[Verse 1: Knightstalker]
Tank traps on Times Square, riots on Park Ave
Society's struck by the lightning of god's wrath
Aligned on the warpath, united by fate
It's the people who fight for their rights on this day
Strikin' back wit a vengeance, attackin' the mansions
Of the guys who are accountable for slashing their pensions
Violence ‘n aggression – reflecting the tensions
The quest for independence' the best of intentions
Tank traps on Madison, barb wires on 5th Ave
Camera's pointed at society's riff raff
Broadcasting live from the Broadway at night
The media's uncertain how to portray the fights
But this time, the revolution will be f**in' televised
‘n the f**in' institutions gettin' crushed and vandalized
‘n while the politicians emphasize their god damn alibis
It's the people who'll make the muthaf**in' sacrifice
[Hook: Knightstalker]
Tank traps on Times Square, a war in the streets
Sorrowful moments ‘n horrible scenes
New York's the battlefield ‘n the pain runs deep
Plenty red evidence on the grey concrete
[Verse 2: Knightstalker]
The mayor's shocked ‘n stuck ‘n so is the President
But they gon' strike back ‘n their motives are evident:
SWAT teams got slaughtered and robbed for their guns
‘n now they fear that the mob's gon' come for their funds
The government sends the Army ‘n the National Guard
‘n in the Central Park, paratroopers land in the dark
Snipers on the rooftop gettin' ready to start
To f**in' shoot at the people, tryin' to tear'em apart
Mad streams of blood flowin‘ into the Hudson
People dyin' for fightin' ‘gainst official corruption
Bodies lined up just like piles of muck
And the guys at the top won't give a flying f**
But this time, the revolution will be f**in' televised
It's time for retribution ‘n not time to fantasize
Cause nowhere on earth you gon' find a paradise
But it's always worth to fight and find a better life
[Hook: Knightstalker]
Tank traps on Times Square, a war in the streets
Sorrowful moments ‘n horrible scenes
New York's the battlefield ‘n the pain runs deep
Plenty red evidence on the grey concrete
[Bridge: Knightstalker]
Abrams ‘stead of drop-tops roll thru the streets
Humvees ‘stead of cop cars patrollin' the streets
Marines ‘stead of coppers controllin' the streets
Yes their road map to peace is to mould your beliefs!
