about

Slow Dance is co produced by my homie Alynoos, I went to his crib when we were in Paris and heard this on his monitors and knew we had a banger. This one was written with the sole purpose of letting people know they can keep negative people out of their circle. These days there are too many weighted discussions, trauma dumping, and just complaining that can bring your day down.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
You gon hear me
The same way
you try to steer me
I know your intentions
I can see em clearly
Got the nerve to wonder why I act so
Leery
It’s too many homies who departed dearly
I keep no negative energy near me
The baggage that you carry make a nigga weary
I’m already overwhelmed when the sky is dreary
The way you coming at me feeling eerie
And I’m not gonna argue with you
I don’t want to fuss no mo
I told myself a while ago
I don’t wanna cuss no mo
Don’t want people around me
Ain’t nobody I can trust no more
I want some therapy but they be scamming like them hustlers so
It’s weed and alcohol
Until I numb it
It ain’t tough no more
Go through life smiling on the outside I look comfortable
Inside I don’t know what’s going on between my eyes
I give it all to god and put my faith up in the sky

[Hook] (x2)
Hear me
The wrong way
you try and to steer me
I know your intentions
I can see em clearly
Got the nerve to wonder why I act so
Leery
It’s too many homies who departed dearly

[Verse 2]
I can’t articulate this deep depression that’s irrelevant
If you stop for breathers please believe they stop them presidents
It could be worse like being jailed without no evidence
But mutha fuckas try me they insulting my intelligence
Please don’t patronize me
I done been through too much trauma.
I don’t conceal & carry because
Hit a nigga with the llama
On the wrong day
Just because I’m going through emotions that I can’t understand
Wish I can fix it with a potion
Life can be commotion
Or quiet as the ocean
Hit the J a couple times per hour
Daily micro dosing
I’m high and functional it’s crazy people got the notion
It’s all honky dory
But my story’s thought provoking
Other people’s problems
I ain’t down with opp and shit
Looking at my family only thing that’s keeping me legit
Borderline insanity I came up from the muscle
Naturally on my distance I’m gon stay up in my bubble

[Hook] (x2)
Hear me
The wrong way
you try and to steer me
I know your intentions
I can see em clearly
Got the nerve to wonder why I act so
Leery
It’s too many homies who departed dearly
