Pressure Under Fire

(album: Revolution Come... Revolution Go - 2017)

Just another song about the same thing
So many have been written
By now you'd think we know better
Maybe just one lonely voice
Is never gonna be enough
We've all got to sing it together

Oh, we're all fighting the same fight
We're all traveling down life's road
There's only so much you can do by yourself
People, we got to share the load
Yeah, we got to share the load

The next sound you hear
Pressure under fire
Living in fear
Of what we don't understand
It all seems so clear
Pressure under fire
Ain't no way to live in this land

We all know how this ends
So many times, so many places
By now you'd think we'd have learned
From any one of those times
That it blew up in our faces
How many times can you be burned?

We keep on moving in the wrong direction
Oh, we keep on heading down the same old track
There's only so much you can take
Only so many times we can turn our backs
People, we can't keep turning our backs

The next sound you hear
Pressure under fire
Living in fear
Of what we don't understand
It all seems so clear
Pressure under fire
Ain't no way to live in this land

And a wise man said
Human race is the only race
Oh, you can't dispel darkness with darkness
It's been said so many times
We got to learn to work together
If we're gonna get out of this mess

Just another song about the same thing
So many have been sung
By now you'd think we know better

The next sound you hear
Pressure under fire
Living in fear
Of what we don't understand
It all seems so clear
Pressure under fire
Ain't no way to live in this land

Pressure under fire
Living in fear
Of what we don't understand
It all seems so clear
Pressure under fire
Ain't no way to live in this land
No way to live
Oh
No way to live in this land
