matt stedman - son, slow down lyrics

#verse
can i just have a moment because i’ve got a lot to ask
i’ve been searching for a purpose and i couldn’t find my path
the way you’ve led your life has kept an awe inside of me
tell me what’s the secret to a life led happily
see, granddad there are many things i know i need and want
an arrow in direction of wealth, safety, and true love
help me get there quickly so i can enjoy the high
he took me by the hand, looked mе in the eyes, and said

#chorus
son slow down
a lifе is wasted when it’s spent rushing around
all the good you want will come eventually you’ll see
the wealth you want exists internally

#verse
a couple years had passed now and my head is still confused
have i really found a purpose or just found things to do
but i’m still exploring inwards, and there’s still a lot to learn
i’m still a boy in character but i’m aging with concern
he shaped me to the person that i’m proud to call myself
the little things are precious, good fortune and good health
so now’s the time to call him and to ask for his advice
learn this lesson wisely from a wise man living life
#chorus
he said son slow down
you’ve got mistakes to make and sadness yet unfound
hurry and you’ll stumble more, so sit back and relax
once the time flies out the door you’ll never get it back

#verse
there’s always many things to do and always words to say
with the grandfather clock in the living room tick+tocking life away
he knows that he can’t change it and he knows that he can’t stay
don’t take days for granted, take the day

#chorus
so son slow down
you know i wouldn’t change a single thing next time around
i know you won’t believe it but i mean it when i say
all of us will run out of tomorrows someday

#chorus
he’d say “son slow down
you know he wouldn’t you anchored to the ground
take it by the moment not the year that’s how i’ve found”
that’s what he thought life was all about
