Slow Down (Album Version)

So far from where I started out So far from where I wanna be Listening for answers in the wind But can't find a rock to plant my feet Looking for love in all the wrong places Down on my knees and now I'm praying for patience I know there's gotta be a better way In the back of my mind I hear my mama say Chorus: Slow down baby You're going too fast You've got your hands in the air And your feet on the gas You're about to wreck your future, running from your past. You need to slow down baby (Slow down baby) Ooh, thinking the faster that I go The faster I will reach my goal The race is not given to the swift But to the one who endureth I thought that all my obstacles were behind me Walking around like I was made of diamond I tripped and fell and it reminded me To move over and let the angels guide me. (Chorus) Sometimes you gotta be still Before you can get ahead Be still Ask the universe for help Be real You can't do it all by yourself Sometimes sometimes you gotta be still And take some time to rejuvenate Be still And take some time to clear your space Be real Chaos isn't good for your health Cause I'm breaking things And I'm losing things And I lost my cell phone again the other day And I don't wanna live this way, No In the back of my mind I hear my mama say (Chorus) Slow down baby Going too fast Slow down baby Feet on the gas Slow down baby Run from the past Slow down baby Slow down baby Slow down baby
