‘Thrown Around’ menjadi karya pertama James Blake sebagai artis independen.
Keputusannya menjadi artis indie ini merupakan buah dari kritikannya yang menganggap “dengan label besar, dia mendapat royalti yang sedikit lewat musik”.
‘Thrown Around’ ditulis oleh Dom Maker, Jameela Jamil, dan James Blake Litherland. Lagu ini merupakan penghormatan kepada musik yang ia dengarkan saat tumbuh di Inggris.

Lirik:
[Verse 1]
Getting to my wealth is getting to my health
Couldn't be myself for long
Getting to my wealth, everything that’s right
Everything that's right is wrong
As an animal, programmed or it's not programmed
There’s a gun in the small of my back
An itch you can't scratch that takes me all
Takes me all over the world
[Chorus]
Gets me thrown around
Gets me thrown around
(Gets me thrown around)
(Gets you thrown around)
[Post-Chorus]
(Around, around, around)
(Around, around, around, around)
(Around, around, around, around)
[Verse 2]
I live for a call back
History loves to rhyme
So I look to the past
For everything lasting
[Chorus]
Gets me thrown around
Gets me thrown around
[Post-Chorus]
(Around, around, around, around)
(Around, around, around, around)
[Verse 3]
It's an itch that Nietzsche can't reach
The vicar can't preach
The guru can't teach, it's all at my feet
The need to be seen is turning us green
I find and they keep, they're living my dream
I live on my screen, they’re skimming my cream
But they take me all over the world
[Bridge]
Thrown around
[Chorus]
Gets me thrown around
Gets me thrown around
[Verse 4]
I’m familiar like the cold
Like a bursting pipe
Like a bar fight
I'm familiar like a late train
Like the sentiment of a film
I’ve seen again and again
And again and again in my mind
In my mind
