[Verse 1] Pay me, your Silk Road tolls I own China, us nomads run the globe Largest land empire, it’s prospering though you dread the “steppes” we took Grandpa Genghis Khan unified our clans, got our laws organized Chose men by skill, not family ties, trained us in battle groups With war declared, riding horses, lеtting arrows fly, soon your kingdom’s terrorized You’ll submit to spare livеs Now our lands tie to east and west [Chorus] We have a tight rein as trade expands, I love when merchants pass by Cause it’s tax time [Bridge] Cause it’s tax time [Verse 2] Conquering like grandpa, we’ve made servants of the Koryo, Slavs and Persians Crushed Baghdad, but Muslims convert us, we tolerate your faiths Finally, I beat the Song Chinese, founded the Yuan Dynasty Confusians serve in my regime, but we’re first, no tests to take We’ll build up big time, the grand canal will link up to my Khanbaliq/Beijing site Rule there till the Ming rise [Chorus] Because we have a tight rein as trade expands, I almost took Japan twice, typhoons made us capsize, Stick to land fights [Bridge] Stick to land fights Hahahahaha!
