Upper West - Slow Down

Dougie:



Why we livin in fast forward, if all our time is limited you take for granted I’m just grateful to be givin it

Live fast die young with your syndicate till this thing is done I’m just happy to be livin it

I mean I take it slow, so we could soak it in cause whe I reach that door I know it will be opening

Then we goin in, confidence my only friend if you think I’m rushin then you really just don’t know me then

Speaking of rushin, now I wanna slow it down I live up in the moment so embolded by the sound

Of People talking nothin, I’m walkin they pass me running stay chillin lookin for something I could use to kill discussion

Talkin bout this and them, gossip never listening. My life is a melody, I block out all the dissonance

Cause, moneys certain to equal time so when life is going fast I vertical equal sign



Chorus JFink:



If I could slow down time this life won’t pass me by

If I could click rewind I know I’d be just fine

My love, please believe me, hit delay and take it easy

I know I need to just slow down, down, down. Slow Down



Dougie:



My whole life’s, just been a couple minutes years gone in a second then an hour it is finished

Doing what I can trying stop the room from spinnin’, just because you finish first doesn’t always mean you winnin’

I looked around and I’m slippin’ in like banana peels, runnin’ gets you nothing so I jump off the hamster wheel

Gotta have a plan to chill, yeah man for real wish the hands on the clock started standing still
But, while I see all my people celebrating I try to make it count that’s why I’m deacceleratin

So I pumped the breaks, and I upped the stakes, personally I don’t really wanna trust the race,
Cause you lose sight of all that’s important to you people and places that matter start lookin foreign to you
And so I’m cool tryna pacify cause I don’t want this life to pass me by



Chorus JFink:



If I could slow down time this life won’t pass me by

If I could click rewind I know I’d be just fine

My love, please believe me, hit delay and take it easy

I know I need to just slow down, down, down. Slow Down



Dougie:


Every time I close my eyes The world spins ten times round

So I’m tryna answer why, Can’t I just slow time down

Every single breath I take Man I’m bout to suffocate

Been so stressed of late I can’t even control my pace



So, tell me where to go next it doesn’t matter if you livin by a rolex

Cuz the hands in the middle still exist The same as every other type of brand on a wrist

And I’m tryna manipulate the tempo So I stipulate to fast then slow

Yo, put me on delay One day eventually I will find a way
