Pressure

Oh, let me apply the pressure, ayy

Start off 'fore we end up, get your march on

On your marks, get set, ready, gunshot

I put my hands in the air so you don't shoot

How in the world could you dare let a boss ruin?

Now do you care about all the eyes on you?

Now you wanna say we're tellin' lies on you

Same motherfuckers that be killin' off the planet

Are the same fuckers advising you

But true, this stuff is surprising to

See them profit just off of depriving youth

Why you wanna all dress lies as truth?

Have you ever seen what silence do?

I don't wanna see no violent troops

Puttin' out fires that haven't even been started

What the rahtid, man, I'm tired, too

But I don't lose, I refuse

Take a walk in my shoes

Or any other young Black person in this age (Peace signs)

All we ever know is pain

All we ever know is rage

That book starts on this page

Do not try to relate

It's either you do or you don't, shit (all are a, all are around us)

It's either you will or you won't

Hope you still got to engage

Don't take offence, it's too late

I say this to those who've never been poverty stricken

Always have a silver spoon to feed off (Peace signs)

"It may not be your fault," heard that line before

Leave that privilege shit at the door

I don't care about none of that shit

Say it louder, keep playin' my shit, what

(Peace signs, peace signs)

(All are a, all are around us)

Oh, keep applying pressure, ayy

Far from where I wanna be in this life

There's nothin' I can't be in this life

I just wanna do my ting and be free in this life

Blinded at times, can't see in this life

Just tryna pass the test like I want A-stars

Don't give me no C in this life

I'm just glad that my unborn kids

Won't have you as a daddy in this life

Hold your L, you prick

F you, nigga really thought he was a G in this life

Fuck that, not stressing, get a next ting

I don't wanna be angry in this life

Shit really got me down, but

I'm still gonna succeed in life (all are around us)

Plant the seed, by any means

Gettin' gold, no in-between

Born to fail, never was me

They never believed

Just had a dream and holes in my jeans

Down on my luck, still on my deen

Talkin' to God, he makin' me see

My reason to be here

Understanded that this is bigger than me

Watchin' the news and feelin' so helpless

Can't even help myself

I'm changin' up all this shit

Say it louder, keep playin' my shit

Man, I'm proud of how far we come

Won't stop till we livin' in bliss

Won't stop till you know we meant it

Play no games with these 'illionaires

Play no games with these niggas out here

Ain't afraid of these niggas out here

Livin' in your bed and not workin' for a check

Everybody's caught in the lifestyle

Michael Jordan steps, thinkin' you can jump the test

Everybody's caught on the lifestyle

Livin' in your bed and not workin' for a check

Everybody's caught in the lifestyle

Michael Jordan steps, thinkin' you can jump the test

Everybody's caught on the lifestyle

So you wanna be filthy rich then?

With yes men by your side

When you walk along this route

With yes, yes by, with yes men by your side

So you wanna be filthy rich then?

With yes men by your side

When you walk along this route

Go, go swimming 'gainst the tide

Go swim, swimming

Peace signs, peace signs

All are around us

All are a, all are a

Peace signs, peace signs

All are around us

Keep applying pressure, ayy
