Rest (with Samm Henshaw)

Lyrics

It was something I believed in
 Ain't no rest until the bank account peakin'
 You say, "The city never sleeps in"
 But living busy isn't giving you your worth
 Slowing down is fighting back
 The time you take is given back
 Shifting gears is saving gas
 Hiding in the quiet is a world of wisdom
 (Slow it down and see it)
 Rest is the secret
 I start to believe it
 The city's built on blood and muscle (Yeah, yeah)
 Skyscrapers held on by philosophy of hustling
 Saturday is my cathedral
 A day to stop, and rest is holding up the steeple
 This might be news for all the people
 Living busy isn't giving you your worth
 (Whoo!)
 Slowing down is fighting back
 Hiding in the quiet is a world of wisdom
 Calming all the noise so you can finally listen
 Rest is the secret
 I start to believe it
 (Start to believe it
 Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohh)
 Stopping the motion to process the moment
 (Why don't we stop just to process?)
 Can I take a minute? Maybe a breath to breathe?
 Can I take a second? I'm craving clarity
 So lost in the thought of what one day I could be, that
 I forget to take some time to make a richer me
 I searched around to find myself a mental cure
 I took a break, that's probably what I'm lookin' for
 What once was lost has finally got me reassured
 (Ooooh)
 Leaving room for greater paths
 Letting go and kicking back
 Reading books and taking baths
 Slowing down is
 Rest is the secret
 I start to believe it
 (Start to- start to believe it
 Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohh)
 Stopping the motion (Stopping the motion)
 To process the moment
 (Why don't we stop just to- whoo!)
