From the recording Soul for Sail
"Lowdown" is the Anthem for the War on Cancer and was written to reach, heal, and comfort anyone facing tragedy, particularly to those trying to navigate the psychological obstacle that is a terminal illness. Blake has partnered with "The Cancer Fund" for this release, donating the streaming proceeds to support those affected by cancer. It’s from the heart, and from experience, as Blake lost his father to Cancer. We're grateful to share, and thank you.
Lyrics
**LOWDOWN
[VERSE]
I NEED TO TALK TO YOU, CUZ I FEEL YOU CRASHING...AND LIFE IS BETTER WHEN WE’RE LAUGHIN’
THIS CAN'T BE FIXED, ONLY CARRIED, SOMETIMES YOU DON'T HAVE TO KEEP YOUR HEAD HIGH ...EVEN BRIGHT LIGHTS GO LOW
[CHORUS] (IT’S THE LOW DOWN)
MEET ME IN TEN...I’LL PICK YOU UP, WHEN YOU’RE FEELING LOW, GET YOUR HEELS HIGH, AND BABY LET IT GO
MEET ME IN TEN...IF YOU’RE SCARED YOU CAN LET IT SHOW, IT’S NOT A JOURNEY IT’S A WAR
[VERSE}
YOU’RE FIGHTING...BUT IT CAN’T STEAL YOUR STORY. IT’S JUST ONE WORD
AND YOUR WORLD IS CHANGED FOREVER, WE ALL JUST WANNA BE FREE...GOD THE GRAVITY’S GOT ME
[CHORUS] (LOW LOW DOWN)
MEET ME IN TEN...I’LL PICK YOU UP, WHEN YOU’RE FEELING LOW, GET YOUR HEELS HIGH, AND BABY LET IT GO
MEET ME IN TEN...IF YOU’RE SCARED YOU CAN LET IT SHOW, THIS AIN'T A JOURNEY IT’S A WAR
[BRIDGE] (I IMAGINE A BREAKDOWN OR HALFTIME BEAT OR SOMETHING INTERESTING HERE TO DIFFERENTIATE FROM THE VERSES)
YOU HAVEN’T SAID A WORD
GUESS YOU’RE REALLY MISSIN’ HOME, THEY SAY “YOU DON'T HAVE FAR TO GO AND THAT YOU’RE NOT ALONE”, YET…
IT SEEMS LIKE THEY SHOULD KNOW, THIS AIN'T A JOURNEY, IT’S A WAR, AND NO ONE WINS
[CHORUS] X2 (LOW LOW DOWN)
MEET ME IN TEN...I’LL PICK YOU UP, IF YOU’RE FEELING LOW, GET YOUR HEELS HIGH, AND BABY LET IT GO
MEET ME IN TEN...IF YOU’RE SCARED YOU CAN LET IT SHOW, THIS AIN'T A JOURNEY IT’S A WAR
