Chiddy Bang, ELDee the Don, Black Thought - Slow Down lyrics

Hey, I’m the man
Right? So I think I’m gon’ live it
Since my mother birthed me I
Have only been exquisite
And I was on the grind while
You was gettin’ the digit's
Got this down to a science
You would swear I’m livin’ physics
But my life is different
What good is the success?
If the happiness is missin’
3: 30 I am dismissin’
Any competition, cause I gotta eat
You show me a rapper
That’s someone I gotta beat
And most people red-shirt
Because they cannot compete
Think and my wing span says
Anything’s in my reach
When Atlanta was poppin’ BMF with Big Meech
I was stuck in the school
I was more that they could teach
But slow and steady wins the race
Thought I was hare
But, I’m movin’ at a tortoise pace
And that’s what I prefer
So get a cup and mix it
Up, and let it go down, i know now
That life feels better when you slow down
Slow down man I gotta slow down
There’s way to many friends that
Gossip will go round
Wish I woulda knew then what I know now
But for now
Life feels better when it’s slowed down
Man I gotta slow down
There’s way to many friends that
Gossip will go round
Wish I woulda knew then what I know now
But for now
Life feels better when it’s slowed down

Uh, I know it now, wish I knew it then
Diminished returns
I burned through a few of them
Remember when I was in a position you were in
Shit'd be different if I had
It all to do again
Oh, to be new again, young upstart
From the rough part
Tryna make his dreams come true again
I watched gold disappear while pursuin’ it
Seen cats capture the flag
Then let it ruin them
A grasshopper tryna learn kung fu again
It’s deja-vu livin’ shit I been through again
A little word from the wise
Remain true within this is from a boss
Look at where the Root’s crew has been
Yeah it’s true I got the soul of an old town
And real talk
That what come around go around
Before the drama get to large to hold down
It’s in your best interest to
Try to slow it down



Hey I’m sorry I took long
You probably could swell me sooner
And let me take the time
Out to dispel the rumors
Chiddy Bang still here
Keep it rollin’ like a victim
In a wheel chair
I’m tired of everybody that be gossipin’
They want to know if we
Making what we be profitin’
Snoop Dogg, nowadays I sip a lot of gin
And at this altitude I’m kinda low on oxygen
Maybe I need to breathe
It’s all or nothing when
You’re nothing at all
That’s the reason I’m so excessive when
I’m up in the mall
Why’s it takin so long? I got cribs to get
And don’t I lay my plot down like arithmetic
Uh, I said I done it here
And south mon is here
I was born to do this you don’t
Need to check my Punnett square
So get a blunt of what you
Want and let it go round
And know now that life feels
Better when it’s slowed down

And I’mma make it to the stars with the bars
Yellow brick road
My life the Wizard of the Oz
I know gettin’ that job is
Always gonna be hard but for now
We gonna plot to take over the world
And I’mma make it to the stars with the bars
Yellow brick road
My life the Wizard of the Oz
I know gettin’ that job is
Always gonna be hard but for now
Life feels better when it slows down
