Ugly Duckling - Slow the Flow lyrics

[Andy Cooper] Uh-huh! Just relaxing! Yeah, feels good Uh-huh, kinda funky Here we go! [Dizzy Dustin] + (Andy Cooper) It's half past eight and you're late for work Your stopped in gridlock and you're going berserk (Uh-huh) Put in overtime five days a week (Okay) Pullin' out your hair for stress relief But you gotta compete so you get no sleep (Yup) You want the good life but it don't come cheap (Nope!) Climbin to the top of the totem pole You'll fall and break your neck man slow the flow [Andy Cooper] Now I'm from southern California, home of the laid back We don't go lookin' for a needle in a haystack And I say that in a subdued mood Kick it on the beach, eat a little Mexican food But you, I don't understand, what's the rush? All flushed Mad like you missed the bus Another one's comin' in about ten minutes Man you don't gotta push yourself to the limit [Chorus: Andy Cooper] Slow the flow, relax your mind Gain control, take your time Slow the flow, relax your mind Gain control, take your time [Andy Cooper] Uh-huh, uh-huh Yeah! (*Young Einstein cuts'n'scratches*) "Slow the flow!" Uh-huh "I like to let my rhymes flow!" - - ]Rakim "Slow your flow!"

(Oh yeah, say what) Let's get outta here! (Yeah, oh yeah, say what? Yeah, oh yeah, say what? Yeah..) And one, a two, three, four, five, a six A seven, a eight (Yeah!) Here are some of the ways we survive (Alright!) There's always shoplifting at the ? Pay for a pack of gum and steal a steak Or insecurity is too close by (What you going do?)
