Oh people, oh
Oh people, oh
Your heart's a shady thang
Yes, it is
Deceitful
Gotta keep hold of every string

Now, I know they say
Follow your heart
Hearts, they can break
They're not strong enough, no, no
They lie all the time
Know what seems best
There's so much you still don't know
So I strongly suggest that you

Slow down
Anxious for nothing
Listen to me when I tell you
Slow down
Cause you're going way too fast

Hurry up
I said hurry up
Things are getting shorter
All the while
I've been running wild
Completely out of order

Oh stress, stress
Be my middle name
I'm the one to blame
Accept myself
Yes, yes
You can take my cares
Jesus is me, oh Lord
Standing in the need of prayer

I'll need to slow down
Anxious for nothing
Listen to me when I tell you
Slow down
Cause you're going way too fast

Why do we even worry about yesterday
Knowing Christ could come tomorrow?
So take a second
Take a minute
Take an hour
Take how ever long you need to slow down
