Burn Slow
The Dirty Heads feat. Tech N9ne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jeffery shit when I touch these walls
Crawl in a cave when the day-time calls
Hibernate, animals
Next night out when I'm feeling great
Met this chick in an altered state
Heels as big empire state
She's a model, fuck that's great
Said what's up
I said fucking, nothing much
Ask me what I'm wearing
I said shhh, designer drugs
Lucy and the diamonds
Turn out, the lights are blinding
I'll spit this last line
And you can call me Scott Weiland
Burn slow
I can see you through the flames of your lighter
I can see you with the lights down low
I can feel it when I'm standing beside you
Got the feeling that you want to burn slow
I can see that you're always on the move
And I can see that your always on go
I can feel that your minds always running
Got the feeling that you wanna burn
Wanna burn slow
Hold it in, ghost toke
When our lips touch we both smoke
If the feeling is right we both know
If the hit's too big we both choke
Man I love this feeling
Got my head above the ceiling
Burn it slow 'cause we just chilling
Got nowhere to go but here
And I just love the way that you vibe
I'm on your level and I
I care not what they say and I'mma do whatever feels right
So I lose it, no control
Light me up and just watch me go
Don't confuse it, I get stupid
I get stoned, yeah I go ruthless
Burn it slow
I can see you through the flames of your lighter
I can see you with the lights down low
I can feel it when I'm standing beside you
Got the feeling that you want to burn slow
I can see that you're always on the move
And I can see that your always on go
I can feel that your minds always running
Got the feeling that you wanna burn
Wanna burn slow
I take my time cause I know that you wanna burn slow
I take my time cause I know that you wanna burn slow
Sit at home when I'm killing the pages
I do it cause I love it, got incredible wages
I wanna kick it like a horny devil in Vegas
I call up a couple ladies with the medical haze
Very super sick and ready to roll
Got the grinder out and shredded the dough
Now it's time to get kinetic, we headed
For vertical travel you like never before
Me and the woman we pumping in the garage
What I'm thinking, I'm thinking a Ménage
Loving the feeling, I got to end a massage
I gotta sit I'm thinking I'm having dinner with God
Super silver haze, taking me up
Super killer babes, shaking they butts
All the beauty steady making me puff
And the central making me lust
That's what I yearn for
Something so beautiful when we cipher, I'm not thinking about no germ so
My turn you all
What about some love and I'm concerned though
We learn though
Really make you make my worm grow
Adjourned
Then after we burn slow
I can see you through the flames of your lighter
I can see you with the lights down low
I can feel it when I'm standing beside you
Got the feeling that you want to burn slow
I can see that you're always on the move
And I can see that your always on go
I can feel that your minds always running
Got the feeling that you wanna burn
Wanna burn slow
I take my time cause I know that you wanna burn slow
I take my time cause I know that you wanna burn slow
Hold it in, ghost toke, ghost toke, ghost toke
I can see you through the flames of your lighter
Hold it in, ghost toke, ghost toke, ghost toke
The Dirty Heads’ song Burn Slow is about enjoying the moment, living life in the present, and taking things slowly. The song talks about the experience of meeting new people, experiencing altered states/highs, and the feelings associated with it. In the first verse, the singer talks about meeting a girl while he was feeling great on a high. The second verse is about taking it slow and enjoying the feeling, which goes with the chorus “got the feeling that you want to burn slow.”
In the bridge, the singer talks about how he loves the feeling of being with someone he vibes well with, enjoying the moment, and being carefree. The last few lines suggest that the experience has come to an end, and it’s time to move on, but the memory of the experience will always remain.
Overall, Burn Slow encourages people to savor the moment, to take life slowly, and to be present in the now. It tells us to love ourselves, to enjoy the company of the people around us, and to appreciate life in all its beauty.

Hibernate, animals
Like animals that hibernate, I want to disconnect and rest

Burn slow
Take things slow and enjoy the experience
I can see you through the flames of your lighter
I can see you clearly in the dim light of the lighter
I can see you with the lights down low
In low lighting, I can see you clearly
I can feel it when I'm standing beside you
Being near you gives me a certain feeling
Got the feeling that you want to burn slow
I sense that you want to take things slow and enjoy the moment
Hold it in, ghost toke
Inhale the smoke without letting it out
When our lips touch we both smoke
We share the smoke as we kiss
If the feeling is right we both know
We both know when the experience is enjoyable
If the hit's too big we both choke
If we take too large of a hit, it can be overwhelming
Man I love this feeling
I enjoy this sensation
Got my head above the ceiling
The drugs make me feel like I am soaring high
Burn it slow 'cause we just chilling
Take things slow and relax
Got nowhere to go but here
We are not in a rush to go anywhere else
And I just love the way that you vibe
I love your energy
I'm on your level and I
I feel like we are connected
I care not what they say and I'mma do whatever feels right
I don't care about other people's opinions and will do what makes me happy
So I lose it, no control
I let myself go and stop holding back
Light me up and just watch me go
The drugs make me feel energetic and unstoppable
Don't confuse it, I get stupid
I get careless and reckless while under the influence
I get stoned, yeah I go ruthless
The drugs make me feel aggressive and fearless
I can see that you're always on the move
I notice that you are always busy
And I can see that your always on go
You are constantly on the move
I can feel that your minds always running
You are always thinking and processing
Got the feeling that you wanna burn
I sense that you want to experience something intense
Wanna burn slow
But also want to take it slow and savor the experience
I take my time cause I know that you wanna burn slow
I am mindful of your desire to take things slow, so I do the same
Sit at home when I'm killing the pages
I enjoy writing at home
I do it cause I love it, got incredible wages
I write because I enjoy it and not necessarily for money
I wanna kick it like a horny devil in Vegas
I want to have fun and let loose like in Las Vegas
I call up a couple ladies with the medical haze
I invite some women over who also use drugs
Very super sick and ready to roll
The women are enthusiastic and eager to start
Got the grinder out and shredded the dough
We prepare the drugs
Now it's time to get kinetic, we headed
We are ready to party
For vertical travel you like never before
The drugs will take us on a wild ride
Me and the woman we pumping in the garage
We are dancing in the garage
What I'm thinking, I'm thinking a Ménage
I am considering a threesome
Loving the feeling, I got to end a massage
I am enjoying the physical sensations
I gotta sit I'm thinking I'm having dinner with God
I feel like I am having an out-of-body experience
Super silver haze, taking me up
This is the name of a strain of marijuana that is uplifting
Super killer babes, shaking they butts
The women are dancing and having fun
All the beauty steady making me puff
I am smoking more because of the beautiful women around me
And the central making me lust
The drugs are making me feel aroused
That's what I yearn for
This is what I desire
Something so beautiful when we cipher, I'm not thinking about no germ so
We are enjoying the moment and not worried about the risks
My turn you all
Now it's my turn to speak
What about some love and I'm concerned though
I am suggesting that we show love and care for each other
We learn though
We learn and grow from our experiences
Really make you make my worm grow
You excite and arouse me
Adjourned
The conversation is over
Then after we burn slow
We take things slow and enjoy the moment
Hold it in, ghost toke
Inhale the smoke without letting it out
I can see you through the flames of your lighter
I can see you clearly in the dim light of the lighter
Hold it in, ghost toke
Inhale the smoke without letting it out
