I don’t want an empire capturing eyes
I’ve built up a kingdom to my ideal size
I don’t need 10 million to be filthy rich
Enough to live comfortably scratches that itch
Not looking for more than the mind can conceive
There’s cash on the table I’m alright to leave
Not trying to achieve some impossible feat
It’s okay with me to not be some elite
I don’t want a crown or to sit on a throne
When everything’s done, all my dreams are at home
I Don’t Want An Empire (poem)
