lyrics

SLOW

If it's starting slow
Why's my breath move so fast
Unbelievable
That this is feeling like that

And the push and pull
All along
Is taking me
Where I don't belong

And I feel it deep
but is it deep enough
And I'd like to
Take you for what you've brought

And I wanna know
Just how I can be safe
And I believe you
Is that all it's gone take

Think that's true
Prove the rest to me
Cuz I'm at the start again

Make that call
Clear a message for me
Cuz I'm at the start again

Bring that still
To the best of me
And I'll do it again

And emotions soar
Lost the cold war
Bone raw

Crossed the globe and back
With a golden axe
Grounded flat

There was the first song
So young
Tuned to match me note for note

There two blessings so hot
Clean he sweet spot
Rock and roll

Grit sand washed times
Once in a lifetime
Not enough for me

Had all the right moves
Now back to true school

If you want it bad
Here's where I'm at
Take you there my child
Ohhhh just with me

I'ma give it to you sloooooow now
and that ain't all
No that Ain't all

The knowledge dropped
Not always on top
So I see
King with crown
lost my seat
Agony of defeat
Yet I sand
On these feet
Step the world and back
And now back
To right track
My mind in
my heart's hand
I'm here to take it to the level
That I kept myself from
Full bore on the floor
Regardless of out come
And I come
To bang the drum
Till kingdom come
Steady mending till the ending
you receiving what I'm sending?

It's true
Prove the rest to me
Cuz I'm at the start again

Make that call
Clear a message to me
Cuz I'm at the start again

Bring that still
To the best of me
And I'll do it again.
