Wu Zetian: Empress of the Dawn

[Verse 1] In the halls of power, where shadows play, A concubine rose, through the night and day, Wu Zetian, with a mind so keen, From the palace walls to the Emperor's queen. [Pre-Chorus] She whispered in the dark, her plans so grand, With a will of iron, she'd take command, (Oh, Wu Zetian, oh, Wu Zetian) She'd rule the land with an iron hand. [Chorus] Wu Zetian, the Empress of the dawn, With her wisdom and strength, she carried on, Promoting merit, justice, and peace, In her reign, the power would never cease. [Verse 2] Emperor Gaozong fell, and she took the helm, Guiding the empire, she wore the crown and realm, Declared herself Emperor, in the year of 690, Her legacy, a tale of strength and plenty. [Pre-Chorus] She whispered in the dark, her plans so grand, With a will of iron, she'd take command, (Oh, Wu Zetian, oh, Wu Zetian) She'd rule the land with an iron hand. [Chorus] Wu Zetian, the Empress of the dawn, With her wisdom and strength, she carried on, Promoting merit, justice, and peace, In her reign, the power would never cease. [Bridge] Controversy and whispers, they tried to tear her down, But she stood tall and proud, never lost her crown, (Oh, Wu Zetian, oh, Wu Zetian) Her legacy, in history renowned. [Chorus] Wu Zetian, the Empress of the dawn, With her wisdom and strength, she carried on, Promoting merit, justice, and peace, In her reign, the power would never cease. [Outro] In the annals of history, her name will shine, Wu Zetian, a ruler so divine, (Oh, Wu Zetian, oh, Wu Zetian) Her story lives, through the sands of time.
