Verse 1
He’s got a heart that never clocks out,
Hands always full, but he won’t say it loud.
Says yes before the question’s through,
Carries more than one man should do.
Every open door feels like a call,
Every need sounds personal.
He keeps moving ‘cause someone’s in need,
Even when his soul can’t keep that speed.
Pre-Chorus
Good intentions don’t make you strong,
When the road you’re on is way too long.
Chorus
Slow it down, just a little while,
The world won’t fall if you rest awhile.
You don’t have to carry it all alone,
Even iron bends when it’s overgrown.
Take a breath, let tomorrow wait,
Life’s not something we outrun with faith.
Slow it down… before it burns you out.
Verse 2
He never wears it like a holy crown,
Never calls it sacrifice out loud.
Doesn’t hide behind a higher cause,
Still gives everything he’s got.
Morning comes before the night feels done,
Dreams cut short when the day’s begun.
Love keeps asking for time and hands,
But there’s only so much one man can stand.
Pre-Chorus
Even fire meant to give off light,
Needs the dark to survive the night.
Chorus
Slow it down, just a little while,
The world won’t fall if you rest awhile.
You don’t have to carry it all alone,
Even iron bends when it’s overgrown.
Take a breath, let tomorrow wait,
Life’s not something we outrun with faith.
Slow it down… before it burns you out.
Bridge
Rest isn’t weakness, it’s staying whole,
It’s how you keep from losing your soul.
Even love knows when to pause,
Or it turns into another cost.
Chorus
Slow it down, hear your heartbeat now,
You don’t lose ground by laying it down.
You’re allowed to stop, you’re allowed to breathe,
You don’t owe the world every piece of me.
Hold this moment, let it stay—
You’re still faithful if you walk away.
Slow it down
Slow down
Slow down
