“’Lay Down’ is a song about rest in a world that constantly begs us for more and more. I love that it feels aggressive and calls for taking challenges head-on, but still ‘lay down’ is the solution it comes to over and over again. It’s not an anthem about avoiding our problems– it’s a call to be faithful and to rest in the fact that God controls the outcome” said Trip Lee. “It’s scary when things are out of our control, but it can also be peaceful when we trust the One who’s in control.”

The opening of “Lay Down” sets the tone for the entire track, as a soothing group vocal sings, “Bullets may fly round, but I lay down; I feel safe and sound on solid ground; How can I lay down?”
These lyrics create a profound sense of peace amidst the chaos, highlighting the essence of trust and surrender. Trip Lee’s signature blend of thoughtful lyrics and smooth flow envelops listeners, captivating their attention as he narrates his own journey of learning to let go of control. With each verse, Trip artfully guides his audience through the intricacies of finding solace in God’s hands.

Lyrics
[Intro]
Bullets may fly round, but I lay down
I feel safe and sound on solid ground
How can I lay down-down-down-down?
[Verse 1]
Face up, face up, daddy told me “face up”
Face up, face up, wifey told me “face up”
Coach just told me “lace up,” dodging shots and lasers
Cut through folly swinging high machetes sharp as razors
My lane today, try not to complain today
All that pride and shame today? I take off no plane delay
Life get messy, hit it with that hesi
Though this walk could test me, still I love it – Lucy, Desi
Busy as I ever been, I need so much medicine
Tell sabbath to let me in, my Savior gon’ get me in
On my way to high notes, then somehow them pitches bend
If I don’t face it, it get dangerous like liquor blends
I’m a citizen of that place where my mission ends
That drives us, though sometimes we get tired like Michelins
If they listening, they might say, “not this again”
Here go the secrets to my biggest wins
[Chorus]
I just lie down, I just lie down
All that big talk, let it die down
I just lie down, I just lie down
When that fear starts, cut them lies down
Lay, lay, lay down
Lay, lay, lay down
Lay, lay, lay down
Lay, lay, lay down
[Verse 2]
Face up, face up, mama told me “face up”
Face up, face up, tell them they can’t break us
Turn away forever pleasures? I call that a pay cut
Stick it to us, stain us, still the truth will train us
Bruh, my daddy owns the world, how you gon’ son me?
They want my race on their track, but they can’t run me
Hark, I don’t wanna hear, “Depart from me”
Rode on Noah’s ark, dodging arson feels like art to me
If I ain’t slumbered in a while, yeah
I throw myself into exile, yeah
Terrors turn to errors in all my files, yeah
I would perish on that lonely island
[Chorus]
I just lie down, I just lie down
All that big talk, let it die down
I just lie down, I just lie down
When that fear starts, cut them lies down
Lay, lay, lay down
Lay, lay, lay down
Lay, lay, lay down
Lay, lay, lay down
[Outro]
Bullets may fly round but I lay down
I feel safe and sound on solid ground
