Slow Down
Forrest Frank's song 'slow down' is a reflective piece about stepping away from the fast pace of modern life to find rest and guidance from God. The lyrics contrast a clean, metallic feeling with a desire for natural warmth and divine direction. Frank expresses a wish to slow his heart and mind, walking at the pace of the breeze and resting like a bird. He also touches on the tension between accepting others and feeling personally rejected. The song emphasizes trusting God's timing and finding peace in His presence, echoing themes of surrender and rest.
I feel matallic, modern, and clean
But I wasn't made to be like listerine
I want the warmth of the sun on my back
And no one but god telling me how to act
I just wanna slow down my heart
Walk at the pace of the breeze
I just wanna slow down my mind
To rest like a bird in the trees yeah
I wanna show people that they're accepted
While at the same time I tell me im ejected (what?)
I want the cool of the day on my sleeve
And no one but God telling me when to leave
I just wanna slow down my heart
Walk at the pace of the breeze
I just wanna slow down my mind
Rest like a bird in the trees
