Slow Down Lyrics

So far from where I started out And 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 momma say
Slow down, baby you're going too fast You got you hands in the air with you feet on the gas You're 'bout to wreck your future running from your past You need to slow down baby
Thinking the faster that I go The faster that 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'm made out of diamond I tripped and fell and it reminded me To move over and let my angels guide me
Slow down, baby you're going too fast You got you hands in the air with you feet on the gas You're 'bout to wreck your future running from your past You need to slow down baby
Sometimes you gotta (Be still) Before you can get ahead (Be still) Ask the universe for help (Be real) [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/slow-down-lyrics-india-arie.html ] You can't do it all by yourself, no no (No)
Sometimes, sometimes you gotta (Be still) It take some time to reach you and they oh love (Be still) Take some time to clear your space (Be real) Chaos isn't good for your health, no no
Baby you in the end, oh yeah
'Cause I'm breaking things and I'm losing things I lost my cell phone again the other day That, I don't wanna live this way, no In the back of my mind I hear my mama say
Slow down, baby you're going too fast You got you hands in the air with you feet on the gas You're 'bout to wreck your future running from your past You need to slow down baby
Slow down baby you're going too fast (Slow down baby) (Slow down baby) Feet on the gas (Slow down baby) Run from your past
Slow down baby Slow down baby Slow down baby Slow down baby
