Slow
No time for stop drop and roll
We already live our lives balancing one foot on a ten foot pole
Hopeless cases only know click-clack blow
Children trying to shine never get a chance to glow
Girls wanting to fit in only hear them holler ho
Already as a kid only a couple things she doesn't know
Boys' only concern is to perfect that give and go
Praying he and his friends stop dreaming and wake up to go pro
In a fast talking world he must begin to slow
Or he won't be trusted as far as his little brother can throw
