Slow Video (MV)

I'm stressin'
Feel like I'm battling the great depression
Sometimes I do forget to count my blessing
About to tell a man behind bars that death is present
While I complain of my short comings and all my debtors

Mind is everywhere
Ain't been home in a long time
Numb to emotions
I'm always in the cross fire
I try to run away
The fence covered with barb wire
I got caught a while ago
I still don't walk right

I learned to trust nobody
Can't even trust myself
Cause when I do, I'm falling
Everything I choose, appalling
When I think that I'm a move, I'm stalling

Scream or cry
Scream or cry
I'm over here acting like a diva, why?
I'm tryna build a house
But want to leave the site
Life is a war
I want to leave the fight

Slow... down...
Breath, it's gonna be okay and
You don't have to worry just have patience
God is gonna come and save ya
Just

Slow... down...
This ain't the end of yo life
It'll work out when it is time
It's gonna be alright
Bridge

Slow... down...
(Slow down now)
(Please)
(Don't you worry)
(Don't you worry)
(Skrrrrrrrrr)
Slow Down Now

Why
Why should I believe?
The one who hurt me
I look at 'em, and they're running free
I cry every night
Because the wounds are so deep
The pain is tormenting
I wanna hang the noose from the tree

Give me one reason
You know that life ain't fair
You preaching the bible, but
You know that Christ ain't care
We dying in the streets
While you recite that prayer
I know every word I tell him
He probably sighs and stares

It's my nightmare
I wake up, it's my nightmare
Lord knows
The devil does not fight fair
In spite, you try to persuade me
God's right there
Then have me interlock my fingers
Hoping God might care

But he don't care
Because of my skin color
I'm shot by others
Who swore to protect my brothers
I have no lovers
Just selfish people undercover
They stab my stomach
And walk away like I meant nothing

Slow...down...
This aint the end of yo life
It'll work out when it is time
It's gonna be alright

Slow... down...
(Slow down now)
(Please)
(Don't you worry)
(Don't you worry)
(Skrrrrrrrrr)
Slow Down Now

I hear you, I hear you
Though I ain't even near you
I can feel your pain
And I understand you're fearful
Everything you've been through
Said hurt won't disappear, you
Tried to be optimistic
But always left feeling dismal

You feel your man can't hear you
He's causing you pain
But you try not to appear to
Show all of the brokenness
Death came to your window
You try to be happy
But it's hard when you lost your kinfolk

Nobody wants to empathize
The homie lost his nephew
They dismissed his cries
It's easy to say someone's crazy
When you miss the signs
That they're in agony
For that, I present the Christ

You can say that its cliché
But I remember going through
In a mean way
Persecuted on every side
Couldn't escape
I gave him everything
That's when the leaves changed
Chorus
Slow...down...
This ain't the end of yo life
It'll work out when it is time
It's gonna be alright

Slow... down...
(Slow down now)
(Please)
(Don't you worry)
(Don't you worry)
(Skrrrrrrrrr)
Slow Down Now
