  • One million light years from home
    Throwing up and feeling small
    Where have I gone and landed tonight
    I've been shot right to the core
    Of NYC and hostility yeah
    But you gotta laugh
    'Cause there's something that I cannot do without
    And it's in your hand

    Where have I gone and landed tonight
    A million light years from home
    Throwing up and feeling small
    And now I know that my mind is blown
    'Cause there's something that I cannot do without
    Something that I understand
    Yeah there's something that I cannot do without
    And it's in your hand

    Cut down shot down
    Any way you please
    Don't get nothing for free
    Big time small time
    Any way you choose yeah
    Don't mean nothing to me

    Where have I gone and landed tonight
    God give me strength
    In a land of fakes and small time petty thieves
    Must be the wrong place
    'Cause all my honesty is true yeah
    But it's gone to waste
    On a soulless superficial void
    Called the human race

    Cut down shot down
    Any way you please
    Don't get nothing for free
    Big time small time
    Any way you choose yeah
    Yeah but you gotta compete

    Where have I gone and landed tonight
    Throwing up and feeling small
    One million light years from home
    I've been shot right to the core
    Of NYC and hostility yeah
    But you gotta laugh
    'Cause there's something that I cannot do without
    And it's in your hand

    Cut down shot down
    Any way you please
    Don't get nothing for free
    Big time small time
    Any way you choose yeah
    Don't mean fuck all to me
    Yeah I've been cut down shot down
    Any way you please yeah
    Sisters and brothers please yeah
    Big time small time
    Any way you please yeah
    Don't mean nothing to me Writer/s: MARK ALEXANDER HAMILTON, TIM WHEELER
