[Chorus]

Slow it down, if I could go back I would slow it down

If I could turn back I would slow it down

If I could go back I would do it again

Do it again, do-do-do it again, oh-ah


[Verse 1]

Ain't got no time for no bullshit, gotta make moves quick

If you snooze then you lose it, lay it down like my Chevrolet

After a day of play after I juice it, get stupid

Hit the corner crooked, don't remember how I took it

Don't remember how I made it, I remember being faded

Remember when I had more than anticipated

Got intoxicated, I almost got incarcirated

Put my petal to the metal, hear me screechin' down the pavement

I'm esé Lil Rob and I'm back up on the block

In a rag top with the back drop not knowin' when to stop

So, I'ma keep on rollin' till the wheels are fallin' off

And it might get a little crazy but nobody call the cops

We got it under control, we're on a gangsta stroll

Watchin' out for the pigs on patrol

'Cause my homeboy's on parole, my little homeboy's on probation

Still gots a chance to change his life, but right now it's incarciration that he's facin'


[Chorus]

Slow it down, if I could go back I would slow it down

If I could turn back I would slow it down

If I could go back I would do it again

Do it again, do-do-do it again, oh-ah


[Verse 2]

Seen homeboy Vato down the block, he told me Paco got shot

In the parking lot of the Taco Shop, the town's been hot

Been full of cops, been full of placas

I told them I don't really understand it homie, bumpin' "This is for La Raza"

Hit the switch like this and chirp it into the street

Where I keep my cuete under my seat, where I keep on the creep

Where we go to the grave with the secrets we keep

And I'mma always keep my word so that I'm able to sleep

I'm bumpin' the beat when I heard her body talkin' to me

I like what it's sayin' and I love what I see, tou're comin' with me

Her body's cold and comfortable to hold

So magicly now she's sittin' in my passenger seat, we got it under control

We roll it low, but so slow

I hit the leño and live my life in slow mo

If I could do this one mo', time again

Just tell me when, so, we can do it again


[Chorus]

Slow it down, if I could go back I would slow it down

If I could turn back I would slow it down

If I could go back I would do it again

Do it again, do-do-do it again, oh-ah


[Verse 3]

Seen one of my homeboys he's doin' good, he started life over

Another homeboy not so good, he slipped, now life's over

One's was supposed to be gettin' married in February

Now, he's in the coffin being carried at the cemetery

Getting burried, take a hit of the joint and keep it cherry

'Cause this shit is gettin' heavy like a Chevy on five twenty's

And that's pretty heavy, tryna make that pretty penny

Where there's plenty and I'll be damned if I ain't makin' any

Comin' out stronger than many, many bolder than most

We get sick with it, sicker than my flows; fuckin' gross

A product's of where I was brought up, it's the bomb like a Fleetline

Tag my name on a street sign, throwin' up the peace sign

Lookin' for a feline, that's bad enough to be mine

Fuck yeah homeboy; she fine

So, we gon' keep on rollin'

Even if I don't know where I'm goin'


[Chorus]

Slow it down, if I could go back I would slow it down

If I could turn back I would slow it down

If I could go back I would do it again

Do it again, do-do-do it again, oh-ah
