Slow Down
Krizz Kaliko Lyrics

My serenade means nothing at all your playing the strings of my heart x2
My attempts to woo you are useless as you manipulate my emotions

Everyone that you don′t hit put you on behind
You only pursue those who play hard to get

Cuz the girl thats standing in line
There is always someone else waiting for their turn with you

Every notch on your belt
Every person you have slept with

Just another notch I guess
I am just another person for you to add to your list of conquests

A fifi back wearing a dress
A promiscuous person dressed in a revealing manner

No significant other
You do not have a serious romantic partner

People discover that you is insignificant
People realize that you are not important in their lives

Sorta la viva loca and your living it
You are living life recklessly and irresponsibly

Beauty is a curse you the spell caster
Your good looks are a disadvantage to you as you use them to manipulate and charm others

Fornication is a sin give em hell faster
Engaging in sex outside of marriage is wrong and you will face consequences for it

He try spit everyone he see
You flirt with everyone you encounter

Everyone in front of me is a victim
People who come into contact with you and fall under your charms are being taken advantage of

Like her daddy he sho nuff can pick em
You have a talent for attracting and manipulating people

Stick em send em to the Grey Hound
You use people and discard them when you are done with them

Make lay down roll down
You cause people to submit to your charms and desires

Where are you going to
Take a moment to consider your direction in life

This worlds in front of you
You have many opportunities in life but you should take the time to choose the right ones

Please slow down
Take your time and make wise choices in life

Cute as a little button
The person you are pursuing is attractive

The apple of your eye
You are infatuated with this person

This little girl thats interrupted was corrupt by lies
The person you are pursuing has been hurt in the past and is guarded when it comes to relationships

How can she not cry
It is difficult for her to trust and open up to someone new

How can she face her fears
Overcoming past hurt and fears is a challenge for her

How can she overcome her hurt and pain thats still here
She is still dealing with the emotional aftermath of past relationships

With faith she climbs this high mountain where she belong
She is working on herself and striving for personal growth

Her hands is bruised with cuts for climbing this mountain for so long
The process of healing is not easy and has been difficult for her

Her visions not strong
She is struggling to see a brighter future for herself

Her love is so weak
She is hesitant to love again and is guarding her heart

She tries to love again but is her love gone to sleep
She is attempting to love again but is cautious and unsure

Whisper sweet nothings in her ear
You try to win her over with kind words and flattery

She loves the attention but is that what she wants to hear
She enjoys the affection but is uncertain if it is genuine

Give him permission to take advantage of what is dear
She may be allowing someone to take advantage of her feelings

More precious than silver or anything theres no compare
Her heart and well-being are extremely valuable

The consequences is more than what she can bear
The potential negative outcomes of a relationship could cause her significant pain

No one to blame in her shame of what she gain
She takes responsibility for her choices and their outcomes

When love is not given to you how do you love
It is difficult to give love when you have not received it in return

Express affection with kisses and hugs
Showing physical affection can be a way to express love

Now that I found (war)
I have found something worth fighting for

I can give all the others the highs man
I can let go of my past and focus on what is truly important

No longer young and dumb Imma wise man
I have learned from my mistakes and grown as a person

Used to be too promiscuous with more than two I was your bit with this
I used to sleep around and engage in casual relationships

See my wedding band and know where Im standing with this
My commitment to my marriage is clear and I am not interested in casual flings

Cuz theres alot of fruit in lifes basket
There are many opportunities for relationships and experiences in life

If you out there like that put a cast on it
If you are engaging in casual relationships, protect yourself emotionally

Fork it in the casket
Prioritize meaningful relationships over casual flings

Live entertainment baby
Live your life to the fullest and have fun

Make em wanna lay with ya stay with ya
Be charismatic and attract people who want to stick around

Put an autograph on they picture
Make an impression on people that is memorable and meaningful

Take it home with her sleep with it
Leave a lasting impression on someone that affects them even after you are gone

Keep it in a spot where it can be found
Remind people of your impact and memory on their lives

Keep it slow when you see the clock moving fast
Take a step back and slow down when life gets overwhelming

And hope you watching what your doing
Be mindful of your actions and choices to avoid negative consequences

He almost died in ninty nina
He had a close call with death in 1999

When he poppeds E's
When he used ecstasy (drug)

With vitamin C and Aquafina
He consumed these with the drugs to try to avoid negative effects

Such a dark seed
He has struggled with addiction and darkness in his life

You think he was a fiend if ever really seen him
He has been judged and misunderstood for his struggles with addiction

But then he had to stop speed
He had to stop using drugs

Maybe now his grass would get a bit greener
His life could improve now that he is sober

But 3 years later he ran into a what
Three years later he encountered a difficult situation

On top of having a major tour and creeping with a slut
He was busy with touring and being unfaithful to his partner

His wife ordered a separation thats weaken him to the gut
His wife separated from him, causing him emotional pain and turmoil

Now hes back with a vengeance
He is determined to succeed and overcome his struggles

Popping tweaking mentally stuck
He is using drugs again and feeling trapped

Pill after pill on the tour
He is using drugs to cope with touring and the difficulties in his personal life

Hes popping Ex like its medicine
He is using ecstasy as if it is a solution to his problems

This is the way homeboy can fly away like a pelican
He is escaping his problems, like a bird in flight

Without the family so far from heaven dove off in hell again
Without his family, he feels lost and is returning to using drugs

So ashamed of what he became
He is disappointed in himself for his actions and addiction

Cant even tell a friend
He is struggling and cannot confide in anyone

So he be lying steady fuckin with their mind
He is hiding his addiction from those around him and causing confusion

But on the inside hes dying internally crying
He is struggling emotionally and feeling immense pain

Desiring peace with his family but hes a beast
He wants to reconcile with his family but his addiction is getting in the way

You wanna be dad you rehab
He needs to go to rehab if he wants to be a good father and partner

Put him on a leash
He needs to be controlled and held accountable for his actions

And hes hoping that his partner wont part from him
He fears losing his partner and wants to salvage their relationship

His art forming
His music is his creative outlet

Part the dark when in drops stop him from stardom
His addiction is hindering his potential success and fame

With drugs its the second go round
He has relapsed with drug use

Blow now his heart will have no sound if he doesnt...
He risks losing everything, including his life, if he does not seek help and stop using drugs
