lyrics

Everybody want to fall in love, everybody wants that special someone.
Everybody needs somebody to be there to hold em down,
when things get rocky, it don't matter if you young or not.
Need somebody to be real with you. Ride or die, even if they gotta kill with you.
To love you at your worst, even when you’re wrong,
to have the wisdom to help and have the patience to deal with you.
And I don't count myself out at all, if I said I didn't want you,
I would be a darn fool, full of bull, cus we both know that it's not true.
I get this sudden rush when it's just us, and I know it ain't lust, we’re even into the same stuff.
Reading books, working out, getting turnt, on a mission to make Jesus famous.
We want to rush things, but what's the rush? I Know we don't lack trust, we just both hate waiting.
But if we want to be blessed by God than our relationship will require a bit of patience.
One day, you'll be my bride, my wife. On that day the sun will be shining bright.
You'll be mine for life, so let's slow down. If it's meant to be, God will bless us when the time is right.

I'm not saying it's over.
But it just feels so fast.
I seen so many heartbreaks,
I'm not searching for that.
Everyone's in a hurry, to meet and fall in love.
And once they do, they see it's not what they thought it was.
I know we've had our share of pain,
Mistakes and hearts aching,
all I'm asking for is patience.
Can we slow it down?
Slow it down
Let's slow it down.

I see our younger generation, being fed this lust, it's like
they're supposed to believe the romance novels, movies and music,
like it's always love at first sight?
But that's rarely ever the case, real love needs time put in.
It needs work, needs faith, needs patience, and most importantly it needs God up in it.
So you could speed it up but no it won't last.
You’re sure to lose the wheel when you’re moving too fast.
That's why you give it to God, he'll make sure you don't crash,
So the future plans you have don't become a thing of the past.
Went from a few walks and a few laughs, to a few hugs and a few hands.
With a small kiss and a light touch, movie night, with cuddles and arms crossed,
to sleeping over, hands on each other, and lights cut off.
Slow it down.

I apologize I know you’re a bit confused.
But just let me explain.

I'm not saying it's over.
But it just feels so fast.
I seen so many heartbreaks,
I'm not searching for that.
Everyone's in a hurry, to meet and fall in love.
And once they do, they see it's not what they thought it was.
I know we've had our share of pain,
Mistakes and hearts aching,
all I'm asking for is patience.
Can we slow it down?
Slow it down
Let's slow it down.
