von Lupe Fiasco

[Lupe]
Yeeeah
Pooh bear, lupe, eva
Happy birthday
You know, ha
F.n.f.u.p
Ya'sayin, slow down

[EVA]
{verse 1}
Gotta be careful
Cos nobody's gona care for you
Like you do (like you)
And nobody's gona have your back
Like you do (you do)
Just be sure before you go and make (and make)
A move (a move)
You've got the world to lose

{bridge}
You need to stop and listen
Cos every word i say is true
Try to pay attention
Cos im just tryna watch out for you
I know you're on a mission
I see how you're livin
Chu don't wana end'up missin
I think you oughta listen to me

{chorus}
I'd slow down (all the way down, down, down)
Before you hurt yourself
I'd slow down (all the way down, down, down)
It's just not worth it
I'm savin tens (i'm savin tens)
For a rainy day (for a rainy day)
Just slow down (slow it all the way down)
I'd slow down (just slow it all the way down)

{verse 2}
You're so innocent
They're gona try to run a game (a game)
On you (on you)
Just be aware of all the lies
That they use (they use)
I can't help it
Cos i've been
In your shoes (your shoes)
I'm givin you the rules (the rules)

{bridge}
You need to stop and listen
Cos every word i say is true
Try to pay attention
I'm just tryna watch out for you
I know you're on a mission
I see how you're living
But chu don't wana end'up missin
I think you oughta listen to me

{chorus}
I'd slow down
Slow down (all the way down, down, down)
Before you hurt yourself
I'd slow down (all the way down, down, down)
It's just not worth it
I'm savin tens (i'm savin tens)
For a rainy day (for a rainy day)
Just slow down (slow it all the way down)
I'd slow down (just slow it all the way down)

[LUPE]
You movin too fast
You movin too quick
You heavy on the gas
You movin too swift
Can't keep up the pace
Might not finish the race
But do it now for it's too late to switch
And how you make a impala lift
But the set card is ya heart
And is hard to be fixed
You gon break it if you don't downshift
And i know you get a rush when you hang around risk
But you gon get enough when you breakin down sick
All ill cant move your wheels and feelin like shhh
Just a mile back you was feelin quite brisk
Now you sittin on bricks, wit ya car on strict
Radio gone
Insurance won't cover
Paint job wreck
And you draggin your muffler
Would'nt listen then, but i bet you hear now
Cos you gotta speed ticket
Cos you would'nt slow down, yeeeah

[EVA]
{chorus}
I'd slow down (all the way down, down, down)
Before you hurt yourself
I'd slow down (all the way down, down, down)
It's just not worth it
I'm savin tens (i'm savin tens)
For a rainy day (for a rainy day)
Just slow down (slow it all the way down)
I'd slow down (just slow it all the way down)
