns in a game
Then hides every corpse behind national aim

[Pre-Chorus]
The lights go white
The anchors nod
The markets clap
For the new false god

[Chorus]
He’s an empire in a suit
With a smile like a loaded gun
Empire in a suit
Selling shadows to the sun
Empire in a suit
He don’t need a throne to rule
Just a camera, just a contract
And a world he thinks is fooled

[Instrumental]
Bassline marches under neon signs
Guitar cuts wires, drumbeat climbs
Broadcast voices tear and fade
Static in the motorcade

[Bridge]
He says order
She hears chains
He says profit
She hears names
He says border
She hears graves
He says stronger
She hears slaves

[Breakdown]
Take off the tie
Take off the grin
Take off the flag
Show us the sin
Take off the speech
Take off the lie
There’s an empire underneath
And it wants the sky

[Build-up]
She prints the headline
She breaks the frame
The suit catches fire
But not from shame

[Chorus]
He’s an empire in a suit
With a smile like a loaded gun
Empire in a suit
Selling shadows to the sun
Empire in a suit
He don’t need a throne to rule
Just a camera, just a contract
And a world he thinks is fooled

[Chorus]
Empire in a suit
Hear the streets refuse
Empire in a suit
No more polished news
Empire in a suit
Your language won’t absolve
Every stolen border
Has a people who evolve

[Outro]
He smiles for the camera
She stares at the feed
A suit is still armor
When it marches with greed
