Slow It Down
Smoov-E Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stop, slow it down and give You worship
Drop, what I'm doing just to worship
Not, gettin' through it 'til I worship and
Praise, eyes on You, off my situation
Stop, slow it down and give You worship
Drop, what I'm doing just to worship
Not, gettin' through it 'til I worship and
Praise, eyes on You, off my situation
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, off the situation
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, off of what I'm facing
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, off the situation
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, slow it down and worship
God be the flashing yellow light in my daily life when things are moving to fast and
I look past Ya, even though You rescued me so help me raise the bar, Jon Taffer
What a catastrophe when I get to busy to see what I should put out to pasture
All of the distractions we don't ignore, the Skeletors, trying to take the place of the Master
Even Christ had to steal away like Ricky Henderson
When He went into the hills to pray just to refill the tank
Be still or faint, hands to the ceiling raised, even if feeling drained, praise got to facilitate
Our God's worthy of parades, ticker tape
Instead of us running around, chickens decapitated
Getting run down, temples dilapidated
When we're not trimming and eliminating the deadweight and
Giving Him passionate praise
Who can add to their days if they're worrying and lacking in faith
Yet scurrying to add to the plate when it's already full so like a buffet
Half will go to waste
When all that it takes is a moment to make space
Like God when he hung the planets and comets with gravity
Give him the real estate that he needs to move in our life
And give strength before we get to the brink stop
Stop, slow it down and give You worship
Drop, what I'm doing just to worship
Not, gettin' through it 'til I worship and
Praise, eyes on You, off my situation
Stop, slow it down and give You worship
Drop, what I'm doing just to worship
Not, gettin' through it 'til I worship and
Praise, eyes on You, off my situation
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, off the situation
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, off of what I'm facing
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, off the situation
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, slow it down and worship
Every single day I wake up it's another challenge
Walking on this tight rope trying to keep my balance
Lord, help me with my time, 'cause I'm
Losing focus but I'm walking 'round like I'm fine
Blind to the fact that I need help
Gettin' caught up in a lot of drama trying to please self, myself
Got a hundred occupations 'cause I need wealth
Drowning in my daily duties, leave Bible on the shelf
Don't read, don't pray, don't study like I should
Schedule getting to busy to do it, but I think I'm good
Now I'm getting comfortable, knowing that I need to
Funny chasing money, overlook how it deceives you
Hustling is in my veins, look at how it bleeds through
My skin, my sin, never please You
Acting as if I don't need You
Fast living will intrigue you to believe you can hit cruise and breeze through
Wait, not true
Decisions that you make can either help you get ahead in this life, hinder or stop you
Then I realize He is not through with me, just wanna be with me in everything that I do
I choose this day to speak life, now I'm living to please the One and only
G-O-D we only recognize our Father in heaven Who never leave us lonely
Stop, slow it down and give You worship
Drop, what I'm doing just to worship
Not, gettin' through it 'til I worship and
Praise, eyes on You, off my situation
Stop, slow it down and give You worship
Drop, what I'm doing just to worship
Not, gettin' through it 'til I worship and
Praise, eyes on You, off my situation
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, off the situation
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, off of what I'm facing




Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, off the situation
Eyes on You, eyes on You, eyes on You, slow it down and worship
