The Emperor

Are you the mighty Emperor
That sits on his throne of rock
The one that seems to be the leader
We all want to be

Are you that Emperor
That shows off enthusiasm and energy
That is only a smoke screen for your
Tyranny and demands

Are you the Emperor
That looks at his throne as solid foundation
Not seeing the throne as also a trap
A stagnant point that has you feeling discontent

Are you the Emperor
That too late will recognize
You own unhappiness
Of sitting on your throne up high
And looking down on the rest of us

Are you?
