[Verse 1] Yeah, life, I don’t know what it means All I know is: when it’s over you’re free See my boy caught a bullet inside his chest I’m just hoping he breathes I’m just hoping he was lucky as me But I really hate to say it, man Hope just ain’t enough sometimes I’ve been moving fast, be pressing my luck some times My grandpa pa**ed away, I never got to say my goodbyes Wish I could, see him again even for just one time And I promise, I won’t say “I’m busy” and make excuses And I won’t show up late and leave early like I used to And I won’t take the word you said for granted I would use them, But why we never show How much we love them til’ we lose them? Slow Down.. [Hook] I just think I need to slow down I just think I need to slow it down I just think I need to slow down I just think I need to slow it down You feel, what I feel I think I’m moving way too fast Lately, fast lately Homie, I’ve been trynna’ slow down, slow down Homie, I’ve been trynna’ slow down, slow down Homie, I’ve been trynna’ slow down, slow down Down, down Homie I’ve been trynna’ slow down, slow down [Verse 2] Yeah, to me you worth more than the stars and the planets This for all the times that I took you for granted
