"Slow Down" lyrics

"Slow Down"

In my hometown you should be settled down no later than 23
But around here it's your career and running after 30 under 30
Caught in between two speeds of what's expected of me
Too late or too early, ahead or behind
Or maybe I'm right on time

I gotta hurry up and slow down
Trust that it'll all work itself out
Tryin' to dig a little deeper
Lookin' in the mirror
Like, what am I missin'?
Nothing, no, I finally figured it out
I gotta hurry up and slow down

When can I stop again? I'm not where I oughta be
I bet God laughs when I act like I control things
I'm takin' my hands off every detail and lettin' it go
'Cause it's all aligned in perfect timing
Be still and know

I gotta hurry up and slow down
Trust that it'll all work itself out
Tryin' to dig a little deeper
Lookin' in the mirror
Like, what am I missin'?
Nothing, no, I finally figured it out
I gotta hurry up and slow down

I'm caught in between two speeds of what's expected of me
Too late or too early, ahead or behind
Or maybe I'm right on time

I gotta hurry up and slow down
Trust that it'll all work itself out
Tryin' to dig a little deeper
Lookin' in the mirror
Like, what am I missin'?
Nothing, no, I finally figured it out
I gotta hurry up and slow down

Ooh, I gotta slow down
