There's a new day on the horizon, there's a rising in the air Somewhere somebody's trying to tell me they care So I'm a lift my head to a new day, plant my feet on the ground Look at life in a new way and what's going down 'Cause today's the day I'm gonna take things slow Try and change my ways, forgive and let all that go Tell the ones I love what they need to know I'm gonna turn around, settle down and slow my roll Mixing loneliness and whiskey, heartache and cocaine Living life like a gypsy, lost and ashamed So I'm a look to the Lord as my witness, rest my hat on a shelf Trade these boots for forgiveness and find myself 'Cause today's the day I'm gonna take things slow Try to change my ways forgive and let all that go I tell the ones I love 'cause they need to know I'm gonna turn around, settle down And I can't believe 16 has long since past 'Cause I'm tired of running and never looking back And I won't survive if I live this life this fast, oh, no And today's the day I'm gonna take things slow Change my ways, forgive and let all that go Tell the ones I love what they need to know I'm gonna turn around, settle down and slow my roll Slow my roll, slow my roll Slow my roll, slow my roll Slow my roll, slow my roll Slow my roll, slow my roll, yeah
