    This song provides so much nourishment to the spirit. First time I heard it settled over me like a warm blanket. It resonated with this chapter of my life so much so ... I can see beyond the killer track and amazing vocals to the soul of the lyrics. This is a testament to how much Jakob gives to his music. In this song he hides nothing... it’s all laid bare.
    What John Mayer’s Gravity did for many ...Slow Up will do for the next generation. It is my humble opinion that this song is Jakob’s Gravity🙏🏽 #soulfood #jacobbanks #lyrics

  • @dwaynedmullins
    @dwaynedmullins Před rokem

    As a father of a son and a daughter ... now teens ... I recall the moments of their early childhood and their innocence. The way they are seeing their place in the world ... I wish I could protect them from the need to grow up and face the things that I know they will eventually have to face. But those things make us strong. But still .... they are my babies, and wish they wouldn't grow up so fast. This song makes me shed tears ... and makes me think deeply on the adequacy of being a parent to a child that will live in a world we can't yet fathom. And I recall telling them they can be anything the want to be, and I'll be in their corner as long as I have breath.
