Slow Down

Yeah [Verse 1: Chiddy] Hey, I’m the man, right? So I think I’m gon’ live it Since my mother birthed me I have only been exquisite And I was on the grind while you was gettin’ the digits Got this down to a science, you would swear I’m livin’ physics But my life is different, what good is the success? If the happiness is missin’, 3:30 I am dismissin’ Any competition, cause I gotta eat You show me a rapper, that’s someone I gotta beat And most people red-shirt, because they cannot compete Think and my wing span says anything’s in my reach When Atlanta was poppin’ BMF with Big Meech I was stuck in the school, I was more that they could teach But slow and steady wins the race, thought I was hare But I’m movin’ at a tortoise pace, and that’s what I prefer So get a cup and mix it up, and let it go down, I know now That life feels better when you slow down [Hook: elDee the Don] Slow down Man I gotta slow down There’s way to many friends that gossip will go round Wish I woulda knew then what I know now But for now, life feels better when it’s slowed down Man I gotta slow down There’s way to many friends that gossip will go round Wish I woulda knew then what I know now But for now, life feels better when it’s slowed down [Verse 2: Black Thought] Uh, I know it now, wish I knew it then Diminished returns, I burned through a few of them Remember when I was in a position you were in Shit'd be different if I had it all to do again Oh, to be new again, young upstart From the rough part, tryna make his dreams come true again I watched gold disappear while pursuin’ it Seen cats capture the flag, then let it ruin them A grasshopper tryna learn kung fu again It’s deja-vu livin’ shit I been through again A little word from the wise, remain true within This is from a boss, look at where the Root’s crew has been Yeah it’s true I got the soul of an old town And real talk, that what come around go around Before the drama get to large to hold down It’s in your best interest to try to slow it down [Chorus] . [Verse 3: Chiddy] Hey I’m sorry I took long, you probably could swell me sooner And let me take the time out to dispel the rumors Chiddy Bang still here Keep it rollin’ like a victim in a wheel chair I’m tired of everybody that be gossipin’ They want to know if we making what we be profitin’ Snoop Dogg, nowadays I sip a lot of gin And at this altitude I’m kinda low on oxygen Maybe I need to breathe, it’s all or nothing when you’re nothing at all That’s the reason I’m so excessive when I’m up in the mall Why’s it takin so long? I got cribs to get And don’t I lay my plot down like arithmetic Uh, I said I done it here and south mon is here I was born to do this you don’t need to check my Punnett square So get a blunt of what you want and let it go round And know now that life feels better when it’s slowed down [Hook] [Bridge: Chiddy] And I’mma make it to the stars with the bars Yellow brick road, my life the Wizard of the Oz I know gettin’ that job is always gonna be hard But for now, we gonna plot to take over the world And I’mma make it to the stars with the bars Yellow brick road, my life the Wizard of the Oz I know gettin’ that job is always gonna be hard But for now [Outro: elDee the Don] Life feels better when it slows down
