v1:
We all feel the crushing weight of time
hard upon our hearts
We do our best to walk the line,
but we move in fits & starts
-----
No telling what we might miss
when we finally come around
Let me tell you what the problem is
We eventually get knocked down
ch:
It's a badge of honor to be busy, to be tired
We all wear our weariness like a crown
And it's no wonder we fail to be inspired
It's OK, it's OK to slow down
v2:
They say stop and smell the roses
Stop and listen to the song
The only thing we know is
our time won't last long
ch:
It's a badge of honor to be busy, to be tired
We all wear our weariness like a crown
And it's no wonder we fail to be inspired
It's OK, it's OK to slow down
br:
Jesus slept in the middle of the waves
You can take a nap in the middle of the day
ch:
It's a badge of honor to be busy, to be tired
We all wear our weariness like a crown
And it's no wonder we fail to be inspired
It's OK, it's OK to slow down
