Slow Down - Nahko and Medicine For The People

It’s been a long time

Comin' round and smoothing out the edges

And slowing down

And listening

What is important?

What is your focus?

Don’t you go and stumble now

Are you listening?

Horsetail, horsetail we can heal it all

With plant medicine

Body, mind, and spirit crying

Slow down, slow down, slow down

Making a broth for a feverish head

Nah, I’m no stranger to

Loneliness

Are you struggling?

Sweeter than lavender

Years in the making drink it up

It’s your nature

But I’m struggling

Coping with all of it

To hell with enlightenment

Clearly, I am no good at this

Who’s even listening?

Take it all on, like you know what you’re doing

Try not to lose yourself out there

Are you listening?
