"Slow Down"

from iLLCANDESCENT by Versis

/

lyrics

At first I tried waiting to do the deed [damn]
At least I made it 'til 18, [then...]
I guess my libido kinda took over [and...]
It got a little crazy, started making moves
Guess you could say I'm something like that Clarence Carter guy
It wasn't feeling right, ain't like them other dudes
The types to dine-n-dash
Rather settle my food, I know it sounds silly
But that's just how I'm feeling
Coming from yours truly, able and surely willing
Keep it on the down low, vague and discreet
See, I'm not the type of kid to have my bus'[iness] in the street
No bragging, boasting ale toasting with my boys and all
Cause gossip grapes grow, and then from the vines they fall
[aww] here we go with the "he said, she said"
She started catching feelings, guess I was misread
Cause in my head, bold letters on a sign read:



Slow, slow down
You need to pump your brakes
Slow, slow down
Before you make a big mistake
Slow, slow down
Think you need to double-take
Slow, slow down
Hey hey, lady





This is me when I'm thinking with my other head
Hitting the sheets still, but this time it's full of lead
Instead of open legs, it's open minds
You show me yours, I'll show you mine
I'm talking mind sex, conversation climax
Most don't comprehend that you really gotta have that
Syntax, meaningful, fruitful, beautiful
A steady foundation with plenty of room to grow
It's hella relevant, in the development
Of a relationship, gotta consider it
Cause otherwise your love is lust in disguise
Getting stuck with hard luck, wondering: why?
And though I'm preaching my second hand teachings...
Seeing ladies pacing by that I wouldn't mind beseeching
It's some ladies pacing by that I wouldn't mind beseeching
It's some ladies pacing by that I wouldn't mind beseeching
Like - [h]'ey



Slow, slow down
You need to pump your brakes
Slow, slow down
You made me do a double-take
Slow, slow down
And then you made me wanna say
Slow, slow down
Hey hey, lady
