New York 1 Video (MV)

I flew across the ocean, to show I wasn't scared
I had a fancy notion, but I was not prepared
I had a lot to prove, that I was not defined
I came to find the groove, eyesight to the blind

I met her on the corner, down by first avenue
A lost and knowing daughter, I didn't have a clue
She asked what I was doing, she took me by the hand
Along the road to ruin, a yellow taxi stand

And I can see her now, leading me on
And when I hear her voice, I am gone

She said
Now that you're here boy
Are you just gonna take a look?
Welcome to New York baby
Dive into my guide book
When you see that apple
Don't just lick it light
Do what I do
Take a big bite

The sirens never stop, the screaming in the night
I headed for the drop, she gave me insight
The people up above, bring in the higher thrills
How much is she in love? Count the dollar bills

And I can see her now, leading me on
And when I hear voice, I am gone

She said
Now that you're here boy
Are you just gonna take a look?
Welcome to New York baby
Dive into my guide book
When you see that apple
Don't just lick it light
Do what I do
Take a big bite

Now that she's taken me away from all my demons
Senses on overload, I got a hundred reasons
To walk into the day, run into the night
Live the high life, take a big bite

She said
Now that you're here boy
Are you just gonna take a look?
Welcome to New York baby
Dive into my guide book
When you see that apple
Don't just lick it light
Do what I do
Take a big bite
