1000 Light Years From Here Lyrics[Intro]
Ahh, ooh
(Aaaah, oooh)

[Verse 1]
We can live underwater
It ain't hard
When you never been a part
Of the country on dry land
We used to be smarter
We taught 'em what they know
And now we got to show 'em
What it means to be American
Good life, liberty
Innovation (Innovation)
Every child
No matter what color
Gettin' an education (An education)
Now life in the hood
Is nothin' but fear
One thousand light years away from here

[Chorus]
One thousand light years from here
Oh
I'm talkin' about a peaceful resolution
One thousand light yеars away from here
One thousand light yеars from here
Come on
One thousand light years from here
We need a spiritual resolution
One thousand light years from here

[Verse 2]
You can dream in color
When you let go
Of the proverbial
"You got to crawl before you walk"
Mmm (I told you so, oh)
Listen to me now, brother
(Listen to me)
Like the motion of the stars we are
(We are)
So you might as well come on
Let's go (Let's slide)
Hey (Stop talkin')
Baby dreamin' about...
A new world order
Ahh
But it's just a nightmare
If you still got borders, oh
Wouldn't you rather have me near?
Or one thousand light years away from here

[Chorus]
One thousand light years from here
Come on
One thousand light years from here
And a peaceful resolution
One thousand light years from here

[Bridge]
Why would God make heaven so far away? (So far away)
A whole world of His children
Cryin' to Him everyday
Maybe it's time we all stop the rain
I'm just saying
Ahh, ooh

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
If you're sick of cryin'
And tired of tears
Then close your eyes
And open your ears
Listen to the music, listen to the song
Listen to your heart, is that so wrong?
Stop lookin' in the mirror, there's nothin' to fear
Your salvation is near
One thousand light years away from here
[Chorus]
One thousand light years from here
(One thousand light years away from here)
It's here
If you want to be
C'mon,hey
So what you need to do, y'all
Is start lookin' outside urself
Just clap your hands
Don't understand
But they keep sellin' lies
To keep people buyin'
You can live forever!
Without even tryin'
No more dyin'
No more
Whoo
Ooh
One thousand light years from here
(One thousand light years away from here)
(One thousand light years away from here)
(One thousand light years away from here)
(One thousand light years away from here)
(One thousand light years away from here)
One thousand light years away from here
(One thousand light years away from here)
(One thousand light years away from here)
One thousand light years away from here
One thousand light years away from here
One thousand light years away from here
(So far)
(So far away)
One thousand light years away from here
(So far away)
(Take me there)
