Slow Love Lyrics

Guess when you left it didn't mean a thing

You ain't fuck with the confidence that I bring

I guess you didn't want the ring

I would've treated you right (I would've treated you)

Wonder if it keeps you up at night

Like did you chose what's best for you

Or did you just push everyone good out of your life (Yeah)

I liked you

And that something I don't say too often

Was it because I thought about moving to Austin

And you wanted to live on the coast (You wanted to live on the coast)

Or was it because you were worried about staying afloat

I always wanted to follow my dreams but maybe you wanted a man that won't (Maybe You Wanted a man)

Maybe you wanted that 9-5

That half alive

That douchebag guy that cheats on his wife

Fuck that

Tell me

What is the meaning of life if you never live the life that you want (Live the life that you Want)

That doesn't sound like a life

It sounds like survive

I'm gonna thrive

I'm gonna make it and retire at 35

With a beautiful wife

And beautiful kids

And look back on the many years

And think damn she was the cause of all of these tears (Yeah)

I got over my fears

I lift up my glass to all of my family (Yeah)

And they all saying cheers

I thought you were the one

I guess I was wrong

But it's taken me this long

To know that I would rather be alone

Then to spend another minute with a woman who just wanted me (She wanted me)

Gone

Yeah

Everyday when I wake up

I wonder what I could've done

Or I should've done

But that's not no way to live

Get the fuck out of my mind (Get out of my mind)

Spending my time with the ones that give it back

I'm still intact

I'm getting used to taking off the mask

And remembering that it's okay to be sad

You can't always be happy (Yeah)

But it's about knowing what's working and what's not

Get all your shit in check and don't worry bout what doors are locked

Just focus on what you got

I know that it's hard but it's all in your thoughts

The quicker you change the path the better you feel

The better you have a chance to heal that wound that's been there for too long

Know that as I write this song I got about 20 (I got about 20)

But it's never too many

Cause the best currency it ain't pennies

It's finding the meaning of life

So pick yourself and take my advice

I'd rather live a life full of the best shit

Then to leave this earth with nothing but pain

Containing myself in a box full of hate

If you let it take over your body you'll never be great (Naw)

It's something that's hard to do but it worth it (Yeah)

Don't let your life go to waste

I thought you were the one

I guess I was wrong

But it's taken me this long

To know that I would rather be alone

Then to spend another minute with a woman who just wanted me (She wanted me)

Gone

She wanted me gone

And it's hard

The only time I feel like things are going right

Is when everything's wrong (Yeah)

This is the longest I've been alone since 15

It's good for me

I'm taking a break while I hit I hit the brakes

Cause I'm sick of having my heart ache (Sick of having my heart ache)

I've been asleep I'm now awake

I set the stakes

And I'm shaping myself into what I want (Yeah)

I'm shooting my shot

Planning my life with a lot of love in my heart

Patiently waiting for the woman of my dreams

I'm ready to love again my self esteem is high

No longer rely on others for happiness

And I can't wait till I'm finally at my happiest

It's coming up

I don't give a fuck if you hate (Yeah)

I've dealt with this shit my whole life

It's no longer a weight on my chest

The most important thing is to be at my best

Mentally it ain't hard to get stressed (Yeah)

So I'm gonna take all the time that I need

I'm probably gonna smoke a shit ton of weed

I'm planting a seed for the rest of my life and I'm watching it grow (Yeah)

This ain't where I thought I'd be just a year ago

But it's all apart of the journey and this year I'm taking it slow
