B.o.B - New York, New York lyrics

This is the finish, my friend
This is the end
It's a revolution, it's a civilian revenge
There's no need to move
Or adjust your television
Whenever an era dies, another era begins
These American fights, these American wars
These American stripes, these American stars
But these American cages have American bars
We hunger for truth, so we headed for y'all
Towers are crumbling, bridges are falling
Limit's are fading, the normal is boring
Looking at time move progressively forward
Look at the days just, just vanish before me
You wanted a Benz but you couldn't afford it
Now you would kill to put
Your foot in a Taurus
It's different from the madness
And never look backwards
But this is a crisis, prepare for disaster

Start spreading the news
(Start, start, start
Start spreading the news) i'm leaving today
(And I'm gone, and I'm gone
And I'm gone just like that)
I want to be a part of it
(Be, be, be, be, yeah) new York, New York
New York

Breaker breaker 9, breaker breaker 1, 9
Could you please
Get a operator on the phone line?
This is not a riot
It's way much more than that
These people are dying, we are under attack
Wait, let me call you back
Let me get my strap
'Cause we ain't taking shit
So therefore we're fightin' back
We ain't waitin' on the line for a 9-1-1
9, 9, whatever man, I ain't got time
For all this nonsense, enemy responses
Ain't a dial tone in a home on the continent
Got me in these bandages
This jungle is up under me
Man I swear they sleeping, they unconscious
Or they slumberin'
So we break the peace to get a
Piece of what we want to get
Act like we new to this
Like we gon' rummage it
Let them know we run this shit
And let them know this how you
Feel the way your country is
Now look how beautiful destruction is pOW

Start spreading the news
(Start spreading the news) i'm leaving today
(I'm leaving, I'm leaving, yeah)
I want to be a part of it
(Be a part of New York)
New York, New York (New York) new York
