When I was a child
I was the brightest in my class
But my mind it moved too fast
But now I can't keep up
I'm an adult without a path
I've looked the wrong way and I've crashed
Now we're mixing business and pleasure
I've been feeling the pressure to pull it together
If I was never in control
I could just let it all unroll
We can take it step by step
Baby you and me
In slow motion
Whatever happens next
On to you I'll keep holding
Brain always busy at work, a situation to read
A mystery to unearth, a social media feed
My hands are down in the dirt, they're laying out all the seeds
Imagining all the trees haven't happened yet
Head wandering, pondering different options, I
Could be watering the thoughts that say I'm awesome, why
Do I water the thoughts that say I'm awful, I
Prolly water too much, what about happiness?
Whoa, hey. Life is so chaotic
But at least we're not robotic and I got you with me
Okay, can't predict the future but we'll pivot
And maneuver when the times ain't pretty
Whoa, hey. Mind is always moving a mile
But Ima slow it down for you and your smile like
Okay. Waves are gonna come when they do
So let's step and just groove for a while
If I was never in control
I could just let it all unroll
We can take it step by step
Baby you and me
In slow motion
Whatever happens next
On to you I'll keep holding
If I was never in control
I could just let it all unroll
We could take it step by step
