Slow It Down Lyrics - Little Brother

This some grown man shit right here 

Listen 

I'm trying to man up see what's really good with you 

Gentleman's approach, not bring it hood to you 

Same things that you hear everyday like 

"Hey ma, hey boo, baby what's your name" 

Please pull up a seat, I'm so glad you came 

My mother call me Thomas you can do the same 

Damn its so refreshing when you calling out my name 

Been Pooh for so long it doesn't sound the same 

My occupation rap and I make a little change 

I see you not impressed with what this life brings 

Finished school, got a job, girl do your thing 

It's a lot of independent women wanna be claimed 

Marry into money or marry into fame, or at least give birth to a check 

With all due respect lets two-step in the name of like 

Who says we gotta do the waltz all day and all night, it's like

[Chorus] 

If love is not enough 

We don't have to rush 

Come around, I'll slow it down just you 

Lady you should be 

Right here next to me 

Come around, I'll slow it down just for you 

We can go to the movies 

I'll take you to the park and promise to have you home before the lights go out 

Steady asking you questions what your life about 

Oh and me, mine's everything I scribe about 

No doubt this my life and 

Dedicated to this witting sacrificing everything for it 

Wasted time I can't afford 

So if it ain't you/then you know I'm cooped up to the record.. 

Photos 

I'll scoop you up in me Porshe, sike 

You know I got a Nissan 

That I'm still paying for, still got a lease on 

But it don't matter 'cause that ain't my aim to get you 

I got fame, but you know that just ain't the issue 

Because you're looking like a woman of virtue 

So well-rounded, no wonder your're in my circle 

And normally you probably wouldn't give me the time of day 

'Cause Tay got rhymes, but no he ain't got time to waste 

[Chorus] 

Sometimes I think I'm from another world (preach) 

When I'm trynna tell a woman just exactly where I stand that (aight) 

I want a girl, when I want a girl 

And when I don't want a girl, I want a girl who understands that 

And that's some hard shit to explain 

To a woman that's in love with you, it's a pitiful thing 

Until I had to figure 

That I don't wanna play around, but I don't wanna settle down 

And that's a man's dilemma, 'cause every man remembers 

How his daddy and his uncles did it 

'Cause more than likely that's the way they're gonna do it 

I know it sound fucked up and most won't admit it 

But yo, I gotta face it 'cause I know I'm living through it 

'Cause when the party stops and niggas get old 

And the chain and the cars and the houses get sold, and that 

Other side of the bed gets cold, you don't wanna be alone 

So girl I'm trynna hold you 

[Chorus] 

Oh baby (Take it slow, take it slow, take it slow, take it slow) 

What you need to do is 

Take it slow with me 

Slow it down a little bit (Take it slow, take it slow, take it slow, take it slow) 

We don't have to rush into anything serious 

(Take it slow, take it slow, take it slow, take it slow) 

No we don't, take it from me (Take it slow, take it slow, take it slow, take it slow) 

My name is Percy and I make miracles if you take it slow with me baby 

(Take it slow, take it slow, take it slow, take it slow)
