Hook:
I try to slow it down, every day I learn
To slow it down, I think before I say the words, and
I slow it down, even when it hurts
I slow it down, to bring it back down to Earth
Verse 1:
Coming back to a verse, yes I have to rehearse
But I grow as I go, going slow til I know
Every word, every line, everything takes time
Know I'm going to get mine, going to glow, going to shine
My light inside, my guide, my God
I'm God, and I've got to get this and mix this
Spit this, writ this, wrote this, don't lose
Focus, I'm hoping they know got a gold soul
If you don't don't mind
Midas never mined it, never
Finding final destiny
No rest to be found, blessed to be round
Supportive people, the more I meet y'all
The more I think that all people equal
Light inside but some people hide it
Not on purpose, they don't despise it
We don't deserve this, all the hating
And all the hurting, all the burdens
I'm learning lessons, I'm earning blessings
Turning corners and never resting

Verse 2:
Another day, going by, feeling like these days are flying
Another night, get in bed, as the pillow hits my head
I slow it down, to find more time [to love]
Send it up to to the stars above
Know myself, so I refuse to be tested [by you]
Married to rap, said my I do's
I do pledge that I will be faithful
I do pledge that I will be grateful
Not hateful, we evolving [with love]
Scared to let go of the past [yeah, it's tough]
But I'll shove you forward, got nothing to fear
Don't waver, we hover then rise above here!
Don't linger, no longer
Cause we all singers, and life a song, girl
That's why I slow it down
Hook
