I want to wake up
In a city that doesn’t sleep
Most people tend to tread around certain people in their neighbourhoods, not living too closely with each other. Other’s couldn’t give a damn and will live with whoever they have to for things to run smoothly.
In a city as big as New York, you can imagine how high the crime rates should be; but in one certain parts of the city, they seem to be lowering dramatically. Is that because of the amazing police work being carried out? Or are people just too afraid to report a crime nowadays?
Rumour has it that there are a few in this small part of Manhattan who live above the law; and have many members of the police along with other civil servants, prosecutors, judges, jurors on their payroll.
Not everyone takes too kindly to the cash handouts from these petty crooks, and choose to deliver the police work that they swore to in the very beginning. One of these people is Michael Crocetti. He is a 5th generation Cop and has sworn to uphold to law by any means necessary. However tempting the gifts from the lowlifes of this city may be, Michael keeps out of it and does the work which is expected of him.
Another who doesn’t agree with these payouts is Tommy DeLuca. He is a young, bright eyed Detective who will protect his city No matter what. His main reason for dismissing the payouts however isn’t to do with the whole ‘Protect and Serve’ routine; it’s for his younger sister. He tries to make sure that no matter what childhood he had, she isn’t going to have the same as him.
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
And make a brand new start of it
New York, New York
The families of this place are what are keeping it together. Aside from the corruptness and crime in New York; these Detectives know that at the end of the day, they can go home and be with the people who actually appreciate what they are doing for their city.
