Slow It Down

This some grown man

Shit right here

Listen

(big pooh):

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 it's 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

Let's two-step

In the name of like

Who says

We gotta do

The waltz all day

And all night

It's like

(hook):

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

(big pooh):

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

(phonte):

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

You'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

(hook)

(phonte):

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 wont admit it

But yo, i gotta face it

'cause i know

I'm living through it

'cause when the party stops

And niggaz 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

(hook)

Ohhh, 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)
