We were supposed to be an empire, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Lie, cheat, steal, fight, just to get home for the night
I'd do anything for the power
Lie, cheat, steal, fight, just to get home for the night
I'd do anything for the power
Time is of the essence
Hot damn it, keep me focused, keep me focused, oh no
My mind is a weapon, is a weapon
I gotta keep it loaded, keep it loaded
Power, for the power
I'd do anything for the power

I do what I want and say what I want with no apologies
Excuse me if I'm blunt, I say what I want with no apologies
Not sympathetic, I said it, I meant it, you don't like it
then I could care less
Not sympathetic, I said it, I meant it, no apologies

I gave you all of me
but it still ain't enough to make you happy
I gave you everything, it still don't measure up
What do I got to do?
I just want you to look at me
and see that I can be worth your love
I just want you to look at me
and see that I can be good enough, good enough
And see that I can be good enough, good enough

OOh, keep it movin', here we go-o-o-o
I got a body like a weapon, it goes ba-ba-bang, bang, bang
And every time that we're together
I drive you insane, insane
And I don't got time for love, and I don't got time for love
(Ain't got no time)
Keep it movin', keep it movin', keep it movin', keep it movin'
Ooh, keep it movin', here we go
Keep it movin', here we go-o-o-o

Whatever makes you happy, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whatever makes you happy, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whatever makes you happy, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whatever makes you happy, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, there, little mama, show'em how you're different

Follow my hands, noo
And I'll teach you how to play, oh yeah
I'll be patient with you, ooh
Someone who's patient with me, hmm ooh
There'll always be a chance
that you could hit the wrong note
Everybody could laugh and make you think you won't grow
You don't ever give up, it's not the end of the world
And you learn, even when you think that times get hard
It's temporary hard, all you gotta do is make that call
I'll be there, don't be scared
You don't got to lose it, remember the music

What is love?
Remember the music
With no apologies
I'd do anything for the power
I'll be there (I'll be there)
Don't be scared (don't be scared)
You don't gotta lose it
Remember the music
