Slow Down

[Verse 1]
With your hands full of bags as you walk out the mall, do you feel six, seven, eight–ten feet tall, like now you’re worth lovin, like life is worth livin, like what you was, you wasn’t/ like all’s been forgiven/ It’s wild, thinkin they could sell all that at the store/ she looked me in my eyes, smiled, and she said “for sure”/ I sure wish that I could show her that she’s so much more/  but the glare from the mirror would say more/

It said you’re beautiful when you put that on/ and you drop it like it’s hot when they play that song/ and all the players make it rain and the clouds are gone (ironic, they make it rain, but the clouds are gone) / It said you’re lovely when you make that face/ with your Mac eye shadow, fake lashes in place / I sure wish that I could show her all the beauty she wastes/she said “they sell beauty at the store next to the plates/ and these fools ain’t forkin’ wit’ me I afford more of it/my religion is Christian / Dior / I love it—what of it?/give the haters more than they can stomach/and I buy it brand new, not when the price plummet…”

[Chorus]

we don’t like it unless it’s brand new, we don’t like it unless it’s brand new, brand new, we don’t like it unless it’s brand new, but brand new was so true when they told you you need to slow down, down They said you need to slow down down, slow, slow down, down

[Verse 2]

the I-phone in your hand as you make that call, do you feel six, seven, eight–ten feet tall, like now you’re worth lovin, like life is worth livin, like what you was, you wasn’t/ like all’s been forgiven?/it’s wild, thinkin they could sell all that at the store/he looked me in my eyes, smiled, and he said “for sure”/ I sure wish that I could show him that he’s so much more/but the glare from the stares would say more/ they said you’re so sexy when you turn that on/in something that my man could never afford to have worn/ so what u doin later? call me up, we can get it on/ you lookin like a good father for my next born/ he’s worn out runnin track next to the Joneses/ always with the latest in accessories and phones, it’s/ so perpetual, they runnin in place/he said “so what if I’m a rat, at least I’m in the race”

[Chorus]

I said your car too fast/let off the gas/be-before you know it/your life done passed/cuz you spent it at the mall/lived it at the store/you’ve never really known what life is for / I said you’re too (too) fast/ let off the gas/be-before you know it, your life done passed/cuz you spent it at the mall/lived it at the store/you never really knew what life was for/ Slow down Slow Down Down Down Slow down Slow Down Down down With your hands full of bags as you walk out the mall, do you feel 6,7,8—10 feet tall, like now you’re worth lovin, like life is worth livin, like what you was, you wasn’t/ like all’s been forgiven? . . .
