[Verse 1]
I remember you you were the one whos said you knew it all
Young kid many prospects until you blew it all
You studied hard to get your academics
You earned merits and many certified credits
Until you got involved with the neighborhood dropouts
The ones who'd stop out the one's who always brought the cops out
Troublemakers with no great future
Who'd show you about guns and wouldn't hesitate to shoot ya
In the back they showed how to make quick cash
Selling a stash of trash to them cats who's in your class
You learned fast thought you was going to the top
With your gold stitched socks and ya iced out socks for real
Your living good making cash off ya hood
But you a small town crook so I'm thinking you should
Turn around keep your feet on the ground
Check the sound that I bring and slow down
[Chorus]
Everyday you wanna race your life and live fast
You wanna learn to take your time and take every chance
So slow down
And take your time
[Verse 2]
So now your living in your own place
With cash to waste your mother say's you are a disgrace
To the rest of your family who's doing things the right way
Your making money nine to five I'm talking nightly
There was a murder just the other day and ever since
You've been a suspect cus the cops found all your fingerprints
All over the neck of the shirt the kid was wearing
He couldn't pay you cash for his drugs you took his earrings
Twenty four carat till he paid you cash
Some witnesses heard you say you'd kick his ass yo
And even though you didn't do it you a nervous wreck
But you told us that you knew it all now wait a sec
Kid your life's took a turn for the worst
Living a sugar coated dream when reality's first yo
Tell me how you gonna turn it around
You should of listened to my words when I told you slow down
I remember you you were the one whos said you knew it all
Young kid many prospects until you blew it all
You studied hard to get your academics
You earned merits and many certified credits
Until you got involved with the neighborhood dropouts
The ones who'd stop out the one's who always brought the cops out
Troublemakers with no great future
Who'd show you about guns and wouldn't hesitate to shoot ya
In the back they showed how to make quick cash
Selling a stash of trash to them cats who's in your class
You learned fast thought you was going to the top
With your gold stitched socks and ya iced out socks for real
Your living good making cash off ya hood
But you a small town crook so I'm thinking you should
Turn around keep your feet on the ground
Check the sound that I bring and slow down
[Chorus]
Everyday you wanna race your life and live fast
You wanna learn to take your time and take every chance
So slow down
And take your time
