Dave East - Slow Down lyrics

Shorty only 19, always on the night scene He don't know what life means We need to slow down Her mama says she drive her crazy She's just a baby but she's about to have a baby Slow down He can't afford it so he wanna rob He'd rather trap cause he don't want a job You need to slow down The world is yours just take your time with it Get up, go out, and let your grind get it Slow down Times changing, money motivate 'em different now I don't even see no youngings shovel when it's blizzards now '96 if I dug like four cars out, I'd cop some Nike kicks And thinking Chinese chicken, wings, and rice to get I guess the older heads ain't teaching nothing I'm burnt out myself so honestly not preaching nothing But if that trap slow get a job buy some nice shoes And hit them parties down town where them wild n***as cannot get inside Start thinking business Remember money hard to mix with friendships Once they show your interest, get your chicken Young, black, and rich they worst nightmare The government don't fight fair If your homies love you keep 'em right there Right there Shorty only 19, always on the night scene He don't know what life means We need to slow down Her mama says she drive her crazy She's just a baby but she's about to have a baby Slow down He can't afford it so he wanna rob He'd rather trap cause he don't want a job You need to slow down The world is yours just take your time with it Get up, go out, and let your grind get it Slow down Don't be 30 in your mother crib, that's bugged out Understand success gon' come with hate just get that love out And don't be influenced just because they pull some d** out Stand up on your own two, know certain things you won't do Everybody not a shooter understand that title I picked the Quran up, I couldn't understand that Bible Allah's my witness I've been through the trenches just like most of them That's why I go and smoke with them Shop and crack jokes with them I'm expecting a kid though, used to watch out the window I love when the lil homies call me big bro You living fast, need to slow it down Started getting a** and got 'em open now She thought she was in love, her heart broken now Slow down Shorty only 19, always on the night scene He don't know what life means We need to slow down Her mama says she drive her crazy She's just a baby but she's about to have a baby Slow down He can't afford it so he wanna rob He'd rather trap cause he don't want a job You need to slow down The world is yours just take your time with it Get up, go out, and let your grind get it Slow down Diamonds what the girls love They just wanna shine Copped the Rollie and the Cuban chain Living with his mom She in the club, her mother baby sit Daddy not around Fast living'll catch up quick You need to slow it down Diamonds what the girls love They just wanna shine Copped the Rollie and the Cuban chain Living with his mom She in the club, her mother baby sit Daddy not around Fast living'll catch up quick You need to slow it down Hey young world, the world, the world The world, the world, baby the world The world, the world The world is yours (Slow down, slow down)
