Uzuhan - Slow Down

{Verse 1}
Got a long list, been a long week
Man, I’m all in - l’m an artist
Got a strong team we’re the brawny
Grind the hardest and my God is (Good)
With this heart beat and a sharpie
And I might be in a fight for (Wood)
Chopping down trees
My mind needs a bit of peace and to be heard
Yet I can’t sleep, can’t stop
Tryna leave a John Hancock
Make a mark in the world and know that
It’s a job well done, in my thorax
I feel it rising, ambition’s high
Cheer me on and don’t kill my vibe
I’m focused and tryna keep it real
Can’t hocus pocus that for my tribe

{Pre-Chorus}
Work hard for my family
Go strong for my people
Tryna take this dream to the nations
And stand for the folks in the steeple

{but} is it all just vanity with smoke and mirrors
If you don’t enjoy the journey
You’ll miss the gold for glitter

{Chorus}
Hold on
Tell me where you’re going?
You’re moving so fast, you’re moving so fast
You’ll miss on this moment
Hold on
Tell me where you’re going?
You’re working so much, you’re working so much
You’ll miss on this moment

{Chorus 2}
Slow down, my friend
Hold on
You're taking this for granted
Don't miss out on this moment
Slow down, my friend
Hold on
You're taking this for granted
Don't miss out on this moment - slow down

{Verse 2}
Sometimes I try to prove people wrong
When they laugh and diss on my trade
What do they know about thriving
While others doubt about your whole aim?
Target practice, my pride is shot just for target practice
My soul can live, but I’m feeling damaged
My dignity is so low and maimed
(Oh no) I guess I’m just seen as a dreamer, a little bit crazy and bold
(Oh no) a living example of risking a lot without losing my soul
(Oh no) I got work to do, my God behind me, got fire rising
Just oxidizing these coals
I come alive, no stopping me from my goals

{Pre-Chorus}
Work hard for my family
Go strong for my people
Tryna take this dream to the nations
And stand for the folks in the steeple

{but} is it all just vanity with smoke and mirrors
If you don’t enjoy the journey
You’ll miss the gold for glitter

{Chorus 1}
Hold on
Tell me where you’re going?
You’re moving so fast, you’re moving so fast
You’ll miss on this moment
Hold on
Tell me where you’re going?
You’re working so much, you’re working so much
You’ll miss on this moment

{Chorus 2}
Slow down, my friend
Hold on
You're taking this for granted
Don't miss out on this moment
Slow down, my friend
Hold on
You're taking this for granted
Don't miss out on this moment - slow down

{Bridge x2}
You can get your money back
But remember that your time is gone forever
You can get your money back
But remember not to miss out on this moment - slow down
