Slip Away Lyrics

Just a country girl

Living in the Deep South

You've made your parents proud

Without a sign of doubt

You was very polite

Making straight As in school

Getting your education

Couldn't afford to be a fool

You was known as a brain

Who had a gang of knowledge

Your folks didn't have much

But they ensured that you make it to college

You've got your PhD

And now everything's on track

You've refused to let anything

Or anyone hold you back

Don't let your blessings

Don't let your blessings slip away

Don't let your blessings

Don't let your blessings slip away

Now you're in your 20s

And your parents have passed away

And you're living in the city

Expecting everything to go your way

You're walking on this Earth

With your head up in the sky

And you're labeled as a magnet

Tempting guys at a blink of an eye

Though you got a cute face

With a real nice figure

But you swear up and down that you're

God's gift to all of these (CHILL) yeah, I know

You think you got it going on

And You think you've got it made

You've better readjust your attitude

Before it all starts to fade

Don't let your blessings

Don't let your blessings slip away

Don't let your blessings

Don't let your blessings slip away

You can't look in the mirror

Cause now you're all old and gray

Steady trying to revive

Everything you've done back in the day

Though your so-called friends

Have vanished and disappeared

Now all you do is waste precious time

On social media shedding tears

So you take it to the streets

And try your best to flirt

Every man rejects you, cause your

Rep is lower than dirt

You need to dry your weeping eyes

And get on your knees and pray

Ask the Lord for forgiveness, and let Him

Guide you for the rest of your days

Don't let your blessings

Don't let your blessings slip away

Don't let your blessings

Don't let your blessings slip away
