[Verse 1]
Born blind in the winter with an empty head
The snow covered up the Camry the whole house slept

Drawing pictures in the bed
Waking up and racing down the stairs trying to catch my breath
It's so simple, superman, trick or treat, wet socks

Bike rides in the summer to the best spots
Coulda sworn I was king of the best odds
Runnin' round with the dogs in the backyard

Growin' never knowin' what the past done
Livin' life like the mystery of packed lunch
Getting whooped in the playground scratched up

Comin' home after school on the last bus
Back then it was all about laughs
Hit the corner store for the new Fleer packs

Mom was a religion and happiness was a fact
It's a shame how the time goes past
Movin' so fast


[Hook]
It's like I'm movin' at lightspeed

Slow down
You need to slow down
Every once in a while sometimes

You'll see how the world goes round
You need to slow down every once in a while
Cuz you don't know, you don't know

You don't need to go so fast

[Verse 2]

Things changed in the pop shop got an offer
Packed up, moved out down to Colorado
Sunshine clean air not a lot of problems

And that's when I discovered pogs and tamagachi
Time past and the friends found punk yeah
Oh whatever man a lot of it was junk

But we loved it made us feel cool little dumb kids
Runnin' round just for fun doin' dumb %#@!
I was lightin' all my candles on both ends

Warren lake getting drunk with the friends
I was tryin' to stay positive even though I pretended it
It helped cause at home I was lackin' a happy ending

For all, saw a lot of tall trees fall
In the name of an addiction my sister taught me to follow
I cracked, cleaned up and got the backpack

I swore that I would never go back
Movin' so fast


[Hook]
It's like I'm movin' at lightspeed
Slow down

You need to slow down
Every once in a while sometimes
You'll see how the world goes round

You need to slow down every once in a while
Cause you don't know, you don't know
You don't need to go so fast


[Verse 3]
Nineteen I decided I was done with it

Hit Seattle with a head full of drum rhythms
Falling in and out of love with these young women
Thinkin' they could make a change of the blood given

Nah I was too young to face it
Workin' two jobs still thinking I could make it
Local all star still singin' from his ba!@&(t

Finally got a shot and I've been workin' everyday since
Found love in a city where the angels fly
Put a record out with Josh One, made our climb

Came home after two years and playin' out rhymes
Just to find my little angel was no more mine
Parted ways with a friend, it was not easy

Made a leap to the future and got queasy
Started workin' on the things that had lost reason
Now I'm sittin' with a pad movin' so fast


[Hook]
It's like I'm movin' at lightspeed
Slow down
You need to slow down

Every once in a while sometimes
You'll see how the world goes round
You need to slow down every once in a while
Cause you don't know you don't know
You don't need to go so fast
