Slow down kid, you’re living to angry, you’re living to mean The world won’t make sense at fifteen You’ll roll your sleeves and hide your heart But you’ve come a long way from the start It’s funny what can change when you’re twenty four Staring into the eyes of a stranger wanting more She’ll keep you close, but it’ll be hard to tell If it was your or her that fell At twenty seven, you’ll start to dream You’ll start questioning what everything means You might even get a tattoo But you’ll let your heart guide you true When you reach the end, you’ll crack a smile You’ll look into her eyes and realize it’s all worthwhile The journey and the memories that were made Knowing that none of it will ever fade So slow down kid, it's not your time Just work on the reason, find your rhyme Stay true and walk the line For one day too, you will shine

Slow Down Kid
Slow down kid, you’re living to angry, you’re living to mean The world won’t make sense at fifteen You’ll roll your sleeves and hide your heart But you’ve come a long way from the start It’s funny what can change when you’re twenty four Staring into the eyes of a stranger wanting more She’ll keep you close, but it’ll be hard to tell If it was your or her that fell At twenty seven, you’ll start to dream You’ll start questioning what everything means You might even get a tattoo But you’ll let your heart guide you true When you reach the end, you’ll crack a smile You’ll look into her eyes and realize it’s all worthwhile The journey and the memories that were made Knowing that none of it will ever fade So slow down kid, it's not your time Just work on the reason, find your rhyme Stay true and walk the line For one day too, you will shine
