Slow Down Lyrics by Estelle

Lovers Rock

2018

[Intro: Alicai Harley]
Do what you want
Do what you want
Do what you wanna do
Do what you want
Do what you want

[Verse 1: Estelle]
Slow down, I know you tired of the show now
You worry if your boobs' big enough, but your hair ain't enough, slow down
Don't listen, they just tellin' lies
Judgin' you and tryna kill your vibe
Baby you should do what you want and you don't gotta frown
You can shut it down, shut-shut it down
Listen, just hold your head high, no need to frown, you will see
You shouldn't try to make flowers out of dead leaves

[Pre-Chorus: Estelle]
Woah, woah, don't listen, they just tryna get to ya
Couple likes don't make you no cooler, no cooler
Listen, woah, woah, don't ever let them see you sweat
Don't rush, take your time, don't stress, don't stress

[Chorus: Estelle]
Shine like sun rays
Go 'head and shine like sun rays
Wanna shine like sun rays
'Cause you look good today
Yeah, your wave is your wave (your wave is your wave)

[Verse 2: Alicai Harley]
Do what you want
Do what you want
Do what you wanna do
You no need no name brand garms
[?]
[?]
[?]
[?] no one likes real life
I'm the one not to see you twice that you know it is, no lies
Yes they ain't gon' chat 'bout you, 'cause you're shining, you're shining
They ain't gon' talk 'bout you
Yes, they ain't gon' chat 'bout you
Girl, if you was warrin', they wouldn't care 'bout you

[Pre-Chorus: Estelle]
Woah, woah, don't listen, they just tryna get to ya
Couple likes don't make you no cooler, no cooler
Listen, woah, woah, don't ever let them see you sweat
Don't rush, take your time, don't stress, don't stress

[Chorus: Estelle]
Shine like sun rays
Go 'head and shine like sun rays
Wanna shine like sun rays
'Cause you look good today
Yeah, your wave is your wave (your wave is your wave)

[Bridge: Estelle]
And that's fine if you want your own vibe
If you want a new vibe, you can make your own vibe (yes)
Slow down, you ain't got a long way to go now
You see the road's hard enough
But it ain't hard enough for you to slow it down, slow it down
Listen, just hold your head high, no need to frown, you will see
You shouldn't try to make flowers out of dead leaves

[Pre-Chorus: Estelle]
Woah, woah, don't listen, they just tryna get to ya
Couple likes don't make you no cooler, no cooler
Listen, woah, woah, don't ever let them see you sweat
Don't rush, take your time, don't stress, don't stress

[Chorus: Estelle]
Shine like sun rays (go 'head and shine like sun rays)
Go 'head and shine like sun rays (I said just shine like sun rays)
Wanna shine like sun rays
'Cause you look good today
Yeah, your wave is your wave (I said your wave is your wave)

[Chorus: Estelle]
Shine like sun rays
Go 'head and shine like sun rays
Go 'head and shine like sun rays
'Cause you look good today
Yeah, your wave is your wave
Your wave is your wave
Your wave is your wave
